The national edition of Curbed takes a look at Cobble Hill’s Flavor Paper. While we don’t heart being called the “hinterlands” it’s great to see a local business get a big look like this:
Curbed: Jon Sherman, founder and head designer of the wallpaper firm Flavor Paper,packed up and moved himself and his business to the commercial hinterlands of Cobble Hill, Brooklyn, he must have known the new place would have to make a splash. The new industrial-looking building, designed by Jeff Kovel of Skylab Architecture, is kitted out on the interior with some of Flavor Paper’s most striking designs. The roof garden is bordered by bright purple paneling, the master bedroom of Sherman’s personal penthouse is done up in faux fur, and the skylit living room features a deeply textured modern fireplace. Quite a showplace for Flavor Paper’s products, enough to keep clients like Lenny Kravitz and Frank Gehry coming across the river.
