As Featured in West + Main Home Magazine: Wallpaper Magic

By February 5, 2021

Some people are calling it GrandMillennial style, but this is definitely not the heavy wall covering you remember from Granny’s house!

Everything old truly is new again…and we would be remiss if we didn’t include wallpaper in the Old Meets New Issue of West + Main Home Magazine! We’re seeing wallpaper
EVERYWHERE – from small accents in renovated homes to incredible murals in new-builds at every price point…and we’re totally here for it.

When West + Main agents April + Rob Schmidt scored the mid-century house next door to theirs for April’s mom to live in, their goal was to help her feel like it was 100% her from the moment she walked in the door…which meant that the entryway had to be warm, welcoming + stylish just like she is. This bold + whimsical wallpaper print is not only an homage to the home’s
architectural history, but also to the new owner’s affinity for gardening, as well as her love of art in every form.

The mid-mod walnut shelf unit found itself perfectly at home beneath a vintage mirror, which, placed across from the modern door, also follows one of the main tenets of feng shui by reflecting elements of nature + light into the space. The finishing touch? A 60’s inspired light fixture, of course!
