Modern Chinoiserie- How We solved a design challenge

I was contacted by designer Heidi Dripps to create a finish that was inspired by a wallpaper that the client loved.  The wallpaper was beautiful but there were certain things that didn't work for the client. One, the colorways weren't quite right. And two, the composition wasn't just so. The designer and client wanted me to recreate the feel of the contemporary imagery but create more of a mural.

Inspiration

After meeting with the client and Heidi, we decided on a new color palette and design that would be more unique and personalized. In keeping with the printed look of the wallpaper, I created stencils and masked out each branch so that I could make them look “stenciled” also.

In Process

The final look is traditional and contemporary at the same time.

So if you are looking to customize your interior design project with a hand painted finish please contact us. We love working with our clients to come up with a unique design or finish that will elevate as well as personalize the space.
