Brief: Create a commercial, conversational wallpaper for the University of Oxford…

This wallpaper, showing a depiction of a professor’s study, was created in collaboration with the University of Oxford.

It began as a series of mixed media artworks showing a variety of items that could be found on the shelves of a professor’s study.

Designing with Mixed Media

Various styles of mixed media were used when developing the artwork for this wallpaper.

It includes a mix of ink, paint, collage, and more unconventional techniques such as coffee staining.

Creating a Repeat Pattern

The finished artwork was scanned and compiled to create a layout mirroring the style of shelves on a wall.

These shelves were put into a half drop, scattered repeat to ensure the space around the artwork was well balanced.

Commercial Wallpaper Printing

With the layout and design approved, the file was packaged up into an industry standard format.

This file was sent to the manufacture, printed and sold internationally.

Outcome: An interesting, digitally printed wallpaper for the University of Oxford suitable to be sold internationally.
