Lonesome Pictopia

Rooted in American tattooing, the wild spaces of the Pacific Northwest, and the belief that all work should be a force for good, Lonesome Pictopia is a woman-owned design collective creating magical worlds with our original wallpapers, textiles, and murals. After fifteen years as a custom tattoo artist, LP founder Melanie Nead turned her love of plants and pattern to creating one-of-a-kind, hand-painted murals, with an eye on releasing a house line in the spirit of historic wallcoverings. After years of work and development, we are so proud of our deeply designed wallpapers, traditionally printed in the UK by a sustainable manufacturer of some of the finest wallpapers in the world. Our work has appeared in Architectural Digest US, Architectural Digest Russia, and Luxe Magazine, among others. Wallpaper sales support our mission of giving back to the community through partnerships with nonprofits working to fight housing insecurity in Portland and beyond, and of creating meaningful jobs for women in the arts.
