GLAMORA RICAMI Relief quartz sand and nonwoven wallpaper

RICAMI is a relief quartz sand and nonwoven wallpaper.‎ A motif with a romantic charm that emerges delicate and imperceptible, dense with material and memory, transforming the surface into a visual and tactile tale.‎ Inspired by manual weaving and the layering of time, RICAMI evokes the authentic and imperfect weave of handcrafted textiles, where small knots of yarn emerge to create patterns of natural and abstract inspiration.‎ The pattern takes shape through a harmonious dialogue between reliefs and engravings, reminiscent of ancient lace and fine textile work, reinterpreted with a contemporary language.‎ Composition: Quartz sand 70%, Nonwoven fabric 20%, Water-based components 10% Reaction to fire: B-s1, d0 (UNI EN 13501-1) With Tramae Collection, Glamora explores new material dimensions, blending aesthetics, innovation, and functionality.‎ The collection’s wallcoverings, crafted from GlamOrigin, a pure and tactile material, stand out for their three-dimensional, sandy texture, which lends surfaces remarkable expressive depth.‎ The collection draws inspiration from the works of Italian artist Costantino Nivola (1911–1988), particularly his pioneering Sand Casting technique.‎ This process involved pouring plaster or concrete onto a sand surface that had been previously sculpted in negative, resulting in reliefs with a pleasantly irregular texture.‎ Sand Casting made Nivola’s work unique and cemented his reputation as a "sculptor for architecture", leading to collaborations with the great masters of Modernism on iconic architectural projects, including the Olivetti showroom in New York.‎ His sculptural approach is now reinterpreted by Glamora in a contemporary way, giving rise to a wallcovering that evokes the aesthetic of handcrafted surface treatments.‎ Such a refined and versatile innovation in the world of surfaces is designed to adapt to projects of all scales, from residential interiors to public spaces in search of a sophisticated yet understated design.‎ The result is a timeless decorative solution, bringing dynamism and character to interiors while offering designers new creative possibilities.‎ GlamOrigin is a matt textured, three-dimensional wallcovering featuring engravings and reliefs that evoke the elegance of sculpted plaster or artisan-moulded concrete.‎ Its composition, created through the layering of quartz powder on a non-woven fabric backing, enhances the depth of the surface with a refined interplay of light and shadow.‎ Distinctive features, such as the surface’s organic irregularities and subtle tonal variations, stem from the use of natural raw materials.‎ These intrinsic elements highlight its uniqueness and elevate its aesthetic value, bestowing it with an authentic and expressive character.‎ Further info from manufacturer on RICAMI GLAMORA
