Attention to Detail: De Gournay Wallpaper

Wallpaper is in, more so than it has been for a while. You are starting to see all kinds of styles from classic to contemporary and sophisticated and even some super unique trends.

I personally have a love for De Gournay Wallpaper.  All are truly historical, timeless, elegant works of art that will transform any room into something amazing.  These hand-painted wall coverings are truly exquisite. De Gournay is famous for its iconic Chinoiserie motifs.

De Gournay wallpaper patterns and papers are unique in that you can customize your design by selecting from various backgrounds of fine papers or silks. Since each panel is painted by hand, the possibilities for pattern and color are truly endless.  You often see these papers in traditional spaces, however I have used this paper against modern surroundings as well and it is beautiful.

You will continue to see the following trends for 2013, which include:

  • Botanicals and floral designs in large, widely spaced patterns and muted tones with splashes of colour
  • Emerald Green, rich teal, warm berry and reserved taupe are the popular colour choices for this season and can be mixed and matched to stunning effect.
  • Flock wallpapers are back in style, as are other textured wallpapers like embossed patterns in either floral or geometric designs.
  • Wall art in the form of murals and decals can be added to any room for a bit of spice.

Check out the attention to detail in these images, it truly brings the beauty of nature indoors which I absolutely go crazy for.
