Interior Trend: Lemieux et Cie’s History-Inspired Wallpaper Collection Now at Beautiful Walls

Wallpaper is having a nostalgic comeback in interior design, and Lemieux et Cie’s latest collection captures this perfectly. Designed by Christiane Lemieux, each design in the collection draws on historical wallpaper styles from around the world, crafted meticulously by hand.

Lemieux Et Cie Zora Wave - Denim, available at Beautiful Walls
Artistic brushstrokes interpret waves in motion that crash and swirl from the central wellsprings of Zora Waves.  A retrospective from the private collections of Christiane Lemieux featuring global, artistic, and handcrafted designs. 

It is typified by richly layered designs that are effortlessly relaxed, according to Tim Dixon, Managing Director of retailer Beautiful Walls.  

Tim said: “This collection was inspired by the wallpaper classics of years gone by, and given a modern update for 21st century living.

“While each design within the collection has been created for visual impact, there is a subtleness to the range to ensure it works in harmony with existing home styling.”

The collection offers 14 unique designs, spanning geometric patterns, florals, painterly motifs, and tapestry-inspired prints, with an abstract mural of rolling ocean waves as a standout piece. Each design draws from Christiane Lemieux’s private archives, showcasing global, artistic, and handcrafted influences. Her brand, Lemieux Et Cie, epitomizes luxury through minimalist refinement—richly layered yet with an effortless, relaxed elegance. This deeply personal style reflects a commitment to quality, craftsmanship, and the beauty of imperfection, as described by Beautiful Walls.
