Who We Are...
Our founder, George, a renowned multidiscplinary creative, has a background in painting. His first commercial products were launched in early 2014: a suite of six hand-painted prints for wallpaper, including our lips, featured here in our 10-year anniversary robe x Far West Collective.

Over the last decade, both the studio and brand have evolved tremendously; our collections have expanded far beyond wallpaper to include printed fabric, woven textiles, wearable garments, and whimsical objets.
Our aim is to research and develop innovative ideas for print and product design. We often find inspiration at the intersection of art history, decorative arts, and modern manufacturing methods...
Our business operates a proprietary showroom in New York City, partnering with manufacturers around the world. Our signature line of printed wallpapers and fabrics, woven textiles, and collaborative print collections are available for purchase through showrooms globally and have adorned the homes of designers and magazines worldwide.
We Debut Collections in Showhouses and Fairs: our products have been featured numerous times in Kips Bay in New York City, Dallas, and Palm Beach, as well as at Salone del Mobile in Milan, Maison et Objet/Deco Off in Paris.
We Collaborate with Archives: we transform ready-made historical pattern documents into gold.
We Collaborate with Interior Designers: our studio creates collections for interior designers who wish to make their mark in the wallpaper and fabric industry.
We Collaborate with Artists: past projects include the Met Opera's production of Philip Glass's 'Akhnaten', costumes for Silas and Rashaun's 'Desire Lines', and a unique suite of wallpapers for Justin Vivian Bond's monumental body of work 'My Model: Myself', which now resides in the permanent collection of the Victoria and Albert Museum in London.
We Collaborate with Print Houses: we develop print collections for heritage brands, such as the Martinique® Celebration with CW Stockwell's renowned banana leaf design.
We Collaborate with Hotels: we are recognized for developing bodies of work for hospitality businesses, both large and small, including hotels and public spaces, their interiors, branding, and apparel (for example, our psychedelic marbling for the iconic Hotel St. Vincent in New Orleans).
We Collaborate with Fashion and Home: our print partnerships with brands encompass ready-to-wear, home goods, and luxury or limited-edition collectibles, such as CB2 and Brandon Maxwell, featured here.
We Stand for Equality: through donations, our business supports the ACLU and Color of Change. We also contribute a portion of the profits from the Trans Power Toile collection to the Hetrick Martin Institute in New York City.
