As an African American living in Harlem, I have always been intrigued and inspired by the historical narrative of the decorative arts, especially traditional French toile with its pastoral motifs from the late 1700s. I’m entertained by the stories these patterns tell and the questions they sometimes raise.   But after searching for many years for the perfect toile for my own home, I decided that it quite simply didn’t exist. My Harlem Toile wallpaper  (which lampoons some of the stereotypes deeply woven into the African American experience), has been featured in The Studio Museum In Harlem, The Cooper Hewitt Museum, The Museum of Art and Design in New York City and the Musée De La Toile De Jouy in France.

PLEASE NOTE THAT OUR WALLPAPER SAMPLES ARE SMALL AND RANDOMLY SIZED.  THEY ARE FOR COLOR MATCH AND QUALITY AND YOU CANNOT SEE THE ENTIRE PATTERN.
