Lane Wallcovering Collection: A Unique Blend of Craftsmanship and Innovation

Unveiling the Beauty of Handloom Weaving

With a deep appreciation for the art of hand weaving, Zámori's Lane Wallcovering Collection showcases the beauty of yarns transformed into intriguing graphics. The collection is divided into two parts: the Digital Pattern Designs Collection and the Unique Handcrafted Artisan Wallcoverings.

The Digital Pattern Designs Collection is a digital adaptation of Zámori's manual drawings and graphic prints. The patterns, with their consciously disjointed layout and extreme enlargements, reflect the mood of handloom weaving. These patterns can be applied vertically or horizontally, allowing for endless possibilities in design.

On the other hand, the Unique Handcrafted Artisan Wallcoverings are a testament to Zámori's dedication to craftsmanship. Made of non-woven textile and layers of delicate natural threads, these wallcoverings are created using a collage technique and flour-paste as adhesive. The result is a structured surface that allows for spatial playfulness, reminiscent of the intricate weaving process.

Each piece in the Lane Wallcovering Collection is treated with fire retardant liquid to comply with fire-safety standards, ensuring both beauty and safety in any space.

Zámori's attention to detail and commitment to quality is evident in the technical specifications of the collection. The digital pattern units have a resolution of 300 pixels per inch, ensuring crisp and clear designs. The handcrafted wallcoverings, although initially made in a standard size of 600mm x 0.1mm x 2000mm, can be tailored to individual needs while keeping ease of installation in mind.

The Lane Wallcovering Collection is not just about aesthetics; it is also about interaction and functionality. The digital patterns offer a play and experiment with patterns, allowing for a unique visual experience. The lighter shades can be used to fill an entire space, while the darker ones can highlight specific wall sections. These wallcoverings are not limited to residential spaces; they can also be used in hotels, restaurants, or bars to create a captivating atmosphere.

While the digital patterns offer versatility, the handcrafted artisan wallcoverings require site-specific planning. Zámori works closely with clients to recommend variations, materials, and qualities to create a final appearance that is tailored to individual orders.

The Lane Wallcovering Collection was brought to life in Budapest, where Zámori completed her Master's degree project at the Budapest Metropolitan University. Since its completion in 2016, the collection has been exhibited in several galleries, captivating audiences with its unique blend of craftsmanship and innovation.

Zámori's design journey was not without its challenges. The biggest challenge was to design patterns that maintained their unique character while also meeting current trends and market demands. The selection process for the final variations was also a task in itself, with 40 variations chosen out of 100 samples. The production of the handcrafted artisan wallcoverings presented its own set of challenges, requiring careful planning and construction to ensure the quality of each individual wallpaper.

The Lane Wallcovering Collection has received recognition for its outstanding design. It was awarded the Bronze A' Design Award in the Textile, Fabric, Textures, Patterns, and Cloth Design category in 2017. This prestigious award celebrates designs that demonstrate creativity, resourcefulness, and technical excellence, contributing to improvements in quality of life.
