Written by Phillip Jeffries | Jun 8, 2021 9:05:12 PM

At Phillip Jeffries we inspire a more beautiful world, one wall at a time, but we also like to add drama to unexpected places. From the bookcase to the staircase, our clients are dreaming up creative ways to feature Phillip Jeffries wallcoverings.

When you think beyond a statement wall, the possibilities are endless. Designer Megan Gorelick covers a modern cabinet (shown above) with our award winning Rivets Collection. The effects are tailored and chic.

Below are five more way to reimagine wallcoverings for interiors.

A pop of blue paves the way! This traditional style staircase with white moldings and warm wood treads gets a modern, colorful makeover with wallcovering. Staircase treads by Barclay Butera Interiors.

Using an unexpected material like a natural grasscloth in a bookcase provides texture and interest. The Totally Tatami wallcovering collection is inspired by traditional Japanese tatami mats and has a similar linear pattern. Authentic grasscloth and metallic papers are woven, cut into strips and woven again. Emerald green makes the light pink walls pop. Bookcase by Corey Damen Jenkins. 

The fifth wall is a spectacular surface to cover with a wood veneer wallcovering. The one shown above, Against the Grain, is made from a selection of paulownia, black oak, cane, and scholar wood that is sliced into thin veneers, dyed, cut in strips and placed into a chic geometric chevron pattern for the look of artisanal parquet woodwork.

Inspired by horizon lines, the blue sky provides a soft backdrop for dinner parties. Framing wallcoverings with moldings creates works of art. Beyond features layers of horizontal brushstrokes in a multitude of colorations that are digitally printed on natural grounds for a collection where artistry meets innovation.

The magnificence of a grand ceiling in a bedroom becomes a focal point with this panel inlay design. To create Palazzo, artisans slice authentic wood into thin veneers, then dye, cut, and hand lay the pieces into a chic geometric X pattern for a unique look that is right on target. Ceiling by Lisa Gabrielson.
