The story behind - Dark Elegance
The Dark elegance collection is a luxurious collection rich of colors and atmospheric designs. Burgundy reds, different hues of dark blue, turquoise nuances and a pop of klein blue. A collection created to enhance the interior of international environments such as luxury hotels, bars and restaurants around the world.
Captivating colors has been the key for this collection and the result is completely absent of whites. Here you’ll find large scale organic patterns and gradient checks that are discrete yet making a great impact in any environment. These designs allow eclectic patterns and vintage geometrical shapes to blend in and create a contemporary yet timeless collection.

This collection is inspired by structure, depth and materiality. Floating organic patterns inspired by the grains of natural marble as well as the illusion of ore. The shine in convolutional metal has inspired us to go beyond traditional wallpaper patterns. Patterns first found in nature have been manipulated and mixed with vivid graphical shapes from the 60's and 70's. Flashbacks from the past and new influences from this year's Milan design week are merged into this collection.
Best of Milan Design week
We have taken inspiration from what we believe were the best of Milan design Week 2021, for example the Budri Official new Architecture collection. The installation ”I ́ll be your mirror” curated by Elisa Ossino Studio and Josephine Akvama Hoffmeyer. Where they decorated a Milan flat in rich colours with fluorescent and metallic accents. The duo says ”Elevating the concept of an experimental apartment experience, I ́ll be your mirror, aims to initiate a process of reflection within the minds and bodies of all visitors” As well as the CC Tapis showroom and its art pieces that go beyond the traditional mindset of carpets and works as a multi functional art works.
These swirling and organic art works created out of wool can be installed either on the floor or on the walls.

”Enhance the wallpapers by combining them with other statement pieces”
With this collection we truly want you to dare to combine patterns and scales. It is a collection rich of color and detail, this however doesn’t mean it can’t be combined with other statement pieces. Enhance the wallpapers by combining them with other statement pieces. This doesn’t necessarily mean you should go all in with the zebra stripes, but enhance the beige in the Eclectic Zebra in Teal with a beige carpet. Use contrast colors such as orange to enhance the blue tones or use copper to bring out the richness of the burgundy reds. Solid tonal colors and details such as curtains, large furniture, carpets or painted skirting can also be used if you want to go for a more sober look. To get that ultimate contemporary and luxurious feeling we suggest you add materials such as leather, velvet and a bit of roughness through metal details.
