Beau Rivage sets a painterly spot against a wavy line, echoing the pattern on the pots in its companion design Collioure. The marks are loose and hand-drawn, so the wall keeps the informality of a sketchbook rather than the regularity of a printed repeat.
The name remembers the hotel in Nice where Matisse stayed, and the pattern shares that Riviera lightness. Printed in the United Kingdom on 150gsm paper, it is an easy, good-natured wallpaper for bedrooms, bathrooms and children's rooms, and a natural partner to the fuller patterns in the collection, giving the eye somewhere calm to rest.
