1980 or 2021? Memphis wallpaper is making its comeback

The 80s are back! Memphis style wallpaper is making its comeback and the timing is absolutely perfect. Given the current circumstances, we can all use an extra dose of optimism, right? Well, that’s exactly what the Memphis style is all about. Its bright colours and playful patterns instantly give your interior a cheerful twist. Just what we need during these dark winter days. The Memphis style made his appearance in the eighties as a counter reaction to the rigid rules of modernism. The movement was inspired by the primary popart colours and geometric shapes of art deco. The result was an eclectic mix of patterns following only one rule: there are no rules. Now too, the Memphis style means a break from the less is more approach that characterizes contemporary minimalism.
