Harlequin for the last ten years have dominated the designer wallpaper business thru-out the UK, its without doubt the most popular brand when it comes wallpapering. Part of the reason why Harlequin are so successful is most likely due to the Harlequin team.

Sanderson Wallpaper

Sanderson has always been one of my favourite brands of wallpaper, and one of the best selling brands of wallpaper throughout the UK. The main reason for this is most likely the quality and the variety of prints available from Sanderson. Whether you want their infamous Colour Of Living collection, or their highly sought after 50’s collection, Sanderson wallpapers are always wanted and in demand.  The business began in 1860 and was founded by Arthur Sanderson. When it comes to quality Sanderson will never settle for second best, and they are constantly investing each year into more designs, and more ways to improve the quality of their prints. Of course all papers used in making Sanderson wallpapers have been taken from sustainable forests. A little taster below.

Artizan designer wallpaper

Artizan wallpaper

Artizan is certainly not your average designer wallpaper brand, the companies motto is “where aspiration comes reality” and that should give you an idea what type of prints they come up with. I would be lying if I said everyone likes Artizan wallpapers, these guys don’t play it safe by releasing a boring neutral range of wallpaper that most people would like, they innovate. Artizan wallpaper hold one collection and its named Brocades & Damasks, trying to explain any further would be pointless. They say pictures speak a thousand words, so have a look yourself!

Below are some of the most wacky prints that I thought I would display. Enjoy.
