When it comes to an instant home update, wallpapers are a brilliant way to go. Whether fashioned for a feature wall or worked into a top to toe look (check out Diana Vreeland’s approach to design in our blog here for an homage to that,) they inject personality and pizazz without too much time or effort. Key, obviously, is finding the right paper – that magic print or pattern that provides difference and workability in equal parts to deliver a freshen up for your home. The Brits have a great selection of smaller brands who offer a slightly irreverent take on the wallpaper questions. Click through our gallery above to see three of our current favorites great designs.
Barneby Gates: This design duo are known for their quirky take on British insignia and heritage chic. Classic with a twist, their designs are often humorous, come in beautiful rich colours and are particularly fabulous with metallic touches that would provide just a tweak of rock and roll to your home. www.barnebygates.com
