Frosted Palm II Poster

Two palm fronds overlap behind frosted glass in this photograph by Junhao, one sharper and one dissolving into the haze. The palette is warm, mostly cream and soft brown, with the green surfacing only in the clearest parts of the leaves. There is more depth here than in its companion piece, since the two fronds sit at different distances from the surface. The upright format suits an office, a study wall or a narrow space where something quiet works better than something bright. Warm neutrals, oak and natural textiles all sit easily beside it.

On an office wall or a quiet corner, the soft fronds could take the edge off a working room. The green, cream and brown palette pairs nicely with oak, natural linen and warm neutral paint. A light wooden frame keeps the haze soft, while a darker frame would give the leaves more definition. Hang it beside its companion frond for a pair that reads as one piece from a distance.
