ALTER EGO

Drawing inspiration from the fine art of painted decorative illusion, paneled millwork, faux wood-grain, lacquered surfaces, and aged metals, Alter Ego examines the relationship between surface, materiality, and architecture. Through scale, pattern, and visual illusion, each design creates the impression of architectural depth while remaining distinctly decorative.

The collection combines original hand-painted artwork by Xavier Donnelly with specialty substrates: mica-coated grounds, advanced printing techniques, and hand-applied gloss coatings. These layered production methods capture the visual complexity and depth of decorative finishes. 

Alter Ego is unapologetically bold, saturated, reflective, and alive. Three distinct, persuasive designs, confident enough to play the part.
