Harlequin

I love these wallpapers by Harlequinn they are so cute and the bird illustrations are so lovely, I really like how they have used pattern within the illustration such as the birds wing instead of the traditional line in a birds wing, its a really interesting way to add something new and exciting to the illustrations especially when the audience is for children. Although these are only small snap shots, you can see the pattern is consistent running down the wall, what I feel helps makes this successful is the white space, usually everyone tells you not to have white space but when it comes to wallpaper I feel you need some empty space so not to over crowd the wall. The ratio of white space to illustration hear works really well and will help keep the room looking large and airy.


These designs are in fact very similar to some current Laura Ashley wallpaper, however this is influenced towards a much younger audience than the Laura Ashley. This is perhaps a future brief to introduce a children's range of wallpapers adapted from current wallpaper?
