It's actually a custom made wallcovering by a company called Porter Teleo.

You can visit their site here: http://porterteleo.com/

They actually have very beautiful papers but i was a little taken aback by the red. Reminds me of a crime scene :/

It is to the trade. The showroom I work at, Kneedler Fauchere, reps laurie's papers and this is pretty spectacular and has gained a lot of buzz!!! She also just came out with linen wallpaper backed with magnetized rubber. So you can place magnets on your wall.

Coletta: It's actually from Room & Board but I found it on Craigslist!!! It was definitely a find. It was in perfect condition and a LOT less expensive than Room & Board. They actually don't make it anymore though :(

Hi HurricaneKate,

I will get the paint color for the white walls when I get home.

Couldn't agree with you more. The thing is we never actually went out and bought those things as add-ons to our home, they were actually inherited and the pieces all have back stories. A lot of the stories seem to center around my father, so in a sense they are remembrances of his life. In this sense, they almost cast energy into the space.

Antlers - I grew up in Bucks County, Pennsylvania. My father was a builder and general nature lover. He would take walks in the woods all the time and would always ask me as a child, "what leaf is this?", etc. Anyway, hunting is very common in PA, and sometimes people shoot bucks and they run away and die somewhere else in the woods. My father was not a hunter. He found those antlers on one of his walks. I later used those same antlers in a college art piece where they were like hands typing keys on a typewriter.

Skull in hall - this was an antique from Austria that I grew up around as a child. My father was really into collecting antiques, and when he died, my mom didn't want it, so I decided to take it as a remembrance of him rather than give it to thrift.

Taxidermed cicada - this was a wedding gift. In the photo there is a green rock looking thing, that's actually a cicada statue that my parent's used to have on their deck where they would spend evenings together. The cicada is a symbol for me and the hot summers on east coast (water sprinkler sound all day), and of my father, so a friend saw this, and bought this for us because he knew what it meant in terms of my dad.

Cat irons - antiques from my father.

The mobile is a reproduction of a Calder mobile. I bought it from user "modernup" on Ebay.

and the boob lamp is called the Georgia Lamp from Jonathan Adler

The shower curtain is from West Elm!

Thanks! This was really exciting for us! Jess did a fantastic job.

must have been popular...the listing has already been deleted.

I have the very one pictured in this post and it is absolutely fantastic.

Best burgers, steak etc. and the spout like ends make it really easy to pour the juice from cooking the meat all over the plate.

One thing..it is HEAVY

Leather or not...i would slip cover that thing or try and sell it on craigslist...We bought our sofa on craigslist because we couldn't afford something at a regular store and it ended up being so great.
