Maximilien Sage
Also available in:
Maximilien Sage is a plain wallpaper in a turquoise green shade. There is no motif and no repeat to line up, so the color runs evenly across the wall and reads as one continuous surface. The tone sits between blue and green, cool but not cold, and it shifts slightly depending on how much daylight a room gets.
Color and pattern
Because the design is solid, the color does all the work. Turquoise green of this weight is strong enough to be noticed but calm enough to cover four walls without crowding a room. It also makes a good backdrop for things you want seen: framed prints, open shelving, a dark wood cabinet or pale upholstery. If you prefer to keep one wall quieter than the rest, this kind of unpatterned ground is easier to combine with a patterned paper than another motif would be. More options of this type are in the solid range, and related shades are grouped under light green. These are premium quality wallpapers.
Style and rooms
The look belongs to minimalism: single color, no ornament, nothing that dates quickly. It suits rooms built on few pieces of furniture and clear surfaces, and it works alongside white paint, black metal fittings and natural wood.
- Living room walls, including behind a sofa
- Hallways and entry areas
- Home offices and study corners
- A single wall behind a media unit
In a living room the even color helps furniture and artwork stand out instead of competing with the wall. In an office it keeps the field of view plain, which is useful at a desk you sit at for hours. In a hallway, where there is rarely space for much else, the color alone is enough to finish the space.
