Colour and display

A strong blue background makes the bright golden-yellow figure the dominant accent. A pale grey fan-shaped motif softens the contrast, while black linework and narrow bands of white, black, yellow, blue, green and red add definition and movement below. This sunny, predominantly blue-and-yellow palette would suit a Mediterranean-inspired living room, a creative workspace or a sports-themed gallery wall, particularly alongside white walls, pale wood and blue textiles with a few warm yellow accessories.
