An avid collector of literature volumes on the applied arts Fornasetti used books as a recurring theme which can be found throughout the Atelier's archive. The library Trompe l'oeil scene of Ex Libris abundant in leather-bound books is adapted from a 1953 screen. Displayed here in shades of stone grey and linen beige. This design is a beautiful choice to make a statement in a bedroom library or staircase. The Ex Libris wallpaper is part of the Cole & Son Fornasetti Senza Tempo wallpapers collection. Application Method: paste the wall and then apply wallpaper. Pattern match: Half Drop. Vertical repeat: 76.
I love the book-inspired design of this wallpaper, which adds a literary touch with a contemporary twist. It’s ideal for creating a focal wall in a study, library, or even a reading nook, where the vintage book motif can evoke both charm and sophistication. The gold and magenta colour palette offers a rich, opulent feel that pairs well with both modern and traditional interiors. To style it effectively, consider pairing it with neutral furniture and minimal accessories to let the pattern stand out, or complement it with gold accents for a cohesive look. This paper works particularly well in spaces with high ceilings or whitewashed walls, helping to balance the bold print with light surroundings.
