Fifth Wall Design
Fifth Wall Design Caption Change: Designer Jaimie Belew added graphic wallpaper to the ceiling -- the so-called fifth wall -- of the Atelier Alcove at the San Francisco Decorator Showcase 2013, a great way to add detail to a space. The neutral walls in this craft room create enough of a break between the pattern of the ceiling wallpaper and graphic flooring for the design to feel completely unified.
