Tearable Wallpaper by Hanna Nyman

This unique wallpaper concept from designer Hanna Nyman allows the consumer to ultimately decide on a custom wallpaper pattern — the dual layer wallpaper can be manipulated to show-off the underlying pattern and colors while creating a custom 3-D effect...

 
 

This is a controlled and elegant version of peeling back layers of wallpaper and revealing the history of underlying layers — what a fun concept!

This could be an interesting concept if you're someone with lots of wall space. Personally I think it would never work for me because my walls would look too cluttered and busy, having already lots of artwork up in every room...

Interesting, though it seems like the sticky side would get dusty and irreparably so after a short while.

I hardly think this is designed to last long. If you have children or cats, this will look like crap in year or so.

yes, wallpaper is terrible!

I'm not a big fan of expressions of trends that make a big mess when its time to make a change. Wallpaper takes that cake every time.

Would look great!, but . . . can't imagine the dust accumulation (as someone already mentioned). I'm not a "duster" (e.g. not at all offended by dust), but still believe this would be a mess in just a few weeks.

I agree it's a wonderful design accent for any wall. My only hesitation involves cats. My cats would tear those peeled back pieces and make them into a lovely collage on the floor.

i don't like that the back is always white. the white back looks SO stark in the brown/berry color scheme.

plus, what if someone leans on the wall and bends it? it doesn't seem very practical, even as an accent.
