Stickers


The wall stickers trend is in full swing. As a design idea, they are a great way to add visual interest to what would normally be a blank space. There were a few showing at the ICFF but there were two that I liked.

The first was from a Danish firm called Ferm-Living, their website linked here. The other was a British firm called Miss Print. Miss Print's offering called 'Muscat' is shown above. Miss Print focuses on Eames-like abstract patterns that are perfect for a mid-century modern style home. Ferm-Living has a more organic/natural eye with patterns of various flowers and trees. They even have birds, some of which are a bit too Hitchcock for me.

Both firms make many other things and for Miss Print, it wasn't their vinyl coverings that attracted me but rather a three-legged lamp shown above. Having the pattern offers visual interest without making a room too busy.
