Yann Blue Cream
Also available in:
Yann Creme Blue is a botanical wallpaper with blue and gray plant forms set on a white ground. The drawing is open rather than dense, so the white base stays visible between the motifs and the pattern keeps a light overall weight on the wall. Blue carries the outlines, while gray fills in the quieter parts of the design and keeps the contrast from turning sharp.
Surface and finish
The finish is matte, with no sheen, so the blue reads the same on a sunlit wall as it does in a corner lit by a lamp. The surface is smooth, without relief, which suits the fine botanical line work and makes wiping dust off the wall straightforward. A smooth face also keeps the pattern crisp across large runs, which matters when the design is hung over a full wall rather than a single panel. These are premium quality wallpapers. More designs of this kind are gathered in the botanical range, and the blue and white selection is worth comparing against it.
Style and rooms
The white ground and muted blue place this paper in farmhouse schemes and in Scandinavian rooms built on pale wood, white paint and plain textiles. It sits well with painted cabinetry, rattan, brass fittings and unbleached linen. Solid-colored furniture works best alongside it, since the pattern already supplies the detail.

In a living room the open spacing lets framed pictures hang against it without crowding, and in a hallway the light ground keeps a space with little daylight from closing in.
French design meets German engineering, made entirely in Europe.
