I’m on the hunt for an online wallpaper source. I’m diggin’ these by Modern Chic Home. Unfortunately, none of these are what I’m needing. But maybe someone else can use these…

Double Take

We are all lovers of Target. Their ingenious way of making high-end trends for the everyday person has proven to be very successful. Recruiting such designers as Liberty of London, Isaac Mizrahi, and Orla Kiely has definitely set them apart. In my home designs I do both high end as well as budget friendly. So as I’ve been shopping I’ve noticed something interesting with a few of Target’s designs.

While not identical I think this wall covering by Romo looks very similar to Target’s. Romo vs Target:

Or these tw0…Romo vs Target:

These fabrics look almost identical. Target doesn’t advertise that they’re Thomas Paul designs, so I wonder if they’re *ahem* designed by anyone else.

Creeper

I know there’s a lot of love for Edward, but isn’t this decor kind of creepy?

Decor Maison

Two things I love about the new collection from DecorMaison:

the new collection
the new add campaign

Taking a cross section of a camper and placing it in the environment the wallpaper was inspired from is so clever. I love it.

Framing Wallpaper

A client of mine wants “fun wallpaper,” but she’s a little nervous A) with the commitment B) if it’ll be too overbearing/busy. So we’re going to frame it with nice, thick moulding like this:

Julien Macdonald

Fashion designer Julien Macdonald has opened a new line of wallcoverings. UK-based wallcovering and home decor company Grahm & Brown now sells some of his designs. I understand these prints are pretty bold, but like I keep saying. A wallpapered accent wall is replacing that red accent wall.

Ice Cream wall art

This is what our place is missing.

Drawers on the wall.

Random drawers on the wall are the best. :) Drawerment is a composition of drawers collected from old office furniture. The installation enables viewers to find their own story in it. It was designed by Hubero Kororo Design.

Wall stuff.

Check out all these wall vynil decorations. My wife can tell you when, where and how to use them. I’m not the interior designer. But as a graphic designer, I can appreciate this stuff. Tado’s work is amazing.

Use of Patriotic Colors

With Memorial Day coming up this weekend I found it only fitting to bring in some red, white, and blue. Even though this designer is from the Netherlands (who has the same colors as we do), her use of colors is so clever. These pictures are from textile designer Sigrid Calon. I love her modern twist she’s incorporated.

I can’t understand it cuz it’s in a different language…but here it is.

Tile Tattoos

Want to spruce up your kitchen but a little afraid of commitment? Or concerned that your landlord will penalize you for adding color to your pad? How rude. Mibo has tile tattoos that can be removed and are completely waterproof! You simply stick them to your 15cmx15cm white tile, and viola! An adorable, new backsplash!
