All this talk of wallpapers can be confusing especially as @ Origin we do things very differently from the other wallpaper folk. We print your wallpaper in Australia for any wall dimensions AND pattern size to your preferred scale.  We work with you and use the latest technology to ensure you get amazing wall art. Also, forget that PVC stuff from overseas...it's not our thing!

So here's a bit of a case study, Catherine saw Pradera by Inna on the Origin www. She loved the mural idea and we worked with her to get the sizing just right. 

She took a picture of the wall with her iPhone, measured the wall(height+width) and emailed these details to us. We "photoshopped" her iPhone pic, putting together her swatch which included the "in situ pic", specifications and a full sized artwork proof. This was emailed to Catherine for a final approval before Origin mailed her the swatch. A week later she ordered her wallpaper. 3 days later it was installed. 
Job done! Happy Customer!

You gotta love doing the different stuff!

Just over a week ago the visionaries behind the new Wee Bar in Oxford St, Mt Hawthorn gave us a call.  We were at the end of a long list of suppliers both locally and overseas where they'd tried unsuccessfully to source black and white check wallpaper.

In short we got the call Friday arvo, that weekend we put the design together, photoshopped up some in situ pics, printed some samples, and away we went.  Minor detail was that they wanted it printed and installed on the ceiling of the new Wee Bar within the week.  Done!

Big thanks to Annelies, Vicky and of course Ian Lawless @ Wee Bar.

Our backs and necks have nearly recovered from the installation. Thanks also to Yelo Oxford St for keeping us fuelled on coffee and cake.

I had a spare day and finally got some more wallpaper up at home. The artwork is made up of about 260 Hipstamatic pics I took with my iPhone after my big Canon SLR stopped working on the 2nd day in Morocco. Big shout out to the crew at Apple for designing these magical devices. This is my first youtube effort, I'll think I'll stick to printing!!

Been a busy couple of days at Origin Wallpapers as we've had our first Australian designer come on board. 

Here are a couple of pics Julie's A3 sample swatches coming off the printers.  All full range of designs are now on the OW website and samples can be ordered online. Lots of retro and modern vintage going on!


Her designs are fresh, bright and work really well as step and repeats or stunning murals.
