(Most Likely) Wallpaper Designs Not Found In Your Grandmother's House





Trove Wallpaper Designs are currently on exhibit at the Cooper-Hewitt National Design Triennial in the Upper East Side. The company, founded in 2006 in NYC, are comprised of Jee Levin and Randall Buck. Both designers have a history in fine arts and photography, which is evident in their wall covering designs.

Their unconventional designs using organic themes are breathtakingly beautiful, especially seen spanning an entire wall at full scale. Gone are the tightly, repetitive patterns usually found on wallpapers. Instead, the designs are open, natural, and spontaneous. Rather than flat, geometric patterns that scream 'I Am Wallpaper', I get a sense of perspective and depth from the forms. Not only that, but they're eco-friendly as well!
