Sonia's Place Inc

Upper East Side walls have stories—sometimes they whisper, sometimes they shout. Sonia’s Place Inc gives those stories pattern and rhythm. A wallpaper store tucked into the commercial pulse of 979 3rd Ave #1001, it supplies the neighborhood’s quiet revolutions: a powder room transformed by damask, a hallway softened with grasscloth, or a bedroom wrapped in metallic whispers.

Wallpaper has outgrown its reputation for fussy florals and peeling edges. Today’s designs run the gamut from bold geometric murals to delicate hand-painted silks, and this shop keeps pace without the museum price tags. The address—10022—places it within walking distance of Madison’s antique dealers and Yorkville’s brownstones, making it a logical pit stop for anyone plotting a refresh.

Questions about repeat sizes, adhesive types, or custom colorways can be answered by calling (212) 355-5211. The same number works for samples and swatch books, so you can test the paper against your own light before committing.

For directions, pull up the map on your phone. Once you’re inside the elevator bank, look for suite 1001—no need to guess which floor.
