The Art of Gracie: Handpainted Wallpapers, Timeless Rooms

Description:

A glorious celebration of America’s most storied handpainted wallpaper company, family owned for 125 years, featuring dozens of rooms by today’s top interior designers.

The story of Gracie wallpaper, founded in 1898 and still family owned by the sixth generation, is one of the great untold stories of American interior design. Best known for their exquisitely detailed designs, Gracie papers have been installed at the White House and many of America’s most notable homes. They are a go-to resource for interior designers including Mark Sikes, Summer Thornton, Ellie Cullman, Brooke Giannetti, Suzanne Kasler, Michael S. Smith, Alexa Hampton, Alex Papachristidis, and Amanda Lindroth, and Gracie can be found in the homes of celebrities including Reese Witherspoon, Jennifer Aniston, and Cameron Diaz.

This volume, featuring hundreds of color photographs of contemporary rooms by leading interior designers, shows the range not only of the papers themselves—from beautiful florals and birds to panoramic landscapes of American folk scenes and French pastoral hillsides to hunting and maritime scenes—but also the imaginative ways they can be used to create truly transporting spaces. Designs in every imaginable color, from metallics to lush greens and cobalt blues to dramatic reds and blacks, show that with Gracie, any room in the home can become a true, custom work of art.

Exquisite production detail on this volume, including 4-color printed page edges and a cover design custom-painted by Gracie exclusively for the book, will make this a must-have gift item that every interior design fan will want to display.

Editorial Reviews

Review

"The Gracie family’s foray into wallpaper began through the buying, selling, and restoration of European and Chinese varieties back in 1898. Six generations later, the business still blooms: Their own custom designs, which have been decorator go-tos for decades, retain the flora and fauna of these original references. This is a mere bit of history touched upon in The Art of Gracie, the latest volume narrated by family members who have overseen the meticulous manufacturing methods true to their business. Detailing the multitudinous usages of the papers themselves, this book outlines one of American interior design’s greatest stories and has beautiful visuals to match." — Architectural Digest

"The Art of Gracie is the first book from the esteemed firm and offers a stunning look not only at the singular history of this family-run company, but also at the extraordinary artistry that goes into eachand every Gracie wallpaper." — BIRMINGHAM HOME AND GARDEN

"Founded in 1898, Gracie Wallpaper is a sixth-generation family-owned company, and its wallpaper has adorned The White House and some of America’s most notable homes. The book tells the company's legacy while showcasing some stunning rooms featuring the custom wallpaper. 'I am completely enamored with Gracie’s new book,' says Janine Carendi MacMurray, part of the New York-based residential design company Area Interior Design. 'It’s beautiful, and the details of the cover image are also printed on all six sides of the book (including on the edge of the pages), which makes it truly lovely to work with on a coffee table.'" — WOMAN'S DAY

About the Author

Brother and sister team Mike and Jennifer Gracie are now carrying out their great grandfather’s legacy as the fifth-generation leaders of the company, along with her son Zachary, who represents the sixth. Judith Nasatir is an independent design writer who has authored dozens of books.

This book is beautiful outside and in, including the page edges, which are printed to match the cover. The photos do the company's hand-painted wallpapers justice, some close-up and others showing complete rooms. It's delicious, every page. Gracie is now managed by the 6th generation of Gracie descendants, having been started in 1898. While Gracie is known for their exquisite works of art painted by artisans for custom placement, the way they present their illustrations makes for a non-stop visual feast.A few pages of text explain the family's story and the history of the company, but most of the 320 pages are of their botanicals, country estate murals, panoramic views, and other varied themes of paintings on wallpaper placed in their clients' homes. We also learn about the company's history with antiques.Like most Rizzoli books, this one is made of excellent paper and linen-textured covers, the usual quality they put into their books. It's weighty, too, so you know you're holding something substantial... that's substantial in more than one way.Though one might not be able to afford Gracie's hand-painted wallpaper, looking through this book is inspiring and stimulates ideas of using wallpaper to enhance one's home. When I need a shot of inspiration, or ideas for a specific color palette, I take time to sit with this book and absorb its images. It feels like taking a mini-vacation to recharge... and dream.

This Book is so beautiful! It is full of photographs of the beautiful hand painted wall coverings. I also found the company/family history very informative and interesting without being too much. What I love is the layout! It is page after page of their beautiful wall papers in different rooms and settings . I use the book for inspiration in my work. It is also a beautiful coffee table book. Each time I look through it I discover something I didn't notice before. I love it!!!
