The Beauty In Textured Wallpaper

It’s so easy to select a wall color when redesigning or decorating an area in your home or office. Playing with color on walls is always fun. It adds a certain warmth and interest that can drastically alter the entire ambiance of a room. Textured wallpaper is a great way to add a luxurious touch to a space because not only is it visually appealing but it offers an interesting component to a wall that basic color cannot. There are so many different kinds of wallpapers and wall coverings ranging from grasscloth, bamboo reed, glass bead, and our personal favorite…lace!
Textured wallpaper is a beautiful option with so many different ways of application. Because many textured wallpapers are so dramatic, even applying it to just one wall in a space to serve as a focal point in the room is an excellent option. It balances the heaviness of the room so as to not be too overpowering, depending on the selection of wallpaper.
Another excellent option is to apply the textured wallpaper above a built-in wainscot or detail. This option also offers great balance when the selection of wallpaper is dramatic. This kind of application can offer a contemporary feel when trying to liven up a space that may be too traditional.
Finding that perfect balance to not over power a space with textured wallpaper, especially a space that may be small is key…but when that balance is found the outcome is beautiful and luxuriously stunning.

If You’re Bored…You’re Boring

So there is this strange and sadly common misconception that using the color grey in interior spaces is a drab direction to go in. Some people believe that by using grey as a primary color in a room; most often on walls, it will in turn convey a dull or apathetic feeling to the individual occupying the space.
The truth is grey is one of the most luxurious and versatile colors to use in a space. It can be used cohesively with beautiful charcoals, blacks and browns to create a romantic and lavish dining room, or as a clean palette to enhance bright, saturated accent colors in a trendy living area. There are also so many beautiful wallpaper and wallcoverings to choose from that can enhance the appeal to virtually any space. No matter the occupant, grey is gender neutral and an absolute brilliant direction to go in to satisfy any sex sharing one unit.

Our Newfound Infatuation with Kyle Bunting

Hide rugs are one of the most luxurious and beautiful types of decorative area rugs on the market. But one thing many may not know is that cowhide although stunningly gorgeous resting on the floor in front of your fireplace, can also be applied on various surfaces including walls, counter fronts, furniture, and even ceilings (if you so desire.)

And although we along with the rest of the world absolutely love hide in its natural state; browns, blacks, tans, and sexy caramel tones…there is something intriguingly trendy about colored and patterned hide. Kyle Bunting’s extraordinary hide is among the finest in the world, having been recognized in international design magazines and shows. There is something about the hair-on-hide leather that makes the texture in this collection undoubtedly seductive, and the hip colors and intricate patterns completely mesmerizing.

Every rug is created by hand….(yeah, by hand) and can be dyed in virtually any color imaginable. Use a hide wallcovering to enhance the chic Manhattan appeal to an apartment, or add a geometric pattern to your ottoman for an mod pad –however way its used, it’ll probably be the most remarkable thing you’ve ever seen…or touched.
