Maya and Joyce Romanoff
Maya Romanoff Corporation is located in Chicago and is a world leader in the production of sophisticated wallpaper and other decoration materials. Driven by the inventiveness of Maya and Joyce Romanoff since 1969, the corporation has made a breakthrough in modern design, combining ancient craft skills with modern industrial production and a dedication to a clean product ecology. Once starting with hand-painted ties, Maya Romanoff became one of the leading creators of innovative wallpapers for commercial and residential design. His company, Maya Romanoff, was one of the first who, experimenting with unparalleled production skills and the most unexpected materials, discovered new finishing materials for use in interior design. Starting with an enthusiasm for tie-dye spontaneous dyeing techniques (based on the African Batik principle), which inspired the creation of a hand-made sales leader, Weathered Walls ™, today Maya Romanoff presents a wide range of innovative wallpapers for commercial and residential real estate design.
Joyce, what kind of materials do you use to produce your wallpaper?
As wall coverings we offer copper and aluminum plates, glass beads, paper weaving, grass and thin sections of shells. Maya Romanoff 'wallpapers come in rolls and tiles, depending on the material. Most often they shine and shimmer. A skillfully installed light source will emphasize the sparkling effect of the coatings. Our 21-material collection includes the Precious Metals ™ coating, created by hand-painting a real metal sheet onto paper using sticks; Ajiro ™ - decorative inlaid wood from restored trunks Maya Romanoff 54 "™ Type II Vinyls - more affordable wallpapers that are produced during a complex process that results in rich and original materials; Mother of Pearl ™ - the thinnest plates of a real mother of pearl shell hand-encrusted in flexible, easy to install tiles; True Metals ™ - copper, brass and aluminum tiles, and capable of not losing their unique shades for a long time. And so on. Another direction in design Maya Romanoff 'Workshop is a collection of eco-friendly coatings. Maya's passion for oriental philosophy led to the creation of handmade wallpapers from natural and environmentally friendly materials. We only work with factories that produce environmentally friendly raw materials and try to use "clean" paints and adhesives. Modern coatings from Maya Romanoff are no longer as adventurous as the early experiments, but always “glamorous.” Your customers live in different countries of the world.
Do not remember the most interesting projects of the company?
Since its founding and over the years, Maya Romanoff Design House has been collecting the most prestigious national and international awards. Maya Romanoff created a brilliant bead curtain for the Harris Music and Dance Theater in Millennium Park, as well as installations for three Nobu restaurants, and most of the rooms at Steve Wynn's Encore Las Vegas Resort. In addition, we did rich projects for many prominent clients, including the Crown Prince of the Emirate of Dubai, who was then his current ruler, Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum.
In 2009, the company celebrated its 40th anniversary. And today, Maya Romanoff continues to be a leading force in the design community of the United States and around the world, while maintaining the fundamental philosophy and passion for the style of Maya Rommanoff Corporation in the name of creating unusual works of art.
I must say that in 2002, Maya Romanoff literally shocked the design world with the launch of Beadazzled ™ Flexible Glass Bead Wallcovering, flexible and shiny tiles made of beads, glass beads and beads of various sizes, made using a unique technology patented by the corporation. These exclusive materials became a permanent part of the Cooper-Hewitt National Design Museum and came out in 5 exciting new versions in spring 2005. In addition to the standard Beadazzled line, the materials of which can be ordered in tiles or rolls in any color and length, Beadazzled ™ Murals has become the embodiment of art and fragments of designs created from electronic images that customers provide. Beadazzled canvases adorn a huge number of famous places from the Neiman Marcus Shop in Dallas to the Geisha Restaurant in New York. From frescoes to the entire height of the wall to framed images, Maya Romanoff exceeded expectations again, providing unlimited possibilities for design selection for any interior. Another passion of the company is decorative inlay by Pawlonia tree. The thinnest layer of natural wood is applied to the paper base, and a pattern is applied on top in the classic mosaic-marquetry technique. All lines of elegant ornament are cut with a laser. Thin “wooden wallpapers” that can be used to paste on a wall or a pillar look luxurious and aristocratically sophisticated.
"Wooden wallpaper" is a discreet luxury for those who want to create a luxury interior, but are tired of the sparkle of rhinestones and gold. Such beauty costs accordingly and is expensive. One running meter of “wallpaper” can cost 300-500 euros, but the unique decoration created using them will make you immediately forget about the money spent. Everything that leaves Maya Romanoff workshops for more than 40 years looks so unusual and spectacular.
