By: Carl Nagaitis, Bryher Business Partnership The Managing Director of Preston-based Forrest & Jones, a company fast building a reputation for the ability to produce cutting edge wallpapers and wall-covering designs and systems, said wall-coverings of the future would be ultra-personalised. And the technologies used to hang them would enable both home and business owners to rotate their domestic or office wall-coverings by the season if they so wished. “The advances we have seen in recent years mean that, if you wished, you could order wallpapers featuring the faces of friends and family if you wanted,” added Gareth, speaking from his office in Penwortham. “And by utilising magnetic paints and magnetic wall-coverings you could have one look for spring and a completely different one for summer. In fact thanks to seamless wallpaper techniques you could have a different look every season. “Obviously a bespoke wallpaper would normally be more expensive than an off the shelf product, yet new technology means such an option is now extremely affordable. “ Gareth said the many new developments in his sector would give interior designers even more opportunities to be creative. “We currently offer customers something we call SwitchScene™ “At the moment it is being used as an advertising medium by business customers but the concept could be used in countless ways – even in the home. So who knows what will be available to the interior designers of the future?” In addition to the new developments in his industry sector, Gareth is delighted with the fact that his business is becoming ‘greener’ too. “One of the great achievements is our industry’s move away from the use of PVC for the graphics that we use in Switch Scene for instance,” explained Gareth. “It’s well known PVC is not bio-degradable and gives off dioxins when burned so we now use materials made from the much greener and totally bio-degradable polypropylene.” For further information click onto: www.forrestandjones.com ENDS End
