Earth’s Sanctuary — Aqua Intima — Nishiki Wallpapers

The Aqua Intima (from Latin for “innermost water”) series includes Nishiki (in honor of nishikigoi meaning ”ornamental koi”). Zenshin (from the Japanese word meaning “whole body/whole self”) begins with hand drawn and painted nishikigoi gliding through an underwater garden, capturing water, movement, and light. The supporting patterns, Rara (from the Latin for “rare, few”) and Ripples, echo the fish and water’s surface enabling walls within this theme to visually flow seamlessly into adjoining rooms.
