Liberty's Fields of Flowers - NYTimes.com The London company Liberty began selling textiles for furnishings in 1874, but a century later it licensed out the interiors side of the business to put more energy into fashion. Now that the license is expired, Liberty has been reeling home décor back with collections like Nesfield, new coordinated fabrics, wallpaper and paint that reflect the company's heritage of elaborate prints and vibrant colors. Named for William Nesfield, a 19th-century English landscape architect, the collection draws from Liberty's archive of some 43,000 designs. Patterns include "classic chintzy small flora" and "some quite big abstract paisleys and geometrics," said Kirstie Carey, managing director of Liberty Wholesale. Though Nesfield "is not going to be for the faint of heart," Ms. Carey added, those who fear a festival of flowers do have the option of picking one or two elements. "All the styles work together," she said. Information: liberty.co.uk.
