ANANAS – Schumacher Wallpaper
Design story
Step into a vibrant tropical world with ANANAS, a wallpaper pattern that evokes the exuberance of the 1930s and the adventurous spirit of exotic travel. Designed by Paul Poiret exclusively for Schumacher in 1930, this pattern channels a lively, sun-drenched mood that instantly lifts any interior with a sense of bold elegance and playful charm.
What makes ANANAS truly beautiful is its dynamic composition of large-scale motifs — lush banana leaves intertwined with clusters of pineapples and yellow florals. The pattern flows effortlessly with a rhythmic movement, balancing dense foliage with areas of negative space, allowing each motif room to breathe. The fine line quality and detailed rendering add depth and a hand-crafted feel, inviting close appreciation of every curve and vein.
The PALMcolorway offers a fresh, natural palette that changes subtly throughout the day. In bright daylight, the greens appear verdant and crisp, while the soft yellows and browns bring warmth. In evening light, the colors mellow into a cozy, enveloping atmosphere. A slight sheen on the surface enhances the texture, catching light gently without overwhelming, making it ideal for spaces that benefit from a lively yet sophisticated backdrop.
