Contemporary wallpaper MONROE

floralfabric lookblue

The second paper in this collection taken from Brooke House in Hackney, East London. For a long period, Brooke House was home to a private hospital and this design takes its name from one of its significant 19th century owners: a Dr John Monroe. The pattern is recreated from a relatively small remnant found by English Heritage before the house was pulled down in the 1950s. It is undoubtedly inspired by the Art & Crafts Movement and its familiarity would have been used to help hospital patients feel comfortable and aid their recovery. Available in five colourways. Collection:Archive Trails II Repeat:61cm/24" Roll Length:10m Roll Width:52cm Washability:Spongeable Application:Paste the Wall Much like its highly successful predecessor, Archive Trails, this sequel collection comprises patterns drawn from a range of archive material, including precious remnants discovered and conserved by English Heritage and Manchester’s Whitworth Art Gallery. Exhumed and reimagined by a talented team of artists and historians, working closely with the Little Greene Studio, the wallpaper designs have been judiciously re-coloured and their scale subtly adjusted to fit effortlessly into the 21st century interior.
