Magnolia Sage Green
Also available in:
Magnolia Sage Green is a floral wallpaper with magnolia blossoms and foliage drawn across a soft gray ground. The flowers are rendered in sage green with gray shading, so the design stays within a narrow color range and reads as one quiet surface rather than a set of competing motifs. Branches and leaves link the blooms together, which keeps the repeat from looking like scattered spots on the wall.
Pattern and finish
The print is matte, with no sheen to pick up light from windows or lamps, so the green holds the same tone in the morning and under artificial light at night. A textured surface adds a fine relief you can feel with your hand, and that structure softens the printed edges of the petals while helping to hide minor unevenness in the plaster. The drawing style leans botanical rather than graphic, closer to a plate from an old plant book than to a repeated stencil. More work in this vein sits in the botanical collection, and the wider run of magnolia designs is worth comparing. These are premium quality wallpapers.
Style and rooms
The muted palette suits farmhouse rooms, vintage schemes and interiors with an exotic slant, where the magnolia motif has an East Asian influence. It sits well against natural wood, rattan, painted cabinetry and unbleached linen, and plain upholstery in cream or charcoal keeps the floral pattern as the only figure in the room.
- Living rooms, including the wall behind a sofa
- Bedrooms, whole room or one wall
- Kitchens, dining rooms and hallways
- Home offices, bathrooms and nurseries
In a dining room the pattern gives the walls something to look at without crowding a table setting, and in a nursery the low-contrast green stays calm and grows up with the room.
