Find a material, a design approach and the right official contact before you commit to a wallcovering.

An editorial selection of twenty international wallcovering brands, not a ranking by revenue or market share. Inclusion does not imply an endorsement, supplier relationship or installation by Mr Wallcover.

“Our installation” shows that maker’s wallcovering in our work. “Craft example” names a different maker and project we have worked on; it illustrates the craft and is not an installation record for the directory brand.
