Brooklyn Paper Hanging

The Manhattan Bridge dates to 1909 and has some real international flair, considering that the arch was modeled after Porte Saint-Denis in Paris and the plaza is like the one around St. Peter’s Square in Vatican City. As the old saw goes, no point in re-inventing the wheel. The neighborhood dubbed DUMBO, for Down Under the Manhattan Bridge Overpass, features cobblestone streets and beautifully converted warehouse buildings. It is here that a young family is about to welcome a baby and wanted to bring some safari-style wildlife to the home scene.

 Wallpapering can be tricky, and we have the perfect, expert team for the job. Walls need to be super smooth, which in our world translates to patching, spackling, sanding, smoothing, inspecting from all angles and applying the correct undercoat product for superior adherence. Application like this requires intricate attention to detail so the back half of a giraffe body in this wallpaper pattern does not butt into a tree or an elephant. It’s a precision kind of job where you cannot afford even a vertical fraction of an inch off or nothing lines up properly. You can see our work here – all the giraffes are whole, like the trees and other creatures. It’s a whimsical wall in a Brooklyn setting with an international splash from another continent.
