Diamond Baratta design firm contacted Scenic Wallpaper to install a custom Gracie Studio wallpaper on a huge staircase at a townhouse on the Upper East Side, just off 5th Avenue. The staircase spanned 5 floors, and at the time it was the largest wallpaper order that Gracie Studio had ever received.
The wallpaper was custom made for the space, and the scene placement was planned carefully before installation.

The blue and white porcelain vases seen throughout the paper were actually in the client’s own collection of Chinese antiques. They were photographed and incorporated into the design of the wallpaper. Bill Diamond also custom colored many of the flowers in the design.
