The Knife Thrower by Henri Matisse Canvas PrintRooms go quieter when hot pink is this sure of itself. Matisse's cut out shapes hold the wall on their own a dancing figure, scattered leaves, a tall lilac vase all set against warm cream. The room gets a confident shot of colour without feeling busy. The pink does the talking, the blue keeps it lively, and the black shapes give it weight so the whole thing doesn't float away. It works above a sofa, a sideboard, or at the end of a hallway where you

woven rugs and linen in oat tones

or a coat hook line

Painted walls and chalky off-whites suit it best

Hang it where the daylight is strongest — above a console in the hallway
