Schumacher teamed up with Brooklyn-based artist and textile designer Caroline Z Hurley for a free-spirited collection called A Flower a Day. The selection features 17 new wallcoverings and 20 fabric-by-the-yard prints developed from the designer’s pandemic ritual of drawing a single flower every day in her sketchbook. Our current crush is the whimsical Meadow Rock design, available in six earth-toned colorways.
