Inspired by Wallpaper

I happen to think our industry has a yin yang relationship with wallpaper.  They are technically our competition, yes, but I feel that each industry frequently helps inspire the other creatively.  I came upon the Wall & Decò line via a post on Decor8 and they are so hip and creative — the images do get the creative juices stirring.

Black and White, always striking.  Love how these two (top, bottom) work so well.  It’s nice how the design within the giraffe is less spotty, more unique.

I like the unique pattern underneath, the overall stencil on top with the pattern ending unexpectedly. Gorgeous dress, too.

Love this large "fuzzy" graphic and the almost-sepia tone it has.

(Above) What a versatile graphic pattern. Nice color variation on the right.

Effortlessly chic.

Oh, I know this is not for everyone but look at the elements. Overall, neutral distressed pattern in the background and a colorful and unusual work of art adding an enjoyable moment.  I think it’s perfect for the right boutique hotel or restaurant.  Would LOVE to tackle something like this. You?

So there you have it. The line runs quite a few styles but it’s absolutely unique.  Inspiring, no?  Especially when you want to get out of that Same-O, Same-O rut and you have a fabulous designer and/or client to do so with.  Let me know your thoughts on these – I’m very curious.  Have a wonderful weekend!
