Andre Cripps’ painting New Forest is a large, abstract and fabulous cityscape that would look very comfortable in a modern space with large windows and lots of light. It would be ideal if spaces are designed around art. We buy art we love and that’s an excellent starting point for interior design.
The painting is mainly blue, black and white. Pale wood floors , off-white walls and a deep blue accent wall to pop the painting would be ideal. Mike Smalley’s two Untitled watercolours would be very effective elsewhere in the room.
Furniture should have clean but interesting lines. The colour of lamps chairs and accessories can provide pops of colour but sparingly - less is more. I think an ideal environment would be a downtown high-rise with wide-ranging views of the city. Perfect.
