Marimekko “Kippis” Wallpaper

Kiitosmarimekko_2146_234336269

The second wallpaper collection from Finnish design house Marimekko is full of their trademark bold colour and retro style.

Designed by Maija Louekar, Kippis (meaning "cheers") features abstract black and white line drawings of glasses and goblets with colourful accents in red, blue, pink, green and yellow. It would make a striking feature wall in a kitchen or lounge and is durable too – apparently extra-washable so able to withstand hard-partying friends or small sticky-fingered people, depending on your situation.

Kippis is available from Wallpaper Direct and costs £72.95 per roll.
