Good Questions: Buying Custom Foreign Wallpaper?
Chicago

Andrew sent us a good question: I love the [Istanbul-based] Studio Nommo wallpaper that I saw featured on your site. I am trying to build two spec homes in Minneapolis: modern, architectural and within a starter home budget...tricky. I desperately need cool wallpaper for accents. Is there anyway to get an English language site or catalog for Studio Nommo? I want to order some but can't find any info printed in English.

 
 

Andrew, Studio Nommo has an English language website that you can access here. They specialize in custom designs for each space, so their ordering process is a little longer and more involved than buying readymade wallpaper.

Follow these steps to order your custom wallpaper:

• Select the design you want from their catalog.
Contact them with your design choice, measurements, and a photo of the room.
• They'll make a mock-up of how the wallpaper will look in your space.
• They'll email you the mock-up with a price quote.
• They'll ship the wallpaper to you. (You pay shipping costs.) The estimated time for delivery is 4 weeks from the time they make the wallpaper.

If this process is too time-consuming for your project, you might consider buying a readymade paper in the US. Here are links to a few options we've featured on Apartment Therapy:

Much as I like this wallpaper - I sure wouldn't put it in a spec-house...
...you want to appeal to as many buyers as possible - and in this market, you can't afford to turn someone off because your taste in wallpaper/art is different than theirs.

Save it for your own home.

bepsf...you dont know his demographic and i think he should go for it...if its somewhere like austin, new york or los angeles it would be hit with the new younger crowd that is settling there
