Sophisticated textural designs, ranging from soothing to striking, give artistic personality to any interior space. Taking inspiration from the natural materials found throughout New York State, from the Great Appalachian Valley to the Adirondack Mountains – metal, wood, marble, stone, fabric, and sand – TEXTURE PORTFOLIO provides luxurious backgrounds to elevate wall and ceiling surfaces from ordinary to extraordinary. ROYAL LINEN

The visual character of this wallcovering competently mimics a textile with the appearance of closely woven threads. Furthermore, the variations in color add greatly to the semblance of linen fabric. The attractive earthy color combinations, many with a metallic glow that changes in the light, include pyrite gold with shale brown and pale silver with grey/sand plus five more.

TEXTURAL FABRIC STRIPE

A perennial favorite, striped wallcoverings work well alone or make fabulous foils for partner papers. A prime example, this slender stripe, less than half inch in width, is presented in raised metallic inks against a striated matte field with the glow of silk fabric. The contrasting colors and textures would be striking above wainscoting or below a chair rail paired with a paper in compatible colors such as cream and glistening amethyst, fog grey and gold rush, or cork brown and glowing garnet red plus several others.

ANTIQUED MARBLE

An enduring favorite among interior designers, faux marble brings an element of nature and a reminder of classic architecture from ages past. This version, extremely subtle with a soft worn and clouded appearance, is an appropriate wallcovering for a contemporary or traditional home. In six striking color combinations, select from pale shades of cream, beige and misty grey or russet, warm beige, and pale blue/green.

BRUSHSTROKE TEXTURE

Formed over millennia by powerful forces; we admire, utilize, and even cherish the granite, marble, and gemstones created by natures’ cataclysms. This wallcovering displays an artistic interpretation of the ruggedness and beauty found in rock formations. Elegantly muted colors merge; veins and fault lines appear as curvilinear movement. There are six varied combinations, among them silver with grey, aqua, and tan plus shades of teal with earth brown.

STRATUS

Strike it rich with this beautifully brilliant wallcovering. Glittering raised inks form vertical striations of precious metal against a background of richly saturated or soft neutral color, with one matte exception. An exciting addition for those who appreciate audacious design, this paper would make a striking feature wall in a modern urban home. The nine selections include obsidian black with silver streak and red rock with gold vein. I saw the angel in the marble and carved until I set him free. Michelangelo MULTICOLOR STRIPE

Gently, softly, almost sweetly, this pretty wallcovering features muted, blurred candy colored stripes. The field is overlaid with vertical striations and stripes that are thin, thinner, thinnest; a mere quarter inch at the most. The slightly raised pattern is lightly distressed and there is a glowing aura like a faint metallic wash. There are five delightful selections featuring hues like creamy pearl, misty blue and muted butterscotch or beige, pale sky blue and light mint green.

MARBLE

Mimicking the appearance of newly quarried marble, this remarkable wallcovering recalls the beauty and ruggedness of nature’s geological creations complete with the mottled field, the contrasting colored veins and flecks that add a textural realism. Beautifully at home in classic old world or minimalist modern décor, the seven available color combinations include pale shades from grey/green and beige to deep red with black accents.

TUSCAN TEXTURE

An Italian village, a weathered wall, flecks of color revealed by worn and crackled texture…this wallcovering brings that and more to mind. Lightly textured, organic, neutral, and simply beautiful. The single available palette combines a background of golden wheat, a random web of russet brown lines, and staccato flecks of molten gold bringing an aura of ancient architecture to a modern home. RICE PAPER

Beautifully mellow in mood with a highly sophisticated appearance, this wallcovering is an illusion; a facsimile of an aged wall complete with cracks and irregular pigmentation. There is all the beauty of antiquity convincingly created for the twenty-first century home; traditional, transitional, or contemporary. Your color choices are creamy pearl glow with graphite grey or a pale matte taupe with medium taupe. ORGANIC TEXTURE

Capturing the organic look currently in vogue, this wallcovering recalls the aged look of time-worn stone or plaster. The crackled and distressed texture is intriguing in a modern home, an industrial loft, or an old world setting. Available in eight beautifully earthy color selections with the glimmer of faux minerals; choose from neutrals with pronounced crackles and variegated shading including creams, beiges, browns and greys.

RAISED STRIA TEXTURE

Vertically patterned in soft mineral shades, this attractive wallcovering is embellished with lightly contrasting rough lines and random flecks of color. The nearly bark-like appearance, along with the texture and geological hues, remind one of nature’s unique and stunning creations. There are six available palettes including gold wash, taupe and garnet red or pale water blue, aqua, and cool grey.

CRACKLE TEXTURE

The character of time-worn marble is portrayed with exquisite realism on this wallpaper. Soft neutral colors add to the weathered organic appearance like eons old rock and, because they are found in nature, are easily incorporated into many different decorating styles and eras from old world to post modern. Greys, creams, and shades of brown are the primary colors but in some instances flecks and veins of terracotta, aqua or charcoal add additional interest.

OVERALL TEXTURE

Delightfully serene, calm and tranquil, this understated wallcovering knows no limitations. The delicately tinted colors and the misty, clouded texture unite to form an indistinct design that is dreamy in mood. Lovely on the walls, divine on the ceiling, and available in a rainbow of soothing colors including pale sky blue, Wedgwood blue and warm beige or ecru, amethyst and lavender/grey.

RAISED CASCADE

Threads as thin as webs spun in a summer garden have been loomed into a delicate cloth with vertical tonal stripes. Or so it appears. In reality it’s a lightly textured wallcovering that closely resembles a fine woven fabric. The available colors are mostly neutral, soft, and serene including beige with pastel pink and pale orchid with grey/beige.

NEO CLASSIC TEXTURE

Gentle pastels, soft neutral shades, and occasionally whispers of gold blend beautifully to resemble an organic surface; perhaps leather, maybe stone. Varying degrees of mottling, graining, or cloudiness of color add that realistic faux texture that is a visual echo of natural creation. The palettes include ecru with light grey or pale taupe and mocha brown with dusty rose among others.
