A name like Tactile Wonderland kind of says it all. Thinking about makes you think of a beautiful fairytale that you want to touch and feel. Rebecca Otero and Ninette van Kamp have created that feel with their environmentally friendly wallpaper line. Both women's envious design backgrounds brought them together when studying for their MA in Design Textile Futures. They started creating what they considered beautiful things as side projects together before creating this business.
The covering is created with either a fabric on a recycled paper backing or an non-woven, FSC certified pulp. The images are hand silk screened then the paper has the option of being laser cut. All these hand done steps create a depth to the wallpaper and the addition of laser cutting can add an actual third dimension. Being hand made also allows for imperfections that just add to the charm.
