Great Wall Against SOPA

This image was created on Great Wall's Polyvore account.

We have chosen to feature our Binary Nightmare  custom mural from the Wallgazer collection today.  It's a really fun wallcovering  with 0s and 1s cascading down sporadically.   The binary nightmare wallpaper is a stylish way to play up your techy side, be you nerd or geek. Have a  loved one who's attached to his laptop?  He or She  love this in his home office.   It would also be really fun decor in an IT office.

We found these NERD bookends on Etsy.com

You may have seen that sites like Wikipedia.org and Reddit.com were down on Jan 18th in protest of SOPA and PIPA. These bills would essentially create large fines and jail time for posting any copyrighted material. You could be sued for something as simple as posting a fun picture of a cat on your Facebook. This wonderful blog would not be able to link to the youtube video for Chumbawamba's song "Tubthumping". The size of these fines are a true threat for small business owners, as well as the general public.  Click here to sign the petition against destroying the greatest communication tool ever created. 

Unleash the Hounds

On our wallpaper inspiration blog, our most popular concept has been Great Wall's over-sized houndstooth.  

I created this collage on our Polyvore account. 

With such a bold patten, you may think your decor options would be limited; not so. This wallpaper is amazing for mixing with simple white or neutral furniture.  Because it is achromatic, it's also great for contrast with your favorite color. Houndstooth checks originated in the woold cloth of the Scottish Lowlands. It has become an iconic pattern now, being used in clothing, phone covers, bags, hats, pillows, even nails.

The book "Knoll Textiles, 1945- 2010" features a houndstooth skyline used as 

an advertisement for Knoll Advertising 1965.

The houndstooth is the first in a signature collection of fabric-inspired wallpapers that Great Wall has in the works.  Your favorite fabric textures will be printed on high-quality wallpaper in customizable colors. By creating it in such a large scale, this classic look is far from boring.  We will also be launching an aubergine version. Remember that all of our wallpapers are available in custom colors. 

Feature of the Day: "Ameba" Wallgazer Wallpaper

At Great Wall, we print custom murals, banner, wallpaper; we even print those giant checks that people win at office parties. But we are all artists first. We can become inspired by fashion, books, nature, not just an Ikea catalog. We recently started a Polyvore account. Polyvore is a sight where people can take items, images, and create collages simple, artistic, editorial, etc. It originally began as a shopping site, but it is now also a way to express yourself. It is very in depth and addictive. It's a way to quickly get your aesthetic ideas across.

Within just a few weeks, people have really responded to our "Ameba" wallgazer wallpaper. It's a great neutral, because it isn't boring. It's really can help accent the crazy bright color of your choice. We are honored to see that people have found this so inspiring and versatile. We are taking some creative license with the spelling.

We created this one for our personal page. greatwall.polyvore.com The Amoeba wallpaper was great to show off some neutrals, and champagnes for ringing in the new Year.
