When we talk about material we refer to the type of support on which we print the chosen design. Not all materials are available for all designs, and the choice of one or the other will determine the size of rolls you receive. Generally, the materials on which we print do not exceed 30 inches in width or 10 yards in length.

We work with 2 types of material: classic and metallic.

Our classic material is a heavyweight vinyl paper. It is covered by a pellucid layer of PVC with a finishing matte touch, which makes them washable, very resistant and does not need base paper for their placement. is registered by the I.N.T.I. (National Industrial Technology Institute) as a fireproof NBR 9442/1986 Class A. You will receive rolls of 19.5” wide and the length will depend on the chosen design.

Our metallic material is offered in two versions, gold and silver. Unlike our non woven material -which has a greater texture- metallic materials are smooth to the touch. Both materials share the following characteristics: they do not have a vinyl layer, they have IAQ indoor air quality certification, ASTM E-84 Class A fire classification, FSC certification and they are manufactured with renewable electricity and carbon neutral emissions. You will receive rolls of 30” wide and the length will depend on the chosen design.

We use odorless water-based inks, certificated by UL ECOLOGO® AND UL GREENGUARD GOLD. All our printers meet the AgBB requirements.

We currently work with 3 types of products: scenic wallpapers, wallpapers (pattern) and big patterns.

Scenic wallpapers are designs made to measure, adapting to the space architecture. They allow customization, being able to adjust each illustration to the space that it is going to inhabit. They are sold by meter / square feet and are delivered in rolls with numbered panels. The width of each panel will depend on the space and the type of material you choose, while the length is subject to the place architecture. All of our scenic wallpaper orders are delivered with their own instruction sheet to facilitate the placement process.

The big patterns are versions of our pattern designs on a larger scale, they are repeated every 1 yard, both in height and width. Not all designs offer this possibility, the ones available will allow you to choose at the shop the size of the pattern between “Regular” or “Big”. They are made to measure for the space, and are sold by the square feet / meter. They are delivered in rolls with numbered panels and with their own indications for their placement.

Some of our designs offer color variables that are available and listed at the shop. For alternative color changes, the purchase must be made in person at our gallery located in Arenales 1362, CABA.. There, the service has a price of US$ 52 and includes 3 samples that must be withdrawn within 48 hours of being notified, and confirmed within the next 48 hours. You can select the tone from our exclusive color catalog. Always keeping in mind that the colors are referential.

The colors seen on digital devices are subject to the resolution and lighting of each screen and may differ from the final product. Although we try to maintain coherence between the two, we do not guarantee an exact reproduction of the same.

Accuracy while loading the measurements is very important as the product is specially produced for each project. The composition of colors that results in each version at the time of printing is unique: material batches change as well as the inks. That is why we cannot guaranteed that the color tone will be maintained from project to project, and may suffer small variations.

Each scenic wallpaper is made to the measure of the space in which it will be displayed. The design team edits each illustration according to the space architecture. In the case of landscapes, we give you the possibility of choosing the part you like the most and the elements you would like to stand out in your wallpaper. We can also erase the elements you don’t like. You can see available elements listed at each design shop.

Big patterns and wallpapers (patterns) can’t be personalized, except for their color options listed at each shop.

Our wallpapers can be placed over any smooth porous surface without texture. The adhesive must be able to penetrate through it in order to guarantee an effective adherence. For example, if you place them over mirrors, tiles or any non porous surface, the glue crystallizes and the wallpapers unstick. Your wall has to be free of dust and preferably with a coat of common paint or fixer. DOES NOT adhere to dust or rough surfaces.

Our classic material is made of heavy weight paper, so if the wall is smooth, it isn’t necessary to apply base paper.
