A classic checkerboard pattern alternates between cream and deep black squares in a balanced grid, creating an optical rhythm across the composition. The surface shows subtle distressing and weathering throughout, giving the geometric precision a worn, vintage quality that softens the stark contrast between light and dark. In a modern living space or creative studio seeking graphic contrast with historical depth. Printed on soft, lightweight polyester with hand-sewn edges and made to order. Original artwork at room scale, light enough to hang almost anywhere and move with you.
