As part of the Support Structures collection, these hand screen-printed wall-hangings carry much weight. Using the idea of load-bearing walls they came about of the result of the pandemic and all the new and wonderful ways that everyone found to support each other.

They have three buttonholes sewn into the back which you can use for hanging.

Homeware by Artists ~ Bringing Art Home

Right from the start, we’ve worked to bridge the worlds of art and interiors and blur some of the lines between fine and applied arts. We make wallpaper by artists – alongside other homewares – to make high-quality art accessible to the many rather than the few. We commission original designs from contemporary artists and produce an annual archival collection that commemorates the great history of artist wallpapers. Everything we do is underpinned by stories and a desire to make complex ideas simple while still leaving room for the viewer to bring their own meaning. Wallpaper has generally been thought of as background rather than foreground – but not at CommonRoom. Our wallpapers are designed to challenge and excite. Just like every great artwork.

Our environmental impact as a business is very important to us. We’re committed to responsible design practices and to being as sustainable as possible. All of our products are designed and made here in the UK. We minimise waste by manufacturing in small batches, often printing to order, and we offset our carbon footprint by using local suppliers. The bases of our wallcoverings are always from FSC certified forests. For 2022 and beyond, we commit to planting a tree for every roll of wallpaper sold.
