Zuber

Luxurious homes, from the New York to South Carolina to Scotland and France, featuring woodblock printed panoramic wallpapers from the premier French manufacturer Zuber & Cie. Since its founding in 1797, Zuber & Cie wallpapers' fame has spread far and wide, from King Louis Philippe awarding Jean Zuber the Legion of Honor in 1834 to Jackie Kennedy installing Zuber's ';Vues de lAmerique du Nord' in the White House. According to France Today, the company still uses the same antique woodblocks, the same paint formulas, and the same time-honored processes to create its stunning wallpapers as it did in Jean Zuber's time. Gorgeous displays of friezes, borders, ceiling roses, and architectural trompe l'oeil have been photographed for this book in homes in the U.S., France, and the U.K. Brian D. Coleman continually brings to life the biggest names in design, such as Farrow & Ball, Scalamandre, Fortuny, the Wiseman Group, Barry Dixon, and Leta Austin Foster. He lives in Seattle and NYC.
