My love of wallpaper dates back to childhood, when my bedroom walls were covered in tiny peach-coloured palm trees. I had a habit of scribbling on everything –– radiators, photo albums, floors –– but I never messed with the palm trees. Years later, my children’s bedroom is decorated with a wall of turquoise poppies designed by Tres Tintas of Barcelona. And so far, it hasn’t been sullied with chocolatey fingerprints or crayon. There is a roll of Mathew Williamson’s hummingbird wallpaper –– a gift from my mother –– that I’m saving for the tiniest powder room, and a lot of the papers from Bien Fait, (especially ‘The Wild”) would add whimsy to our walls, too. I’m pretty sure the palm trees are no longer in production, but this one from Cole & Son feels like the grown-up version.
