William Morris on acid....wallpaper


Thistle

These are some of my favorite wallpaper designs from the Scottish design firm Timorous Beasties (best name ever??).  

From their website:  "Noted for its surreal and provocative textiles and wallpapers, the design studio Timorous Beasties was founded in Glasgow in 1990 by Alistair McAuley and Paul Simmons.....By depicting uncompromisingly contemporary images on traditional textiles and wallpapers, Timorous Beasties has defined an inconoclastic style of design once described as "William Morris on acid.""
