A Pop of Geometric 

A Scandi-inspired interior is the perfect blank canvas for a pop of colourful geometric. And there’s no artist who does it better than colour extraordinaire, Sonia Delaunay. Don’t forget you can catch the EY Exhibition about Sonia Delaunay at the Tate Modern, until 9th August 2015.
