Blasone Tropicale

The Blasone Tropicale wallpaper comes from a gesture of symmetry as old as the coat of arms: two creatures facing each other, held in perfect balance. It belongs to the great family of fauna, the animal kingdom reinterpreted as a decorative emblem, where the design does not narrate but consecrates.

At the centre of the composition a blue-and-yellow macaw in strict profile spreads its long tapered tail, its face striped with fine barring; beside it a ramphastos toucan tilts its keeled bill in a mirroring arc. The two birds, repeated as mirror images about a vertical axis, form a single medallion resting among the broad fan-shaped fronds of the Mauritia flexuosa palm. The ground is a warm ivory, bodies and leaves stand out in almost black silhouette, while a touch of terracotta lights the parrot's tail and the toucan's bill, and a back in muted sage rests among the fronds.

From a distance it is a blazon read at a single glance; close up one discovers the parallel bars of the feathers, the beaded edges of the bill, the combed veining of every leaf. It is in this double distance — that of the room and that of the eye drawing near — that WallZad places its craft, composing every panel so that the line stays continuous and clean, with neither shadow nor shading, ready to dress the walls of homes, offices and welcoming spaces with the same silent pride as a heraldic sign.
