Saul Steinberg Fabrics & Wallpapers From Schumacher


A few years ago I wrote a post about several reissued fabric and wallpaper designs created by Saul Steinberg for Schumacher. I have been getting quite a few emails requesting updated pricing for the four designs, so I thought I’d write a new post with the details. If this style looks familiar, it’s probably because

Interior Design Resources: Houndstooth

Have you caught the fever for houndstooth prints? This bold pattern is a terrific way to instantly update a room – taking it from blah to groovy, baby. Here are some options and inspiration.

pink-and-gray-restaurantBlack and white houndstooth goes well with pinks and grays. Why not go bolder and team it with yellow or red? Purple would look smashing. Don’t forget a silver metallic wallcovering to complete the ’70′s look.

houndstooth-fabricsHere are some fabric options I picked up at the Design Center last week. Each comes in several colorways. From the left is: Schumacher’s Chatham Houndstooth, in Espresso (100% linen), Greeff’s Brayden Houndstooth, in Saddle (100% cotton), Schumacher’s Martin Houndstooth, in Onyx (100% cotton). Contact me for prices.

Flor-houndstoothFLOR offers All Bark and No Bite ($16.99 per square) comes in five colors. It’s a subtle option.

adler-rugNot so meek is Jonathan Adler’s Zebra Houndstooth Rug ($1,050.00). It comes in black and brown. Adler also offers the same prints in a rectangular shape.

target-benchThis storage bench is from Target ($189.99). Buy two square trays and you’ve got a great coffee table. You can play it safe with black, or go crazy with screaming yellow.

Kia-SoulDid you know that you can major in interior design and specialize in car interiors? There’s more to it than you might think. The designer behind Kia’s Soul, is one groovy hipster.

bed-&-bath-houndstooth-lamplampHere’s another colorway to consider. I found this lamp ($49.99) at Bed, Bath & Beyond. Stunned? I was.

overstock-houndstooth-chairThis is a very nice chair from Overstock.com. Priced at a mere $295.00 I’d snap up two.

houndstooth-fabrics-2Two more fabric choices are both from Schumacher. On the left, Langley Houndstooth, in Pepper (a soft gray in 100% wool). On the right is Chelsea Chenille in Jet Black. Contact me for prices.

houndstooth-pillowsFinally, two pillows. The brown is from Bassett and is on sale for $39.99. The black option is from Ballard Design and sells for $119.00.
