Mark Eley and Wakako Kishimoto have reworked prints from the 22 years of Eley Kishimoto archives for their first wallpaper range.

"The new collection is the latest incarnation of a continually evolving design aesthetic; a re-working of seminal prints from the studio's archive that unifies existing designs with both garments and walls, resulting in a visceral exploration of surface decoration," said a statement from the duo.

Camo Chevron

The collection includes 12 different patterns, each available in a variety of colour combinations. They include La La Lyon, a contemporary interpretation of a traditional damask pattern.

Light on Lattice

Venice, Camo Chevron and Light on Lattice are each made up of geometric grids, while Vanity Cats, Monster Skin and Pedigree Entourage all reference animals.

Frills

A photograph showing strips of wavy fabric was abstracted to create the Frills print and stars are paired with floral motifs in the Galaxy design.

Galaxy Bouquet

The wallpapers were printed by hand in the designers' Brixton studio. "The collection also celebrates a desire to create exquisite, handcrafted artefacts in a world of fast, digital production," the statement said.

Monster Skin

The collection will launch at London trade fair Decorex, which runs from 21 to 24 September.

Sun Loving Bollards

A selection of the designs will also feature at London Print Studio's Wallpaper: Artist's Interior Worlds exhibition until 1 November 2014.

La La Lyon

Other studios that have launched wallpaper ranges this year include fashion house Maison Martin Margiela, designers Claesson Koivisto Rune and artists Studio Job.
