No matter where I look these days there seems to be an octopus. This is a very striking wallpaper -- you have to go to the site and look at the full wall to really appreciate it. I think it must be meant to accent just one wall -- the octopus part is easily twice as tall as me. Decorating all the rooms in your house with this design would be... overwhelming. I assume it scales depending on the size of your wall.

The darkly amusing text on the website:

"The Octopus originates from a well known fish merchant (Pescheria Brunelli) in Bologne and was photografed on location for the gohome collection by C.S.Kisselbach. The octopus was treat respectfully and after its grand appearance was cooked and eaten. "

who knew an octopus could be such an amazing decor motif? check out this site for other "urban living" wallpapers (via Micasa)

This is my favourite from the gohome range. Although if given the choice i wouldve chosen a negative where one or two of the octopus arms are extended. The circular outline of this graphic is reminiscent of a catherine wheel... Otherwise it's funky as!

omg, I am obsessed with cephalopods...yea I'm a marine geek. looooove this, just want to wrap myself in tentacles

i love it - but then i love all things octopi! :)

Very hip wall covering, love it! Considering it for one of my current projects. I am curious to find out even more about what they have to offer. Very original.
