Zephyrine Black White
Also available in:
Zephyrine Black White is a floral and botanical wallpaper drawn in white, gray and black. Leaves and stems are outlined against a light ground, with the darker tones filling in shadow and detail, so the design reads as a line drawing rather than a solid block of color. Because there is no additional color in the mix, the pattern stays graphic and keeps its definition from across a room.
Pattern and surface
The finish is matte, which holds the contrast between the black lines and the pale background steady instead of letting reflections wash parts of it out. The surface is textured, giving a fine relief you can feel under your hand and helping to soften small unevenness in the wall beneath. The plant forms place it in the jungle side of botanical design, and the strict two-tone treatment means it also belongs with other black and white wallpapers. More designs built on leaves and flowers are gathered in the floral range. These are premium quality wallpapers.
Style and rooms
The style is exotic and tropical, but the restricted palette keeps it easy to combine. It sits well with black metal frames, gray textiles, wood furniture and white paint, and it does not fight with patterned cushions or rugs the way a multicolored print would. Used on one wall it gives a clear focal point; used across a whole room it works as a dense, even backdrop.
- Living rooms, including as an accent wall
- Bedrooms and nurseries
- Kitchens and dining rooms
- Hallways, home offices and bathrooms
In a living room the pattern gives shelving and art something to sit against without adding another color to the scheme. In a hallway the light ground keeps a narrow run of wall from feeling closed in, while the black detail stops it from looking bare.
