Genius At Work: Unlike Any Other

FOR MORE THAN three decades and counting, the exceptionalism shown by de Gournay in its creation of wallpaper demonstrates how far it is prepared to go for its clients, who can specify exactly what wallpaper they wish to have before it is created. In the words of de Gournay, this effort is "the ultimate striving for perfection to bring long-lasting happiness". Bringing forth this aura of happiness are de Gournay's artisans who employ vibrant, balanced and contrasting colours to realise a client's dreams.
