Hello AT,

I saw this wallpaper in Domino this March, and I have been desperately
trying to identify and find it. Help! Thanks, MS

Dear MS,

Shame on Domino for not telling you the source! That's what they do so well. That said, we don't know it either so we throw it out to the crowd....

Anyone?

I was just flipping through this issue the other day -- that's actually vintage fabric that they attached to the wall with liquid starch. I love it, too.

dear ms, just for fun and maybe something similar, try second hand rose, a great resource for vintage wallpaper and browse their inventory online.

As it says in the scan above (not trying to be snarky, just pointing it out!), it's French chintz from a Brooklyn flea market.

I think that Wook Kim may have something similar - he designs custom wallpaper and I think he is in a store called...Matter..out on Park Slope.

Here is a link to what I remembered - http://wookkim.com/cabbage.html

Hi there,

It's actually not wallpaper - it's a stencil...I know: it looks amazing! The designers (who are actually the home owners in that article) have a great website: http://www.warymeyers.com/warymeyers1.html

where you can see tons of their other projects. If you click on PRESS from the home page it will actually show this Domino piece. I've fallen in love with their stencils but probably can't afford it :)

Enjoy!

you could probably quite easily replicate the design by enlarging via xerox the page, and getting the print screened on fabric or paper, if you aren't savvy with screenprinting yourself. anything being sold at matter is bound to be exorbitantly expensive, but that's the design world we live in and love. for this fabric, seems like a four-color job, and no, i'm not volunteering my services— too busy fabricating the $1800 KANT desk at the moment. :)

I'm with Kiwi, I'm thinking that's another Wary Meyers stencil masterpiece. That design duo is drop dead amazing.

It seems Anna in Newburg has it. In the article it says the walls are "swathed" in chintz. Even goes so far as to say how.

Thanks, Kiwi, for that link to the designer's website. Delightful! Made my heart skip about for joy. Design on a dime can be so... happy.
