Mathilde Pink Cream
Also available in:
Mathilde Creme Pink is a floral wallpaper on a cream ground, with botanical shapes drawn in pink, beige and grey. The flowers and leaves are spread evenly across the surface rather than grouped into large clusters, so the pattern holds together when you look at a full wall. The grey keeps the pink from reading as sugary, and the beige ties the two together.
Pattern and finish
The surface is matte, so light falls flat on it and the cream stays the same shade in a sunlit room and a shaded corner alike. A textured surface adds fine relief you can feel with your hand, and that structure softens the printed edges of the petals and stems. It also helps hide minor unevenness in the wall behind it. These are premium quality wallpapers. If the drawing style appeals, the wider floral collection covers similar ground, and the cream range shows what else works on this kind of pale base.
Style and rooms
The pattern belongs to farmhouse schemes and vintage interiors. It sits well with painted wood, rattan, worn leather and brass hardware, and it gives plain linen curtains or a solid-color rug something to sit against. Because the tones are light, the paper does not shrink a small room.
- Living rooms, including the wall behind a sofa
- Bedrooms, on all four walls or one
- Kitchens, dining rooms and hallways
- Offices, bathrooms and nurseries
In a bedroom the small-scale flowers read as quiet from the bed and detailed up close. In a hallway the cream ground keeps a windowless run of wall from going dark, and in a nursery the muted pink still suits the room once the crib is gone.
