The collections produced by Holland & Sherry's Long Island City wallcovering studio represent hand-painted wallpaper at its finest. Each of their artists has both a fine arts degree and many years of experience in the field, and their skills are reflected in the craftsmanship of their work.

Every design is conceived and executed in their workspace in Long Island City, using painting techniques that are innovative yet rooted in tradition. They are inspired by their urban environment, as well as by the commonplace items around them that creative minds employ to create singularly uncommon products. Beautiful, luxurious, and durable their painted wallcoverings lend themselves to unlimited customization.

On the artists' tables, paint meets its masters. Most of the tools are handmade from found, repurposed items chosen for the unique effects they yield.
