INTERIORS - JOHN BIDDELL Arte ® Arte ®

Among the floral designs are Feroz, a stylized jungle flora hiding monkeys and jaguars peering out from their natural habitat, and one of my favourite designs entitled Flower of love, in which Art Nouveau meets 1960s psychedelia.


But what makes this collection truly unique and an instant classic are the quirky, unexpected and sometimes even a trifle shocking designs, such as City Park, Sharp Descent and Vigilant Floral. When first viewed, City Park appears to be a classical damask pattern. However on closer inspection you realise it’s subtly interjected with urban elements, such as parking meters, fire hydrants - and even a few rats! Sharp Descent is another pop art inspired creation, featuring a plethora of razor sharp falling objects, ranging from innocuous cork screws, through open scissors to brutal and intimidating knives. At first glance Vigilant Floral is simply a traditional floral design, but upon deeper investigation you realize you're not alone. You're being watched. A fantastic take on today's


Big Brother culture, designer Dan Funderburgh uses security cameras to reveal how we have become impervious enough to the presence of cameras that we don't even immediately notice them, when in such a contradictory scenario as this floral wallpaper. Yet the serious nature of the commentary loses out to the overall humour behind the way the elements have been combined. Pure Flavor Paper mockery.


Our lovely Arte rep was right, this collection is not for everybody – but it’s certainly going to enjoy a prime spot on the shelves at John Charles Interiors !!! Come and see what you think.
