Oreane Vert Clair
Oreane Light Green is a botanical wallpaper in green, built from leaf forms spread across a lighter ground. The drawing stays plant-based rather than geometric, so the wall reads as foliage seen at close range. Because the greens sit in a narrow range, the pattern keeps an even overall tone from a few steps back and only separates into individual leaves when you stand near it.
Pattern and color
Green carries the whole design, which makes it straightforward to place alongside wood, rattan, cane and off-white paint. The botanical motif has an exotic, tropical character, so it pairs well with large-leaved houseplants, woven baskets and simple linen. If you want the pattern to do the work, keep the rest of the room plain; if you would rather it sat in the background, hang it on all four walls and let furniture break it up. More designs in this direction are gathered in the tropical range, and the full selection of light green patterns is worth comparing before you decide. These are premium quality wallpapers.
Where it works
In a living room the leaf pattern holds up well on a single wall, particularly one that already has shelving or pictures on it. A bedroom takes the green easily, since the tone is light enough not to close the room in. It also suits a hallway, where a pattern gives a short, windowless run of wall something to look at.
- Living room walls, including behind a sofa
- Bedrooms, whole room or one wall
- Hallways and entryways
- Home offices and study corners
Behind a desk, the repeat is regular enough to stay quiet during the working day while still giving the room a clear color. Plain curtains, a solid rug and painted furniture all sit comfortably against it.
