Wallpaper Party 971-1

Party 971-1 is the colourful version of the circus design: ponies, a bear with a drum, an elephant on a ball, a Ferris wheel and an ice cream cart, all on white. The little scenes are spread evenly across the wall, so the pattern stays light enough for a nursery or a small playroom.

Party is built from small circus scenes: ponies, a bear with a drum, an elephant on a ball, a bear on a unicycle, a Ferris wheel, a big top and a hot air balloon. Each scene is a little picture of its own, so a child keeps finding something new on the wall.

Mika is the children's collection from ICH Wallcoverings, where watercolour animals and landscapes are matched with quiet stripes, textures and plain companions so that the walls of one room can be put together as a set. The paper is non woven and of the Easy Up type: the paste goes onto the wall rather than onto the paper, and a dry length can still be slid into place. The roll measures 53 cm × 10.05 m with a 70 cm repeat and a straight match, so the pattern joins at the same height on every length.

The surface is washable, so fingerprints and marks come off with a damp cloth. Lightfastness is very good, which means a sunny wall will not fade quickly. When the room is redone, the old covering comes away dry in one piece and the wall underneath needs no fresh filling.
