RIVIERA MAISON

Wallpaper has been a lifelong passion for me. My love for wallpaper began in my childhood. I vividly remember covering my room with comic book pages, creating a unique, personal space. Today, wallpaper is an essential element in transforming a room, adding that elusive ’je ne sais quoi’ to any interior. This collection is inspired by memories of the past and dreams for the future.  Each design tells a story. Design ‘Ginkgo’ for example is a tribute to my time in London, where I lived near a park filled with ginkgo trees. I loved collecting their fan-shaped leaves and used them to create handmade thank-you cards. The ‘Structured Leaves’ design, with its veneer-like texture, draws inspiration from an antique box my grandmother cherished. Along these fond memories, my travels around the world are also a source of  inspiration and those too have shaped this collection. The vibrant greens and  exotic patterns echo the lush rainforests of Panama, capturing their rich textures and colours. The ‘Silhouette Flowers’ design, inspired by the wild beauty of grass and flowers growing along the side of the road, catches the essence of  unassuming natural charm. Its delicate pattern evoke a sense of tranquility and a return to simple, untamed beauty. And as a devoted fan of Belgian linen, I’ve  incorporated its timeless texture into many patterns, presented in an array of  versatile hues. In this collection book, you’ll find my passion for interiors brought to life, with wallpaper as the starring element. I hope these designs inspire you to create interiors that are not only beautiful but also deeply personal. Nico Tijsen Creative director Rivièra Maison
