These wall coverings have been out from Inhabitat Living a while and I wonder how they look in person.  Has anyone seen an installation?  I really love a 3d or textured wall or painting so these are right up my alley.

Wallpaper goes green

Anyone who knows me knows that I have been crushin' on wallpaper for the better part of last year.  My bro now has a sweet wallpaper installation in his new condo and I'm dying to get my hands on a client that is willing to go bold with wallpaper.  And for those not in the know, wallpaper is back baby!  New patterns, new materials, new ideas make this generation of wallpaper versatile, exciting and eco-friendly!  Enter mod green pod, based in my home state of Tejas... mod green pod is my go-to choice for home-healthy wallpaper (they have fabrics too).  
 
 
 

"Our products are cleaner for the earth, our home and your body.

At Mod Green Pod, we are dedicated to offering products that are environmentally-friendly and home-healthy, so we have chosen 100% organic cotton for our fabrics and a clean, vinyl-free finish for our wallpapers.

We believe in supporting organic cotton agriculture and manufacturing. Grown without toxic chemicals or pesticides, organic cotton is healthier for the earth’s soil and water, animals, farmers, manufacturers, and finally, YOU. Conventional cotton production uses 25% of the world’s insecticides and 10% of the world’s pesticides (including herbicides and defoliants), despite using only 3% of the world’s cropland.

Our 100% organic cotton fabrics are produced without using any harmful finishing agents and our water-based printing process also respects this simplicity and purity. Mod Green Pod’s wallpapers are also printed with water-based inks and unlike most wallpapers, ours are finished without a coating of toxic vinyl."
