Olivette Green
Olivette Green is a graphic wallpaper in green, built on clear drawn shapes rather than florals or scenery. The design keeps a regular rhythm across the wall, so the pattern stays readable from across a room and settles into the background when you stand close to it. The green carries the whole design, with the graphic work giving it structure.
Surface and finish
The finish is matte, so the wall reflects almost no light and the green holds the same depth in morning daylight as it does under lamps in the evening. The surface is smooth, with no relief or woven grain, which suits a graphic pattern because the lines stay crisp and nothing interrupts them. A smooth surface also wipes down more easily than a raised one and sits flat against the wall, so seams are less noticeable on a long run. Other designs with the same flat surface are gathered in the smooth range. These are premium quality wallpapers.
Style and rooms
The look is contemporary, which puts it alongside plain upholstery, pale or dark wood, metal frames and simple lighting. Green works with natural materials such as rattan and linen, and it holds up next to black, white and warm neutrals without the pattern competing with them. It suits a modern scheme where the walls carry the pattern and the furniture stays quiet.

Placed behind sofa the graphic repeat gives a seating area a defined edge, and in an office the green reads as calm behind a desk and a screen.
