Bold Wallpaper Meets Luxury Limewash in Brooklyn 11201
With wonderful views across New York Harbor, this Brooklyn Heights home was ready for a little pop of interior excitement. We cleaned, prepped and then covered the once plain ol’ boring white walls with a bold, colorful geometric pattern wallpaper in the entry to a magnificent high-rise residence. This textured, non-woven fibre (they spell it the British way) product from Laine + Alliage, the design atelier here in the Big Apple, evokes a cheerful, jubilant aura, anchored with expanses of a deep rainforest shade of green.
For a lightly rustic, Mediterranean look, the homeowner asked for limewash walls in a hall and bedroom. Good-bye more plain ol’ boring white. Hello eco-friendly, breathable, non-toxic, mold-resistant limewash. Made from slaked lime, water and natural pigments, this intriguing interior paint offers a matte, textured finish and weathered patina. Natural color variations soften and streak with age.
The natural beauty of Brooklyn Heights, seen and experienced on tree-lined sidewalks and waterfront views, has now been carried inside this luxury residence. From the newly wallpapered, intrepid entryway to the meticulously limewashed hall and bedroom walls, this is a home that elicits the urban passion of living in and loving New York City.
