0503, Topographies Wallpaper, 2017
Vinyl wallpaper is printed with high-resolution photographs of layers of torn white paper. To create the non-repeat pattern, the designers at Snarkitecture stacked reams of oversize cotton rag paper and tore each sheet by hand, exposing the fibers. The contours of the torn sheets resemble an excavated territory—a landscape discovered within the wall's surface. The design adds three-dimensionality and visual texture to a flat wall.
