Climbing the walls…
One of my increasingly popular products is my photo wallpaper or full wall graphics. It is pretty impressive to walk in a room and see an impressive landscape, just like you are actually there and peering at your favourite mountain. The timelapse above was taken by good friends Xavier and Beanie De Le Rue. It is an image of the Mt Blanc of which Xavier has ridden many of the descents around this area on his snowboard. Beanie and I were actually heli-skiing the Petit Combin across from Verbier on the day I took this shot of the Mt Blanc. So it was fitting that it was this view from Verbier that they would choose for their bedroom.
Xavier, Beanie and myself are always looking for ways in which to reduce our impact on the environment. It led me to search a wallpaper that was sustainable. I asked a good friend Rob Hill of Graphica Display in London if he could find me a solution and he was already on it! He had sourced a wallpaper product that is made from 31% post consumer recycled content, and has repurposed of over 12 million plastic bottles since its introduction, and that number is constantly increasing. I was pretty excited to be able to introduce this product to my sustainable options.
