Who could miss the big, bold patterns that led the wallpaper revival of the past few years? Like supermodels, they strut their stuff on great expanses of walls in chic homes, hotels, stores and restaurants. But the new darlings on the scene - petite prints - have Kate Moss attitude, if you will.

Nostalgia for tiny prints of yore may have sparked the renewed interest, but today’s mini-prints are far from demure. Larger than life from afar, they reveal their true charm up close: the surprise of a design-within-the-design. In big spaces, these densely packed patterns work as hard as their glamazon counterparts, but their diminutive scale functions almost as a texture on a wall. Unexpectedly versatile, they easily combine with bold patterns in the same palette, or even the same pattern in a coordinating shade.
