Misha adds a poetic, expressive dimension to contemporary interiors
BRAND SPOTLIGHT:?MISHA MILANO
Misha is an Italian company that specialises in creating exquisite hand-painted wallpapers. The name Misha represents a merger between the two cities, Milan and Shanghai. The company was founded in 2007 by two sisters who discovered a passion for hand painted silk while living in Shanghai. The artistic form dates back to 17th century China.?
The careful selection of the artisans and the extreme quality of their work are the factors that set Misha apart. With its flexible structure and patient process of honing exclusive products to a very high level of quality, Misha is a haute couture atelier.
Materials
Misha applies the same level of artistic perfection to the base materials used in the creative process. There is an exacting focus applied to ensure the tactile qualities of different silks, the textures of metal leaf applied by hand, and the luminosity of powders brushed onto the surfaces all deliver on the creative promise. The colour range is updated each year to adapt to new trends. Wallpaper collections are made in Pure Silk, Dupion Silk or Double Silk and metallic wallcoverings, which trigger different effects for the design. The choice of the woven or metallic background is a key factor in the interior design and in the impact of the motifs of each wallcovering.
The metallic wallcoverings are an artisanal product in their own right using a range of different workmanship techniques: from metal leaf applied by hand, smooth or with a craquelé effect, to powders brushed on by hand and then coated with metallic varnishes. All base materials are available for supply in plain format as a standalone product or to complement hand-painted panels.

The Misha collections are designed in Italy and hand painted by Chinese artisans with many years of training and experience. The stunning designs retain age-old Asian themes, whilst synthesising both oriental and western historical references and imagery. The artistic quality of the products is what sets them apart: like frescos, wallcoverings become a form of expression that contribute to the design composition of interior spaces.
