All showstoppers, the collection consists of eight unique prints, Monogram, Elliptic, Weave, Brick, Net, Snake, Folding, and Backgammon. With custom design options available, you can craft your dream scheme exactly to your specifications.Photo: Maria Teresa FurnariMonogram is a distinctive pattern, combining twin graphic Ls to form a block, repeated over a regular rectangle. Reminiscent of iconic logos from historic fashion houses, this print will add a linear element sure to heighten any interior.Elliptic is a nod to the Op Art movement of the 1960s, where bold shapes coalesce to trick the eye. Pairing like tones together further enhances the illusion, making the shapes become shadows and the curves have a sense of life.Photo: Maria Teresa FurnariPhoto: Maria Teresa FurnariPhoto: Beppe BrancatoWeave is inspired by the traditions of hand weaving, involving regular blocks of intersecting color. Blending heritage and modernity, these colorful motifs add a sense of whimsy to the space, expressing a sense of fun within a restrained color palette.Brick is defined by bold color choices and a sense of solidity. The contrasting palette features turquoise and burgundy on one side, and orange and midnight blue on the other, amplifying the unique personality of the design. These blocks fit neatly into one another, the strongest bonds of mortise and tenon adding to the strength of the motifs.Photo: Beppe BrancatoPhoto: Beppe BrancatoNet employs more optical tricks to inscribe depth. The pleasing regularity of the horizontal and vertical forms inspire quiet within the mind. Net is available in two variants that mix four colors: peach, beige, green, and burgundy and brown, light blue, beige, and black.Snake is a bold pattern, bands of stylized color slithering across the plane. With colors highly reminiscent of the natural world, yet taken up a notch, these brilliant hues will bring a sense of the wilderness inside.Photo: Beppe BrancatoPhoto: Beppe BrancatoPhoto: Beppe BrancatoPhoto: Beppe BrancatoPhoto: Beppe BrancatoPhoto: Beppe BrancatoInspired by Escher, Folding explores the gap between possible and impossible shapes. Crossing the boundaries of two dimensions, this pattern adds a sense of structure and order within the chaos of life.Backgammon is the final pattern, inspired by the game beloved for eons. A 1970s dreamscape, the rich mustard yellow and deep brown adds to a sense of yesteryear, yet with modern interpretations that ground us within the present.Photo: Beppe BrancatoTekla Everina Severin is a designer that extends the boundaries of space design with this exhibit.
