“I like applying wallpaper to the ceiling and on the inside of cabinets and closets. In the client’s sleeping nook, I ran vertical stripes up the wall, onto the ceiling, and down the opposite wall.” —Designer Peter Wilds

“The sleeping space was technically a storage locker attached to the studio suite from the inside,” Wilds says. To “visually blow open the space,” he clad the exterior and part of the interior with custom mirror. The gold gnome stool by Kartell from Livingspace acts as a bedside table, and the amber pendant fixture by Tom Dixon from Inform Interiors lends a warm glow. The goat image, from Mint, is actually the face of a cabinet; it opens to reveal the apartment’s electrical box. The headboard is a custom piece by Peter Wilds Design, made with Nina Campbell Filigrane Belzoro fabric; the bedding is by Provide; and the wool throw is from the Cross Décor & Design. The striped wallpaper is Oxbridge from Designers Guild. GRAY ISSUE No. FOURTEEN
