Eley Kishimoto launches first wallpaper collection at Decorex, London

Most people associate the name Eley Kishimoto (founded by Mark Eley and Wakako Kishimoto in 1992) as a British fashion label that specialises in print.

Known internationally for their wide range of work - from fashion and interiors to architectural and design collaborations across different disciplines - the dynamic label has now launched its first hand-printed wallpaper collection, currently on show at the presitigious Decorex luxury interior trade fair (Sept. 21 - 24) at London's Syon Park.


It is a fantastical world of colour, pop, fun and exciting patterns. the new wallpaper collection (comprising 12 designs) builds on the success of the designers' previous offering of bespoke furniture, soft furnishings and homewares.

Their stand in Decorex is covered in the La La Lyon Col 35 design taken from a fabric they had used two years' ago for a fashion range.  This is a bold design representing a modern take on a traditional damask pattern.

The new collection - screen-prinrted in the designers' Brixton studio - is the latest incarnation of a continually evolving design aesthetic; re-working of seminal prints from the studio's archive that unifies existing designs with both garments and walls, resulting in a visceral exploration of surface decoration.  The collection also celebrates a desire to create exquisite, handcrafted artifacts in a world of fast, digital production.
The new wallpaper collection is available to buy online at Eley Kishimoto's website.  

Eley Kishimoto -  the "Patron Saints of Print" - have done it again.
