Wael Light Blue
Waël Light Blue is an animal-motif wallpaper on a light blue ground, with the figures picked out in several colors so the design reads as multicolor rather than single-tone. The pale blue background keeps the wall bright, and the scattered motifs give the surface interest without covering it edge to edge.
Pattern and finish
The surface is matte, so it reflects no light back into the room and the blue holds the same value in daylight and under lamps. A smooth surface keeps the outlines of the motifs crisp and makes the paper easy to wipe over with a soft cloth. These are premium quality wallpapers. The design sits in the Animals family and belongs with contemporary schemes rather than traditional ones, since the drawing is simple and the color placement is graphic. If the shade is what drew you in, the rest of the Light blue selection is worth comparing side by side.
Rooms and pairings
The pale ground suits rooms that need to stay light, and the motifs give a plain wall something to look at without adding visual weight.
- Living rooms, bedrooms and dining rooms
- Kitchens, hallways and home offices
- Bathrooms, kids' rooms and nurseries
In a Living room it works on a single wall with plain paint elsewhere, and it pairs well with white or natural wood furniture, gray upholstery and simple shelving. A Nursery is another straightforward use, because the animal figures hold a child's attention while the light blue keeps the room calm enough to sleep in. It also holds up in an Office, where the quiet background does not compete with a desk and screens.
