Maelis Green
Maelis Vert is a botanical wallpaper in green. The design is built from foliage, drawn at a scale that keeps individual leaves readable across a wall rather than dissolving into an allover texture. Green carries the whole pattern, so the effect is one continuous planted surface instead of a motif scattered on a contrasting ground.
Pattern and color
Leaf shapes overlap and layer, which gives the pattern depth and keeps the repeat from announcing itself too quickly. Because the palette stays within one color family, the wall holds together as a single field, and the drawing does the work that a second color would otherwise do. Green also sits comfortably next to wood, rattan and unbleached textiles, and it gives brass or black metal fittings something solid to stand against. These are premium quality wallpapers. If you are comparing options, the wider green selection and the dark green range are both worth looking through.
Style and rooms
The style is exotic and tropical, close to the dense planting of a jungle print. It suits rooms furnished simply, where the walls are meant to be the main pattern, and it pairs well with plain upholstery, a solid rug and real plants. Used on all four walls it makes a room feel enclosed; used on one, it frames a sofa, a bed or a fireplace without crowding the rest of the space.
- Living room walls, whole room or a single wall
- Behind a sofa, sideboard or dining table
- Hallways and stairwells, where a strong pattern is only seen in passing
- Alcoves, chimney breasts and other small enclosed areas
In a living room the foliage reads clearly from across the space, while up close the layered leaves give the eye something to follow. More designs in this vein are collected in the tropical range.
