Papier Français

Nadine Thaslim

Project Overview

I’ve collaborated with Papier Français to breathe new life into historic wallpaper designs. The brand partners with museums and estates to license vintage patterns, some over a century old, and my role is to faithfully restore and digitize them for modern production.
Using Adobe Illustrator, I carefully recreate seamless repeat patterns from archival imagery, often working with incomplete or damaged originals. This requires a blend of technical precision and creative intuition to reconstruct missing elements while preserving the integrity of the original design. In some cases, I also develop illustrative mockups that spotlight the details, mood, and story behind each collection.

Collections I Worked On:

Art Deco (2025) – Revived rare designs from 1925 sourced from the Musée des Arts Décoratifs. • Joël Stein – Adapted complex geometric art into repeat patterns, staying true to Stein’s mathematical visual language. • Créatone – Digitized iconic wallpapers and produced scene illustrations to showcase the collection’s elegance in a modern context.
