Book Description
Whether it's fragile rosebuds and ivy gingerly climbing a bedroom wall or bold stripes setting the tone for a vibrant dining room, wallpaper adds dimension and warmth to any setting. What's more, it can provide solutions to a multitude of problems, from making a room seem larger to camouflaging structural flaws. Decorating with Wallpaper explores the patterns and motifs, history and myriad uses--some cleverly beyond wall covering--of this most versatile of design elements. Includes full-page samples of various wallpaper patterns.
Card catalog description
Decorating with Wallpaper provides all the guidance and assurance needed to work with wallpaper. Rules do exist, and no one knows them better than the editors of Victoria. For ten years, the finest examples of wallpaper design have appeared in the pages of the magazine - cabbage roses from England, the spiritual home of wallpaper; scenic toile de Jouy from France; and a parade of teacups from America. These rooms have been collected in the first book devoted entirely to the subject, from the vast array of available patterns to guidelines for combining them with borders and trims, to devices for matching wallpaper and fabric. And like any good guidebook, Decorating with Wallpaper tells when to break all the rules.
