Designer of the Month: Kenneth James – A Celebration of Sophisticated Style

Posted on: January 07, 2016 by admin

Total Wallcovering relishes the singular honor of being endowed with wallpapers, which are probably among the most beautiful designs in one's life. There are many, all magnificent creative artists in our eyes, but so singular is our swooning for Kenneth James. This month we are happy to launch his much-anticipated input into the vast universe of interior design.

Kenneth James is not only a designer but also an atmosphere curator. He is quite a mood setter and a real innovator in terms of texture, color, and pattern. Such collections of his fine line walk between chic modernity and timeless grandeur. There is an option wide enough for creating any setting for an aspiring homeowner or designer.

From daring geometrics to textured classics, any Kenneth James design captures that kind of beauty that dresses up not just one wall by elevates an entire room.

Contemporary Circles – A Burst of Modern Energy

Kenneth James wallpaper collections Verve

Truly one of our favorite patterns and a real standout among the Verve Collection is the Contemporary Circles design. Cute little bubble motifs flaunt a modern attitude, bursting in vibrancy and creativity as they quickly fill up a room. This wallpaper does not softly recede into the shadows; rather, it dances with light, shadow, and form, alive with movement and personality. 

It is just as much at home in mid-century modern interiors, where it marries beautifully with sleek minimalist furniture, shiny metallic accents, and vivid sculptural decor. The beige colorway offers something for the more discreet-minded—an understated elegance that still references contemporary style but with minimalistic hemline clicks. 

Great for the living room or hallway or for the out-of-the-box workspace, whoever loves this design brings visual intrigue with a nice, sophisticated aesthetic.

Black Paisley – Where Tradition Meets Glamour

Kenneth James wallpaper Alahambra collection

Join the lap of high design with the super luxurious Black Paisley unit of the Alhambra Collection wallpaper. The pattern is a study in contrasts and drama. While this wallpaper is inspired by the Old World charm, it has been recreated for interiors of today, thus combining mystery with elegance.

The rich, inky black background is studded with the shimmering paisleys that subtly change in the light to create a very rich effect. A perfect statement wallpaper for a dining room, formal living, or as a dramatic feature wall in a bedroom.

What we find most thrilling about this design is its ability to link the two worlds, classic heritage and current trend. It is strong without being overpowering and ornamental without feeling out of date. For great impact, this is your wallpaper.

Linen Textured – A Nod to Vintage Craftsmanship

Kenneth James wallpaper Naturale collection

Kenneth James is also known for old-world techniques that he breathes new life into. Naturale Collection, one of the examples, is a real saga of this philosophy. 

The wallpapers in this collection mimic the look and feel of grasscloth, damask, and other faux natural textures and that using real printing techniques from almost 140 years ago in England. Slightly raised patterns create that depth and dimension, giving the wall a tactile, handcrafted appearance, which is visually extra hard to recreate with the digital designs. 

These wallpapers represent pure beauty that appreciates the subtleties of nature, the warmth of vintage styles, and the richness of layered designs. If anything, a textured wall of sparkling linen in a home office, reading corner, or bedroom adds such ingratiating sophistication and quietly charming appeal to whatever space it graces.

A Designer Who Balances Innovation and Timelessness

Kenneth James is a genius in convincingly replicating everything we admire from the past and bringing it into the modern home. He has collections available for all personal styles-from those who are attracted by a touch of glimmer and aficionadoism, vintage elegance, or earthy natural fibers.

They bring so much more than beauty: function, high quality, and versatility. These transform spaces not just into physical forms but in emotional terms. A dull space is suddenly invigorating; a chaotic one becomes serene. Great design has that kind of magic.
