Editor’s Note

We are very proud that there is so much British design from world leading brands, as well as being involved in British manufacture.

The launch of the new Style Library showroom in Chelsea recently was also exciting and the team were very impressed to see all the brands under one roof, which has also inspired us to present our Brewers’ showrooms in a slightly different way – watch this space! Finally I was thrilled to see Petronella Hall, the winner of last year’s My Country Homes Business Awards, bring her designs to life on wallpaper – Great job Petra, we know our customers are going to love your designs!

So now is the time to get decorating - enjoy it!

Front Cover:

We know that our customers are passionate about wallpaper but we also believe you enjoy learning more about the inspiration that the designers use to create design and the history behind others. Wallpaper is the ultimate “art” on a wall and with so much choice it is fascinating to learn more about the various brands and how they approach each new collection they create. The designs speak for themselves but I do hope you will enjoy reading the backstories and find them helpful when choosing your wallpapers.

We have been amazed with how this trend has developed. From the original bestselling ‘Flamingos’ design in 2004 by Cole & Son, we have seen an explosion in wallpaper designs featuring flamingo motifs. You can currently find flamingos on pretty much everything from beach towels, and glasses to garden ornaments, jewellery and clothing. This enjoyable trend continues with sophisticated designs and fun, quirky images proving equally popular with our customers. The elegant family groups of flamingos in the original Cole & Son design, has continued from strength to strength and now has been refreshed with a rich, dark charcoal background. Whilst one of our bestselling design in recent months, has been the outrageously bold, all-over coral pink Albany Flamingos wallpaper. Who says we only put beige on our walls?! Seriously though this has proven really popular for bedrooms, (since its appearance in the TV programme, 5 WALLPAP ERDIRECT.COM Eastenders), utility rooms and kitchens.

N

ow a welcome and common harbinger of summer, the Dutch Tulip bulb was once a highly sought after commodity and obsessive collectors in the 17th century traded in them for exorbitant figures. Such was the exotic nature of these flowers that they also became the subject of many still life paintings of that era and continue to be a stunningly versatile motif for interiors. Named for the star shaped tulip, the new wallpaper collection has of course a beautiful tulip floral design ‘Tulipa Stellata’ which together with the ‘Delft Flower’ pattern, with its rich abundance of autumnal flowers in a dramatic style, evokes and celebrates the Dutch Masters’ paintings. Add complementing paint shades such as Purple Basil or Morning Frost for added sensuality and sophistication.

TREND: CITRUS INFUSION

Floaty, Flirtatious and Flamboyant

New Floral designs for Autumn Farrow & Ball have unveiled their latest collection of new wallpapers. The British craftsmen in both paint and paper have taken their inspiration from the current trends of texture, maximalism and returning to nature to bring us some beautiful new floral patterns. As experts in paint colour they are perfectly placed to create three new contemporary floral wallpapers that are richly textured with paint, with uplifting twists on traditional patterns using modern colours. They have experimented with a range of scales and have created their largest motif design with this flamboyant floral trail, Helleborus with a repeat of over 127cm. This is a design certain to cause a stir but as ever with its range of colours from soft chalky neutral to bold deep statement shades, this pattern is useable in a wide variety of home settings. Taking its name from the Greek goddess of fruit and flowers, Hegemone has a more traditional scale, and is a wonderful flirtatiously, trailing all-over showy mid scale floral pattern. Created with a thick, textured paint giving an almost hand block printed effect and a luxuriant look. Finally, but certainly not last, named for the Chile flowering desert, the driest place in the world, which every 5 to 7 years is a fantastic festival of flowers, Atacama, has a playful ‘boho’ floaty feel with its intricate botanical detail creating a pleasing, gentle background effect, highlighted with stunning metallic paints.

Stunning translations of GP & J Baker’s designs sourced from its world renowned archive are adapted in the design studio to create contemporary wallcoverings both in scale and in colour. A design with its origins in one of the early English toiles in the GP & J Baker archive, is the enchanting ‘Water’s Edge’.

‘Nympheus’, an enduring GP & J Baker classic, is now a fabulous wallpaper design. Inspired by a Chinese Ming dynasty painting on silk in the British Museum showing lotus leaves and birds, it was commissioned and painted in 1915 by William Turner, an important textile designer of the time for GP & J Baker. Another great adaptation is ‘Ferns’ which was created by the freelance designer Joseph M Doran who set up a studio in the early 1900s. The design is based on amazingly accurate botanical drawings published in Curtis’ Flora Londinensis between 1777 and 1798 (a record of plants growing within a ten mile radius of London). ‘Ferns’ became an instant favourite on both sides of the Atlantic, and has now been printed through generations becoming a GP & J Baker timeless classic.

he possibilities are endless with this trend, distressed plaster effects, granite, origami paper images, gold fretwork, typeface and old-fashioned haberdashery drawers, together with a wealth of visual effects and digital photography images. Although perhaps in the main this is a contemporary, trend with the industrial elements giving a stronger, more masculine feel, it can be softened with the use of texture and colour in your accessories. And the delicate nature of the sketch effect in the origami designs and metal fretwork adds a pleasing feminine feel too and so perfect for more organic, cosy interiors too.

Wallpaper: Casadeco, Slate, 65549000, ÂŁ38.65 per roll

Wallpaper: Albany, Vintage Drawers, 11970, ÂŁ12.98 per roll

The key to this trend is to use the wallcovering as another texture within your scheme which you can either reference elsewhere in your room or contrast against. So for instance using the origami paper, with origami shaped vases and knick knacks creates a cohesive scheme tying the elements together, whilst contrasting a multi-coloured plaster effect wallcovering with delicate, feminine accessories and furnishings creates a pleasing, looser style of interior design. WALLPAP ERDIRECT.COM 29


INDUSTRIAL TEXTURES With the changes in modern printing techniques becoming ever more sophisticated; silicon beaded and coarsely textured wallcoverings, deeply textured and multi-layered vinyls with metallic and holographic effects are now all possible and becoming ever more affordable. There is seemingly no end to the new effects that designers can interpret, whether it is natural textures or deconstructing man-made metal effects this trend is sure to continue for the foreseeable future. So if flowers, motifs and geometrics are too decorative for you, then you are sure to find a texture you’ll love from the many available at wallpaperdirect.

TREND: EXOTIC

EXOTIC FOLIAGE Get that fun, tropical feel in your home this season.... one of the most popular trends following on from the pineapple motif last year, is the trend for exotic leaves and trailing plants and flowers on our walls. Ideally the design should have a cute bird or beautiful animal peeping through the leaves too. The richly exotic foliage of Matthew Williamson’s Durbar design, hides secret palaces and regal tigers, whilst his trademark bird of paradise swoops from flower to flower. Ornate detail and sumptuous colours create a luxurious look, perfect to add a lavish but affordable touch to your home this Autumn. Petronella Hall’s playful ‘Pelican’ design perfectly embraces this tropical trend, along with other designs in her new collection.

Wallpaper: Petronella Hall, Pelican, £160 per roll

Our current favourite at wallpaperdirect.com ‘Lemur’ from Albany makes a confident, light-hearted statement in any room. Cute and quirky but with a stylish sophistication, this design is a pleasure in any room. Fitting perfectly with a monochrome interior it also provides plenty of colour inspiration for accessories and painted woodwork. And if you are inspired by this trend take a further look into wallpaperdirect.com where you will find flamingos, monkeys, fish, pelicans, pandas and a whole menagerie of possibilities.

T

his summer we were delighted and thrilled to see the new wallpaper and fabric collections from Harlequin, it was a real surprise! It had us all here in the office, dreaming of Greek Islands, sun, sea and lazy summer evenings – total bliss. The perfect antidote to a cold winter’s evening, Anthozoa is full of verve and vitality and derives its name from a word meaning ‘a living sea plant’. All the individual design names relate to land and sea, and the motifs encompass beautifully executed botanicals, shells, exotic plants, gumtree leaves, pebbles, wood, coral, waterfalls and waves. Indisputably sociable but infinitely serene, Anthozoa will create a harmonious, peaceful living space, the perfect backdrop for entertaining or simply relaxing. Anthozoa’s watery palette is enchantingly soft and understated, imitating the water and minerals, but enhanced by pops of stronger colour derived from nature in the form of exotic fish and vibrant coral formations: brass and squid ink; mandarin and fig; indigo and seaspray; amber and slate; graphite and mustard; marine and emerald; ocean and sand; berry and heather; lagoon and linden.

Louise Collis, the collection’s designer, explains: “I looked at land and sea, following an interior trend called ‘sea change’ that focused on sea plants and corals, rocks and land formation by sea. I also kept a keen eye on fashion trends, in particular the use of sheer fabrics and soft serene colours.”

ATMOSPHERE WALLPAPER III Following the success of the earlier Atmosphere wallpaper collections from Jane Churchill, we are delighted to see this season a new edition of these striking, contemporary wallpapers

rought to us as Atmosphere Wallpaper III, the wallcovering collection offers a range of striking designs with a sophisticated embossed texture effect, printed on vinyl with soft lustrous finishes. Ranging from the illustrative glamour of Moonstruck and Cityscape to the heavy textures of Amaya, Ginto and Zahra, and the understated Jaro, with a simple linen effect, the new wallpapers are all exquisitely printed to bring out the detail of every design. A muted palette of neutrals and greys expands into silvers and golds, with touches of pink and copper offsetting the darker tones of teal, midnight and slate. The result is an immensely rich collection of wallcoverings perfect for creating stylish interiors with a real creative flair. Some of our favourites from the earlier Atmosphere collections are the decorative Sula and dramatic Zelda designs and we are certain that the new Moonstruck and Cityscape will soon be equally as popular.

LAYLA FAYE

ollowing the success of the first Layla Faye wallpaper collection, we have worked here at wallpaperdirect with designer Verity Wilkinson, to create seven new Layla Faye wallcovering designs: Hex, Sailing Boats, Sunny Flower, Mod Meadows, Domino, Napier and Ripple. All with her unique take on mid-20th century design; these patterns are both historical and contemporary, so they are immediately both familiar as a Retro style design but new and fresh too. Grey has been proven to be the most successful colour for her wallpapers, which is a trend we have seen with paint colours too. As home decorators, we have really embraced shades of grey as never before. It is such a versatile colour in any home, allowing cooler tones to work well together and can really bring your interior to life. So we are delighted that all the new designs are available in shades of grey, olive and yellow, with just a little tangerine and soft blue. Both the Dotty Flower and Tall Flower patterns from the first collection have been amongst our bestselling wallcoverings and the new ‘Sunny Flower’ design is a charming interpretation of these single flower motif designs, with a

bold stylised Sunflower bloom creating a lovely repeating pattern against a small scale dot effect. And the delightful 70s hippy floral ‘Mod Meadows’ is a perfect all over flower design with the surface print adding a rich quality to the design. Then there are two tile effect designs; ‘Domino’ with its pleasing repetition of squares and ‘Hex ‘( another stunning richly textured surface printed design), with its hexagonal shape holding a sunflower style flower head together with two new geometrics ‘Ripple’, with a small wavy line and ‘Napier’ with its bolder pattern of interlinked curves and rectangles. And finally the beautiful ‘Sailing Boats’ design with its interpretation of waves and boat sails creating a bright, fresh Summer pattern for every day of the year. Verity tells us that it has been an exciting year for her, as she has been working with lots of new ways of bringing her beautiful designs to market. The initial range of cushions have been well received and she is now working on more designs, together with throws, mugs and other home accessories for the near future. All wallpapers £39.50 per roll.

As relative newcomers to wallpaperdirect, The Paper Partnership are now building their portfolio of collections with us, with the introduction of a fifth collection for Autumn 2017.

ollowing on from the diverse ranges introduced earlier this year, Autumn sees the arrival of an exciting new collection of durable, heavyweight vinyl wallpapers in Lugano. Launched under the Partnership’s bold and contemporary Grandefiore brand, Lugano features highly textured embossed finishes to create papers that generally look and feel more like a fabric surface on the wall. Elizabeth Ockford, Creative Director at the Paper Partnership, comments: “While the original designs are created at our Design Studio in leafy Sussex, they are very much inspired by the delightful surroundings of Lake Lugano in Italy. All are named after towns and villages in and around the lakeside, where the temperate climate encourages great varieties of flora and fauna, and the area is known

Wallpaper: Sorengo, WP0101001, £49 per roll

for its pretty buildings and flower laden gardens.” The collection includes ‘Ceresio’ an expressive painterly floral stripe that sits with a Shantung silk-effect plain, and a pretty geometric trellis ‘Caprino’, a contemporary twist on a chevron design ‘Grancia’, which has the appearance of having been woven in silk. There is also an atmospheric misty landscape ‘Sorengo’ which is one of the highlights of the collection and has a co-ordinating horizontal tonal pattern ‘Lavena’. The most glamorous design in the range is the Astano wall panel, which is digitally printed, enabling a huge variety of colours in its softly muted diamond pattern. These hard-wearing papers are manufactured to the highest standards in Italy and combine practicality with inspirational design, to great effect. WALLPAP ERDIRECT.COM 59

Ask Richard...

Q A

What is the best Lining Paper for putting paint on? Jo, Maidenhead We have lots of different lining papers available on wallpaperdirect and all are suitable for painting. The important thing is to have a perfectly smooth surface to paint. And so the thicker the lining paper, the smoother the finished result will be but of course it all depends on the underlining wall; and unfortunately there is no short cut to preparation of the wall ie filling and sanding. Some of my favourite lining papers are in the Wallrock fibreline brand, the Fibreliner Plus 180 which has a lovely silk ground with slightly fibrous finish or alternatively for that absolutely perfectly smooth finish the Premium 200 has a pearl ground and gives an absolutely flat finish when painted.

Q A

Wallpaper: Anaglypta, Edward, RD0602, ÂŁ20.99 per roll

Can I paper over old wallpaper? Martha, High Wycombe You know what I am going to say, you can but should you is another question? If the existing wallcovering is a paper, and perfectly smooth with no tears, or damage then it is possible, you can apply a suitable, good quality primer / sealer and then put your new wallpaper up. Certain vinyl wallpapers are actually designed so that you can remove the top layer, and the underneath layer remains on the wall, ready for you to paper over. However you still need to ensure the wall is smooth and repair any blemishes, which may affect your final wallpaper.

Wallpaper: Sandberg, Midnatt, ÂŁ192 per panel

If in doubt it is always better to strip back to the original wall, make good that surface before applying your new lining paper and final wallcovering.
