Severine Brown
Also available in:
Séverine Brown is a botanical wallpaper that sets pink blooms and foliage against a brown ground. The plant forms are drawn rather than photographic, and the two shades work at different weights: the brown carries the background and holds the pattern together, while the pink picks out the flowers and keeps them readable from across a room.
Surface and finish
The finish is matte, so the wall reflects very little light and the brown stays even from morning to evening instead of turning glossy in patches. The surface is smooth, with no relief or woven structure, which keeps the printed detail of the leaves and petals crisp and makes the paper easy to wipe down along baseboards and switch plates. A smooth ground also sits flat against level plaster, so seams are less noticeable on long runs. These are premium quality wallpapers. If you want to compare it with related drawings, look through the wider botanical designs and the more focused leaf patterns.
Style and rooms
The colour pairing and the hand-drawn plant motifs place this squarely in farmhouse schemes and in vintage rooms built on older furniture. It goes with warm woods, cane, brass fittings and cream or off-white paint on woodwork. Because the ground is dark, pale upholstery and light curtains read clearly against it, and framed prints in simple wood or gilt frames hold their own.
- Living rooms, including a single accent wall
- Hallways and stairwells
- Home offices and studies
In a living room the pattern suits the wall behind a sofa, where furniture covers the lower section and the flowers stay in view above it. In a home office the darker ground reduces glare behind a screen, and in a hallway it gives a narrow space something to look at without taking up floor room.
