Discovering the "new look"of commercial vinyls...the choices are fantastic.

Last week we spent some time at the D&D building (Decoration and Design Building) preparing walls and installing wall covering for one of our clients in the building. Its alway a visual treat to see the creative window displays at the D&D. As a wallpaper hanger, I always notice the wallcoverings, the array of design patterns, textures and special effects is delicious to the eye!
I had the opportunity to meet Mercedes at the Wolf-Gordon showroom. The showroom is fantastic and truly represents the achievements of vinyl wall coverings in the design and decoration industry over the years. It is now possible to convincingly replicate in vinyl almost any texture or finish.The durability and practicality of commercial grade 15 and 20 ounce vinyl has long been recognized by the commercial, hospitality and healthcare industries.
As a wallpaper hanger here in NYC whenever I see the  need to use vinyl wall covering I enthusiastically recommend it to my clients. More times than I care to count  upon hearing the word "vinyl" the knee jerk reaction is a haughty little grimace "Vinyl?....oh, no no I don't like vinyl."  In my opinion it is time to reconsider outdated  prejudices regarding vinyl wallpapers. The new vinyls are visually on the cutting edge of decoration and deserved to be considered more often for use in both residential and commercial spaces.
