inspiration: textile mural


i love seeing how inspiration affects people in their homes. this beautiful wall mural comes from d*s reader anastasia of faiella design in san francisco. inspired by an osborne and little textile pattern seen in the hanging light fixture (a custom design by jim misner) this floor to ceiling design is in the foyer of a sunny san francisco home. murals are always such a cool way to customize a space and finding inspiration in textiles is great way to bring patterns to life at home. thanks, anastasia!

Wow. This is incredible! I especially like how the large pattern was continued up onto the ceiling. The pink ottoman is a nice addition to the space, as well.

Jnett

This is amazing. I can’t even begin to comprehend what it would take to accomplish that.

Helen Dardik

Oh! how neat is that! Bold large print all over the wall. Love it! Murals would definitely separate your home from the others:)

I love the combination of the large floral with the wide stripe rug. Really nice.

what a grand space. i love the unexpected scale, macro botanicals surrounding a room. fantastic. and zelda’s exterior below is so clever and inviting. lovely finds, thanks.

clarity & grey

SO impressive. I have Marimekko Kukkula bedding and have thought about making a wall mural/stencil using that design. Problem is, I have no idea how to go about doing it! Any advice?

Laura

Bold and beautiful!! For Clarity and Grey: to get a pattern like your Marimekko on the wall, you can use an overhead projector then trace and paint it in. I saw it on HGTV :). Good luck!

Kristan

(Commenter Laura’s tip is very cool!)

I don’t think I could live with something this big and bold (as I am rather square and simple) — not to mention my bf would probably veto giant flowers on our walls — but I really like the look!

Wow! I love this, I’ve been trying to think of things to do with our curved ceiling, this might be exactly what I was looking for, thanks.

christine

oh man this is a great idea. maybe one day when we stop renting we can do something like this. i love that it continues on to the ceiling. *FANTASTIC*

Kirsten

LOVE! Really well-executed. And I love that you kept the lampshade in the room too.

corinna

love this! i am particularly interested in the rug – any chance you can share where it came from?
thanks!

Thanks for this story. It’s gives me great ideas … It’s lovely.

This is an inspiring way to approach a foyer- what a perfect way to welcome someone into your house. This looks like a template for how people can make beautiful, bold and appropriate home design… without wasting a ton of money. If I lived on the West Coast I would hire Anastasia!

Anika T. Petrunoff

Beautiful, great work.
You inspire me for my future.

Christina

oh my gosh that is GORGEOUS!!!!! I would so love to live in that space! I’m thinking I need to hire you when I return back to my home and help inspire me!

Shani

Is there a way to get a description of how they actually did it?
Anyways – love it!
