How to decorate with wallpapers
Henry, wallpaper by Marcel WandersThis taupe and gold wallpaper is a masculine stripe that is subtle and understated. Henry features clear glosses to contrast the matt background against an accent detail of a fine metallic stripe. The product is paste to the walls so hangs in half the time of normal decorating. In my ever pursuit for the perfect textile for a particular project, I came across some pretty swanky wallpapers from two distinguished interior designers, Marcel Wanders and Kelly Hoppen. One of the wallpapers (which I won’t name) was a perfect match for this fabric I purchased from Kravet.Iskat by Kelly HoppenThroughout most of her collection, I noticed that Kelly’s fusion of Eastern & Western influence was greatly weaved throughout her work. Her new collection uses paste the wall technology for quick and easy hanging and removal. Kelly Hoppen’s trademark use of screening in this collection features four different panel designs. They all look fresh and bright, but can also be painted or varnished to make different effects. My other favorite was from award-winning designer Marcel Wanders. His wallpaper designs often excite and inflame my imagination. And so it came as no surprise that his most recent vivacious collection is able to make a real design statement in any home.
Ladder Stripe, Kelly HoppenThis organic stripe is highlighted with metallic detailing on the stria that really catches the light.Isabella by Marcel WandersGraham & Brown’s Marcel Wanders wallpaper collection features beautifully intricate patterns fused with bold colors to create iconic wallpaper designs. I’m not sure if I will ever get to use his ‘Isabella” pattern, but I certainly admire it for its embodying large-scale Celtic motifs against a backdrop of Tartan. Isabella is a trendsetting statement design. It is bold with the intricate red wallpaper design. It is also a paste wall covering which means more beauty for half the workload.
