New ‘vintage’ wall hangings from Quercus & Co

By Jen Bishop •

FacebookPinEmailTweet

Launched last week by Quercus & Co, these colour charts are based on original illustrations by colour theory pioneers like Philipp Otto Runge and Johannes Itten. A must for design nerds if you ask me!

CAT COLOUR CHARTS 2

They feature large scale diagrams handpainted in their own “washy-watercolour” style with handwritten traditional colour descriptions including beauties like Heliotrope, Cochineal, Duck Egg, Celeste, Amaranth, Madder Lake, Paris Green to name a few.

Also available in the new range are wall hangings with designs from their collection of wallpaper patterns. These decorative artworks have an eclectic, vintage vibe.

CAT TAPES WALL HANGING 2

The charts and wall hangings are all printed onto sturdy artist’s canvas and fixed with Cedar dowel, cotton tape and brass rings for hanging. The prints can be easily wiped clean and rolled up for storage or shipping.

quercus detail

Charts and wall hangings start from $245 (100 x 70cm).

The designs featured on the charts and wall hangings are also available as unframed art prints on acid-free textured paper. Art Prints start from $60 (50 x 40cm).

quercus art prints

Available direct from Quercus & Co. Trade and wholesale prices are available on request.

For your chance to win a wall hanging of your choice worth $245 please make sure you’re signed up to our weekly newsletter then comment below (by midnight Friday) where you’d hang it and why. ENTRIES ARE NOW CLOSED.

Colour hug, anyone?! A collaboration with design Colour hug, anyone?!

A collaboration with design studio Nexus Designs, this palette from the new @haymespaint colour forecast is perfect for those looking to create a tranquil environment and has a particular focus on darker shades.

“Inspired by the qualities of an intimate reading room, confident and expressive colours such as Florida Everglade have a muted depth that embody this. Balanced and subtle, it’s also invigorating and luscious. Through all over application, paired with contemporary furniture and styling, this colour and the broader palette plays with tactility, translucency, reflection, and form,” says Myra Murtagh of Nexus.

Slammed for being too small, @kyleandleslie's living room was otherwise praised by the judges for being beautifully styled.

"In terms of using it as a marketing platform it’s been amazing," he said. "Even for people who don’t follow the show it’s validation that they are following an artist that’s levelling up. The exposure has translated to sales, traffic and attention and it’s everything I wanted because I’m about to launch a new collection.”

Real reno: How's this for a luxe bathroom?! Natas Real reno: How's this for a luxe bathroom?!

Natasha from QLD recently finished a major reno of her Queenslander and this is her favourite room of all. We can see why!

She used @beaumont.tiles  Lux Calcutta slabs in gloss the wall and matt for the floor.

 "We have infused a Hamptons style whilst still remaining true to the traditions of old Queenslanders," she said. "Our bathroom is north west facing and captures such great morning light. We wrapped the cabinetry all the way along the vanity for ease of access for the bath, towels and accessories. We tiled all the way to the ceiling to create a more luxurious space. It's my favourite room in the house!"

Brimming with fun, functionality and colour, the home is shared by ex MasterChef contestant Peter Kritikides, his wife Erica and their two children. 

Occupied by the family since 2015, the renovation brief called for a sympathetic yet modern upgrade to the heritage listed original home as well as the demolition and rebuild of the back of the residence.

    I am obsessed with wall hangings at the moment, I just adore these! I have the perfect spot in my kitchen/dining area of our newly renovated house just screaming out for something like this to make a home on it’s walls. Although I do love the way how they’ve styled the Tapestry wall hanging in Indian Yellow on the Quercus & Co website by hanging it on an easel, genius and amazing!

Painting and creativity has brought me so much new found joy and I’m starting understand more and more the power of colour (correct spelling in Australia.)

    My family have been slowly renovating a tiny run-down house. Our one small living area has a blank wall above our couch. I’ve been trying to decide what to put there for a whole year. It’s the one place where we could hang art, mirrors, photos etc. I finally decided on a colourful wall hanging. One of these hangings would be a wonderful way to add some personality and vitality to our little home.

    You can never have too much colour and inspiration in a design office so they would have to go above my desk in my home office. I’m sure I can find space 😉

    I have just purchased my first home and am so excited to have discovered this website to help me design and decorate the interior. At this stage I would hang it in the dining room to add a pop of colour, but this may change as I am learning more and more each day about design!

    After over thirty years in the one old house I have now moved into a new home with a totally empty space for my art room/office. How wonderful to hang one of these as the inspiration for designing both the room itself and the work that will hopefully happen there!

    Perfect. I use my old colour wheel all the time. It hangs above my desk in my office and my kids have ripped the side of it. These colour charts would replace my old one and I’m sure I would love to look at it more than my old torn colour chart. These are beautiful. Love the wood rods.

    As a point of interest, and definite talking point, I’d have this interesting piece by Quuercus & Co in my coffee nook in the living room, so I can share with friends! The beautiful colour variations also lend to the idea of the living room walls being able to colour match with some of the flavours in the print….

    I would place the colour sphere chart above my 15 year old son’s study desk in our hallway. He’s studying graphic arts (all computerised of course) so it would be awesome to try and infiltrate his technology laden mind in such a cool passive way.

    Would love to hand one of these posters in our studio, we have great inspiration boards, photo’s etc but one of these posters would totally compliment the environment of the studio we house built in the 1950’s, complete with big swing door that looks out to the green. Not only would it be eye candy but a totally useful tool to point at. “Practical Style” in other words.

    Every day when I return home from work I am greeted by a blank wall, opposite the entrance to my home. A white, blank wall. Since discovering Quercus an Co’s wallpapers, I have dreamt of covering that wall with one of their amazing prints. To fill that space with a colourful, inspiring, happy-smile inducing Quercus and Co Wall Hanging would make my day, every day.

    What a great giveaway ! My husband is a artist /painter so I would love to win this for him to put in his studio over his myriad of paint pots, it would be a welcome change from his style of art and a perfect way to match a difficult paint colour and shade when he gets stuck and has to go and refer to images online and in book to achieve the perfect shade for his works.

    I am mature aged/young at heart woman who was made redundant in July this year.
    That word (redundant!) says it all really….Finding employment when one is over a certain age is incredibly challenging on so many levels, and I could speak volumes about this topic!
    It is a ‘game’ changer!
    Armed with just a certificate in colour and design and currently study Graphic Design, I now plan to work for myself.
    I would love and appreciate having this wall hanging as my inspiration and motivational piece while I work towards my dreams in my home office/study.

    I’m in love with these colour charts, and I wanted to get one. But, with Christmas and everything, I couldn’t afford it. I especially love the 4 colour ball chart, it’s stunning on the vintage looking rods and string. Hopefully Santa (or Jen Addict) will pop one down my chimney for Christmas!? xo Loving your work… all the way from Perth!
