COLONIALE
Coloniale collection, a call to the wild and unexplored nature of Africa, evident both in the choice of warm and sophisticated colors and in the selection of the subjects. Unexpected patterns that play with the African fauna creating fun repetitions or the reference to the colonial style revisited in a Toile de Juile with the color shades of the oldest continent!
An extra idea to create a unique and sophisticated corner inside your home!
INFINITE EN
The Infinite wallpaper collection (Design by Fabrizio Bianchetti), granted the 2021 Good Design Award, seeks out the multiple expressive possibilities of colour.
The Infinite collection – which include previous structural variations , micro and macro-geometries – have been implemented with a series of 21 trendy nuances for 2023, encoded by an NCS colour code (NCS license ®© 3.0 – Italy).
As usual, the collection is open to further customization. Our graphic office Atelier Foliae can reproduce, on request, all the shades of the NCS color chart, being Foliae a licensee of the trademark NCS.
THE NUANCE
INFINITE GEO
In 2023 the Infinite collection is integrated with a new and complete series of composition and decorations: a geometric base is combined with floreal designs and artistic touches, which use the entire range of NCS in the catalogue, in a vibrant explosion of colour.
As usual, also for this new release, the Infinite section makes use of designs derived from micro and macro-geometries and structural declinations.
CAMPITURE
In the 22-23 proposal, Infinite is enriched by a new section called Campiture, that reproduces a series of compositions and geometric decorations that use solid colours combined with the NCS colours in the catalogue and the related effects tratto and velato, a further variation of the background used.
The Campiture section can also use drawings derived from the micro and macro-geometry variations. “Circles” is an example of this type of application.
STRUCTURAL VARIATIONS
Infinite collection tones can be reproduced in full tonality on different supports that we provide, also with the following surface effects which offer diversified material highlights.
Infinite collection can be enriched by a series of graphic decorations represented with micro and macro-geometries that define new surfaces with texture repetition.
MERLETTO EN
MERLETTO COLLECTION
Design by Fabrizio Bianchetti
The art of Lace – Merletto – originates from a love story. A romantic legend tells that a long time ago in Burano lived a young fisherman named Nicolò, engaged to Maria, a local girl he loved madly. A few days before the wedding, the young man was in the high seas with his boat and was tempted by the fascinating singing of the Mermaids; but since he was newly betrothed, Ulysses resisted the persuasive call and remained faithful to his beloved. The Queen of the Mermaids, impressed by the fisherman’s strong fidelity, swung her tail to strike the side of the young man’s boat, lifting a dazzling mass of foam that formed a magnificent wedding veil, a finely embroidered lace. On the wedding day, Nicolò gave the precious veil to his bride: this gift aroused so much admiration that the women of Burano, with needle and very delicate thread, learned to make a fabric that would be worthy of the wedding gift of the fairy tale. From this tradition, different variations of the art of lace were developed in numerous Regions of Italy (as can be seen in numerous provincial museums). Our Merletto collection honours this tradition by drawing inspiration from it for its own designs.

MERLETTO – THE NUANCES
MERLETTO – THE DESIGNS
All the colour variations obtainable with the 40 colours of the catalogue can be reproduced with all the designs of the Merletto Collection.
MERLETTO – LACE POP
Lace Pop is a contemporary and modern proposal that explores and expands the expressive possibilities of Merletto. The varying size of the print and the use of bright colours for the background provide a contemporary interpretation of the ancient tradition of Italian Lace.
The Merletto Collection is also available in relief. All the decorations can be reproduced in relief with different chromatic combinations: white decoration on a coloured background, matching two-tone decoration in relief, contrasting two-tone decoration in relief and finally tone-on-tone decoration in relief.
The Merletto Touch Antique Collection integrates the typical Lace decoration with vestiges of ancient decorations, providing the opportunity to reproduce in relief some parts of the design itself.

NATURART
Design by Fabrizio Bianchetti
The Naturart collection is defined by a series of drawings that celebrate nature and its colours through the representation of wire elements and stains of colour, with the intention of transferring into modern living spaces the greatness of the emotions that nature can give.
The collection includes 6 designs that cannot be interpreted in further colour variations as each design is a celebration of the floral/plant type represented. A creative and playful note is provided through the option of inserting in the chosen design some animals typical of the proposed environments.
Naturart can be implemented with the most varied requests of customization, keeping the basic design unchanged and playing with colours that recall the subject represented.

IN THE MANNER OF…
Design by Fabrizio Bianchetti
The term “avant-garde” (literally, “advance guard”) designates the spirit of cultural innovation that looks towards a new destination for artistic research using unconventional means: the artist abandons conventions and finds her/his own expressive form, often standing in open contrast to past experiences of art.
In the manner of… Collection was borne of these premises, a collection that looks to the art of the early twentieth century as an inspirational muse for the elaboration of its own designs. In the manner of… consists of 9 designs reproducible in series or as large wall paintings in different colours. The painters Pablo Picasso, Georges Braque and Giorgio Morandi, as well as the architect, designer and painter Charles Rennie Mackintosh, were the source of inspiration for the designs of the collection.

IN THE MANNER OF… GIORGIO
The painting of Giorgio (Morandi) can be defined as unique and universally recognized; very well-known are his still lifes in which the objects represented (bottles, vases, coffee pots) are taken out of their functional context and analysed in their pure essence. One of his defining characteristics was his use of very few colours: this made his work poetic and surreal when defining the shapes of his objects in the infinite shades and hues of vibrations. For this reason, his painting is called “tonal painting”
IN THE MANNER OF… CHARLES
Charles (R. Mackintosh) is the leading exponent of the so-called “school of Glasgow”. Mackintosh developed his own style, characterised by the contrast between strong and exact angles and floral decorative motifs with delicate curvatures: an example is the rose motif, used together with some references to traditional Scottish architecture.
IN THE MANNER OF… GEORGES
Eliminating artifices such as chiaroscuro and perspective, Georges (Braque), reduced the palette to only solid colours, and exploited geometric volumes. Over time, Georges developed a fantastic alphabet made of a few lemmas (birds, the charioteer, the lovers, the earth, a fish, a vase, a mandolin, a skull, a bunch of grapes, etc.) always replicated and again perfected in search of the ultimate and definitive simplicity.
IN THE MANNER OF… PABLO
It is said that the first word spoken by little Pablo was not the traditional “mother”, but “piz!” from “ lápiz”, which means “pencil”. And before even starting to speak, Pablo (Picasso) drew.

INFINITE TOUCH
The entire Infinite collection, precisely because it is conceived as infinite and changeable, is now available in a relief version. All the decorations of the Infinite collection – structural variations, macro and micro-geometries – can be reproduced in relief in all colour variations. The Infinite Touch collection offers the possibility to print the decorations in different colour combinations: white decoration on a coloured background, black decoration on a coloured background, matching two-tone decoration in relief, contrasting two-tone decoration in relief and finally tone-on-tone decoration in relief.
MERLETTO TOUCH

All the decorations can be reproduced in relief with different chromatic combinations: white decoration on a coloured background, matching two-tone decoration in relief, contrasting two-tone decoration in relief and finally tone-on-tone decoration in relief.
MERLETTO TOUCH ANTIQUE
Tapestry is a form of textile art that lies halfway between craftsmanship and artistic representation. Technically, it is a fabric with a dominant texture made by hand on a frame and intended to cover the walls. Usually of wide format, it depicts large and extremely detailed drawings. The Italian term “arazzo” comes from the name of the French city of Arras, where the finest tapestries were produced in the Middle Ages.
The peak of Tapestry production was reached in the Renaissance, particularly in Flanders and France, in Arras, Paris, Aubusson, Tournai, Brussels, Audenarde, Grammont, Enghien and Beauvais. The royal Gobelins factory, founded in Paris in 1662, continues to produce today.
The Merletto Touch Antique collection integrates the typical lace decoration with vestiges of ancient decorations, providing the opportunity to reproduce in relief some parts of the design itself. The designs of the Merletto Touch Antique collection are therefore partially embossed with antiqued and worn effects.
