A Fair to Remember
DesignSTL
|Jan/Feb 2020
One St. Louis family’s dining room walls are a repository of history and family stories.
When Kathy and Bryan Nicholson were ready to renovate the 1950s Colonial in Ladue they had lived in for five years, Kathy knew that the dated, dark- floral wallpaper in the dining room had to go—she just wasn’t sure what she’d put in its place. An art history major, Kathy has always loved painted, architectural wallpapers, but she thought she could achieve a similar, but singular, look with a mural. Searching for inspiration, she discovered artist Peter Engelsmann’s website, and was captivated by his elegant mural of Forest Park, filled with pretty pastoral scenes. In that moment, Kathy knew that Engelsmann could fulfill her vision of a mural depicting the St. Louis 1904 World’s Fair in her own home.
“Bryan and I were both raised here and have wonderful memories of Bryan’s mom telling us stories about her great-grandmother sneaking out at night to meet friends at the Fair,” Kathy says.

Cut from the Same Cloth
“Turkey Tracks” is a 19th-century quiltmaking pattern that has the appearance of little wandering feet. Patterns like the tracks, and their traditions and myths, have been passed down through the generations, from their frontier beginnings to today, where a generation of makers has embraced the material as a means of creating something new. Olivia Jondle is one such designer. Here, she’s taken an early turkey track-pattern quilt, cut it into various shapes, and stitched the pieces together, adding calico and other fabric remnants as needed. The result is a trench coat she calls the Pale Calico Coat. Her designs are for sale at The Rusty Bolt, Jondle’s small-batch fashion company based in St. Louis. —SAMANTHA STEVENSON
