Marimekko's wallpaper




Marimekko is a leading Finnish textile and clothing design company known for their bold and effusive textiles. The company has its own printing textile factory. Marimekko was founded in 1951 and from its beginning it was a company made by women and for women.
Pictures above of Marimekko's wallpaper range.
I love this Biloba range by Kristina Isola in orange and mustard its a ginko leaf design available in black/white/grey also.
After a busy few weeks of school holidays .. i am ready to have a slower week.
