Night

An evolution of Calico Wallpaper’s inaugural design, Night explores the relationship between darkness and light.

A study in the complementary nature of contrasting elements, Night draws inspiration from the simultaneous obscurity and illumination of the night. Working with traditional marbling techniques, we submerged select inks in pools of water, using delicate gestures to create a flowing pattern. By setting brilliant metallics against a background of rich matte blues and blacks, we evoked the light of the moon and stars set against an inky sky.
