Decorating Ideas: Exquisite handmade wallpapers & fabrics by Fromental

A wall covering by Fromental is unmistakable. Although the handmade wallpapers are as versatile as they are beautiful, ranging from traditional embroidered chinoiserie’s to painted geometric motifs, there is something so, well ‘Fromental’ about them. Very hand crafted and with a bespoke way of working, the presence of an artisan or creator is always felt when you look at the pieces. This blogpost is a repost of my blog of 23-03-2015. Be Inspired ........
Having worked within a fashion and interiors portfolio that includes international names such as Paul Smith, Timothy Everest, Duchamp, Ralph Lauren and Osborne & Little, partners Tim Butcher and Lizzie Deshayes established handmade interiors house Fromental in 2005. ‘Our ethos and aims are to combine the finest skills together with luxurious fabrics,’ say the duo, ‘blend that with a distinctly British style, historic classicism with the cutting-edge cool of London’s fashion scene to create contemporary, timeless interiors.’
The creative team is a collaboration of talented designers and craftsmen from London and China. The company, which now has showrooms in London, New York and LA, has four main wallpaper collections alongside a selection of luxury fabrics, suitable for both residential and hospitality spaces.
