To The Walls

Wallpaper is an intriguing design concept. Once popular in the seventies, it quickly became dated and the first thing you rip out of a newly purchased home. I am still haunted by the orange and blue bird motif that attacked the kitchen in my parents house. But now, wallpaper is back in a big way. Ranging from subtle to bold, prints all over are sprawling across walls and making a name for themselves…yet again.

Wallpaper Ideas for the Bold

Love this sitting area!

Probably the coolest nursery I have ever seen…and the cowhide rug, yes please!

My favorite of the Bold

For the Traditionalist

Of course my favorite is this modern take on a classic pattern

For those afraid of the wallpaper leap, a few subtle ways to adapt it into your home

Take it to the ceiling

Or to the stairs

To an entryway or strategically placed piece of art (the left is Chloe Sevigny’s home)

And last but not least, for the glamour girl

Whimsical vanity space

I die over this geometric space

A little too much and a lot of perfect

Great mix of feminine and masculine in a master bedroom

Perfectly Girly

I WILL have this wallpaper in a guest bath, so chic
