Damask originated in China over two and a half thousand years ago, and it’s a testament to the sheer beauty of the design that it is still as popular today as it was then. In the Middle Ages, the artisans of Damascus embraced the design, which is where it got its name. Its design speaks of nobility and royalty, a reminder of the Silk Route between Damascus and China. Modern Damascus wallpaper features the same kind of intricate patterns and designs, including floral and geometric motifs, elegantly combined into classic patterns.
Perfect for a heritage interior or to create a sense of opulence, the elaborate details within the design work beautifully with every color from purple to gray and on-trend beige. Add some warming colours into the mix, and you can create a living room that feels incredibly welcoming or a show-stopping hallway that wows your visitors as soon as they step through the door. Introduce Damask wallpaper to a bedroom to imbue a sense of luxurious opulence, especially when perfectly partnered with a deep blue paint or rich purple. However, Damask can be understated, too, especially when paired with grey paint, emphasising its delicate floral elements.
