White-glove wallcovering installation for pre-war co-ops, Park Avenue duplexes, and Fifth Avenue residences. Master handling of hand-painted de Gournay silks, Gracie murals, natural grasscloth, and full $2M COI compliance.
The Upper East Side features some of the finest pre-war architecture in the world. Installing wallpapers in premier buildings along Fifth Avenue, Park Avenue, and Carnegie Hill requires strict adherence to co-op house rules, complete hallway protection, and the highest standard of artisan execution.
At ProKir Design, we specialize in luxury hand-painted silks, custom panoramic scenics, and natural grasscloths that demand museum-grade precision. We never compromise on surface prep: old plaster is repaired, skim coated to Level 5 flatness, and conditioned with high-grade wallpaper primer.
Selected projects from across NYC and the tri-state area — the same team, prep and finish we bring to every Upper East Side home.
