When it comes to hanging your wallpaper, there are a few details to consider. His 'Fuchsia' design, which I've mentioned before, is off-the-charts fabulous. Arthur's colours are complex and sensational. Twigs is an LA-based brand owned by Arthur Athas - it is a real gem that is carried in England by Simon Playle. The Americans really print the best wallpapers there is something about their generous application of ink that makes the designs feel rich. I once did a children's bathroom in 'Balloons' by Schumacher, available from Turnell & Gigon, and it was an absolute delight. It is great to give a small bathroom the gaiety of a tremendous wallpaper. Pattern can actually make a small space feel larger, rather than oppressive your eye is drawn through it rather than halted quite flatly, as it is with a painted wall. If you are not ready to paper your entire drawing room, start in small rooms. It is wrong to think that you cannot put pictures on wallpaper. This may seem odd, as one would have thought she would want them to be the main event, yet she is right, and patterned papers are so much better in the background. Marthe Armitage, the octogenarian wallpaper designer, believes they should fade into the background and simply provide a canvas for pictures, furniture and the general clatter of life. However, used correctly, wallpaper should not really be so in your face that you tire of it any more than you might your husband, or other strong elements in the house. As with colour, pattern is something people are sometimes afraid of using but if you are worried you will tire of a bold pattern, you could use it only in the areas that you pass through - rather than in rooms you spend more time in. I love wallpaper and have no trouble using it all over the place.
