Wallpaper Hullebo pink

Description

With the advent of Art Nouveau at the turn of the 20th century, a wide variety of new and modern patterns were introduced to wallpaper and textiles. There was everything from the strictly geometric to the undulating and floral.

This particular wallpaper belongs to the latter category with its finely scattered flower stems and lobed leaves that form a playful and harmonious expression.

One of the great sources of inspiration at the time was Japanese woodblock prints with their masterfully composed plant decorations, and perhaps one senses some similar features here.

The Hullebo wallpaper is available in both a mild deep red and a muted medium green, both typical fashion colors of the period around 1900-1910. Together with a matching border, the pattern gives a stylish Art Nouveau feel and is particularly effective in combination with joinery painted in soft tones of, for example, Art Nouveau beige, English red or green umber.

Hullebo was found in one of the workers’ dwellings in Gysinge during an inventory in the early 1990s and has been waiting for a reprint ever since. Now it was finally time!

The wallpaper fits well in both small and large rooms, but here in Gysinge we think the pink would fit extra well as a bedroom wallpaper, as it gives a cozy and homely feeling.
