Bespoke & tailored designs require a site visit, detailed measurements are taken of the area & a drawing is produced. 

This allows the manufacturer to produce a Design Miniature which will be checked by myself. Then production can start.

After taking delivery of your wallpaper comes the important stage of unrolling & mapping out the design. This is completed with the upmost care. Planning an installation has many challenges ie. undulations in the wall, internal & external corners, expansion rates of the paper. All these elements need to be considered when installing on site. A door or window frame can see you loose part of the design, sometimes its inevitable. Careful planning will help you maximise your design when ordering a straight run of panels.  

I have a close relationship with the de Gournay wallpaper family, knowing how we both work leads to a smooth wallpaper installation.
