Formed in 2012 by friends Rachel Mosler and Nick Cope, Calico Wallpaper is a company that defies preconceived notions of what wallpaper is and how it is made. A far cry from the repeating toile patterns and repeating floral motifs often found in mass-market papers, the designs produced by Moser and Cope are based on handcrafted, one-of-a-kind designs, drawn from centuries of craft techniques and artistic traditions. For their Abergine wallpaper, created in late 2013, the Calico team used ancient marbling methods to create a design that is at once classic and extraordinarily unique. A design that certainly walks the line between decor and fine art, the paper is a breathtaking, sumptuous and utterly new take on a traditional idea.
