ARCHIVES DESIGNS FOR SUBLIMING WALLS
True to its tradition of giving new life to old motifs, Little Greene once again immersed itself in the archives of the English Heritage in search of historical motifs that can be adapted to modern interiors. London Wallpapers IV is a splendid collection of original motifs, whose dimensions and colors have been modified to adapt to contemporary interiors.
It consists of 12 motifs in subtle combinations of classic and contemporary colors, with surprising printed textures. Five patterns come from existing collections with original color combinations but also new tones, updated to the taste of the day. There are also 7 unpublished designs in a range of amazing shades. Covering 3 centuries of British style, the original motifs cover the period from 1760 to 1950. Originally made in London to decorate elegant town and country houses, each motif is attached to an address, the place of its discovery.
London Wallpaper IV There are 12 products.
Albemarle St.
Reminiscent of Spitalfields silks, this paper, found in Albemarle Street, off Piccadilly, had an enormous pattern repeat of 6ft.
148,00 €Bayham Abbey
On a red ground, reminiscent of gothic style, the original paper was made from cellulose wood pulp and machine-printed.
134,00 €Borough High St
The earliest paper retrieved from a laminate of four, this gothic trellis design with Moorish influences was the first paper to adorn the walls of one of the properties that replaced the prison in the late 1870s.
175,00 €Broadwick St
Found in a row of elegant early-18th century houses in Broadwick Street, Soho, this design is remarkable in that it was based on a botanically accurate reproduction of a plant, Clusia Rosea
148,00 €Chelsea Bridge
From a stylistic point of view, this motif is undeniably French. However, the piece of archive comes from a prestigious address near the Thames. The decorative strip on each side of the flower column has been preserved but lightened to give more balance to the pattern repeatedly.
175,00 €Cranford
From a stylistic point of view, this motif is undeniably French. However, the piece of archive comes from a prestigious address near the Thames. The decorative strip on each side of the flower column has been preserved but lightened to give more balance to the pattern repeatedly.
134,00 €Great Ormond Street
A colourful parrot motif, closely based on one of a multi-layered group of papers removed from the ground floor rear closet of a very early-18th century terrace house opposite Great Ormond Street Children’s Hospital.
175,00 €Old Gloucester Street
Unrefined but elegant wood panel-effect trompe l’oeil that could be used all round a room in a traditional style, or to bring a timeless architectural feel to a single wall in a more contemporary interior.
158,00 €Palace Road
A typical historic damask, the design source was originally a woven silk from the 19th century, the effect of which is replicated in the print detail.
148,00 €Pall Mall
With its single print colour, this paper is a younger sister to the design Marlborough, but carries the same delicate elegance.
158,00 €Richmond Green
Unbefitting to the quality of this 19th century paper, the surviving sample was retrieved, not from the walls of a smart Richmond townhouse, but from a skip outside it, during a 1989 refurbishment.
175,00 €Upper Brook St
Unbefitting to the quality of this 19th century paper, the surviving sample was retrieved, not from the walls of a smart Richmond townhouse, but from a skip outside it, during a 1989 refurbishment.
