Description

In a world increasingly shaped by AI, human-created design brings warmth and authenticity to public spaces. Founded in 2017 by Charlotte Raffo, The Monkey Puzzle Tree collaborates with Yorkshire-based artists to produce locally manufactured wallpapers and fabrics. Charlotte worked with artist Joel Weaver on ‘Disorder in Stasis,’ a striking black-and-white wallpaper derived from the blotting papers used during Joel’s detailed, hand-drawn artwork. These organic marks were transformed into a continuous repeat design. The FSC-certified wallpaper was tailored to fit various Hilton Hotel bedroom layouts to reduce waste, with a wipeable finish chosen for durability in a high-use commercial environment.
