Photo Pool Challenge: Wallpaper

We’re looking for wallpaper for our house. So far, we’ve found lots of patterns we like, but only one we’re certain we want to use, Topo Azul by Ana Montiel, a Spanish artist based in London. The small-scale pattern, pictured above, will work well in a tiny hall off our bedrooms and bathroom.

We’re also looking for something to replace this lush floral wallpaper in the living room, which came with the house, and probably dates from the 1950s (above). We love it, but it’s very dirty and large sections were destroyed in an electrical upgrade. We considered reproducing it, but the color doesn’t work with the fireplace, which we changed.

Something like this Oasis fabric by Scalamandre might work. Or it might drive us bonkers.

Have you used wallpaper in your home, or are there any wallpapers you are considering using? We would love to see your photos in the Forum, here.
