Cadenza Fiammata

In the Cadenza Fiammata wallpaper I wanted to fix the precise gesture of worked stone: parallel grooves, diamond-cut, crossing a plane of flamed granite at regular intervals, from one end of the surface to the other.

I belong to the family of materials, and my language is that of flamed granite: the rough matt surface, burnt by the flame that toasted its feldspar, alternates with the smooth walls of each channel, a little glossier, cut by the diamond disc to give grip and safety. There is no focal point: my composition is pure rhythm, a horizontal cadence repeating without interruption, like an architectural drawing read at close range.

In the anthracite grey, in the deep graphite black, among the silvery glints of quartz and mica, whoever draws near finds the crystalline grain of the stone, the small chips along the edges of the grooves, the micro-relief left by the torch. It is a surface that speaks of manual work, of time and of friction, returned here as a frontal photograph, evenly lit, faithful to the real material.

I choose this Cadenza Fiammata wallpaper for those who want a wall that does not decorate but builds space: a single continuous field, made for refined interiors of every kind, from the home to the workplace to the hotel, where a large free surface is all the design needs to breathe. At WallZad a texture like this is translated into print with the care of those who know the stone before the image.
