Esparto Africano
arte-international > Wallcovering
Esparto is a strong fibre made from two species of perennial grasses of North Africa, Spain and Portugal. In woven form it is used for all kinds of crafts, to create both decorative and utilitarian objects. In this instance, it inspired a design in which the rigid shapes contrast beautifully with the randomly organised pattern.
Verdure
arte-international > Wallcovering
Nobody knows exactly when the first verdures were created, but by the 16th century, these tapestries were everywhere. They were entirely filled with decorative foliage, which was often highlighted by a masterful interplay of sun and dappled shade. Verdure's lush leaf pattern, which draws on these traditional tapestries for inspiration, is hand-painted. Light and shadow planes have been rendered with the greatest care, to create a superb setting with plenty of depth. The painting was then transferred onto a luxury fil-à-fil fabric, just the perfect choice for this opulent ornamental design.
Chalk Stone
arte-international > Wallcovering
A design that is all about detail and a homage to travertine, a chalk stone used to make sustainable artisan tiles. The Romans used travertine to build large parts of Rome, including the Colosseum. This metallic variant stands out because of its simplicity.
Impasto
arte-international > Wallcovering
This design is named after a centuries-old painting technique, Impasto, whereby the paint is laid on the surface very thickly, with visible brush strokes, enhancing the texture of this wallcovering for a very realistic result. Impasto is printed on metal foil, combining the best of both worlds: a seamless blend of artisanship and an industrial look and feel.
Tintura
arte-international > Wallcovering
This semi-plain product has the pure look and texture of woven linen. The pieces of fabric are arranged casually next to each other and sewn into place with a coarse, clearly visible stitch. The result is a balanced and at the same time lively wallcovering with a textile look and feel.
Medjoul

This design has a great deal of relief, due to the technique used and the voluminous material. The pattern is inspired by date palms, a common plant in the Middle East.
Gobi
arte-international > Wallcovering
As soon as night falls, millions of stars appear in the clear sky of the Gobi Desert, one of the coldest deserts in the world. The comparison with a magnificent starry sky is unmistakable.

Ténéré

Tinto

Le Rotin
arte-international > Wallcovering
This tone-on-tone pattern is a natural imitation of rattan, barely distinguishable from the real thing. Thanks to the variegation of fibres, a nuanced shadow play of light and dark is created. The coloured background enhances this effect.
Tela
arte-international > Wallcovering

Section
arte-international > Wallcovering

This makes Les Cuirs unique and exceptional.
