Florida Chinoiserie Chic

Chad Hoeft Designs - Palm Beach Home and Decor

Another stunning Florida vignette I have been saving in my Florida File. The classic Chinoiserie wallpaper is Chinese Lattice by Bob Collins and Sons, a favorite of mine. I love the pair of Chinese ginger jars paired with the scallop seashell sconces and the coral.

My Next Chinoiserie Project

My Louis W. Bowen Chinese Lattice
I have a very tiny powder room off the laundry room that is rarely used so it has remained untouched since we moved into our house 14 years ago. It is really just used by me to wash up when I come in from the garden. I have decided to dress it up a bit. I have in my stash this wonderful vintage Louis W. Bowen Chinese Lattice wallpaper that I might use and I just ordered this faux bamboo faucet. This will be my last house project until I turn my attention to Christmas decorating.

This vintage wallpaper design is now manufactured by Quadrille/China Seas under the name Trellis Background and by Bob Collins called Chinese Lattice. This very dramatic design really takes center stage.

Top Ten Chinoiserie Wallpapers #3


Number three on our list of the top ten Chinoiserie wallpapers is a vintage pattern. This trellis or lattice design has been popular since the seventies. I just won vintage Chinese Lattice wallpaper by the famous Louis W. Bowen on eBay pictured below. I am using it as part of my laundry room renovation. It is now manufactured by China Seas for Quadrille under the name Lyford Trellis and by Bob Collins under the name Chinese Lattice. This graphic paper makes quite a design statement and totally obviates the need for any art on your walls at all. Shown below you will see how this classic paper is a great favorite of interior designers for its drama and versatility.
