Saint James Paris Hotel Wallpaper
This playful wallpaper was custom-made for one of the hotel’s main staircases. It was commissioned to interior decorator Bambi Sloan and features whimsical hot-air balloons and monkeys.
A neo-classic château in Paris, originally constructed in 1892, was turned into a wonderful playground of colours and textures.
Bambi Sloan says of the hotel wallpaper, “The site was the runway from which the hot air balloons took off, so I took the site’s origins and I put it into my wallpapers… I also added monkeys”. – exert from Paul Dohertys interview for Luxury Design
