WALLCOVERINGS 05 & AZURI VELVETS
Anthology presents Vol 05 of its stunning compendium of innovative wallcoverings complemented
by Azuri Velvets.
Launched in Spring 2014, Anthology quickly established a reputation as ‘new thinking for walls’.
With its market-leading style, derived from a broad spectrum of European influences, Anthology’s
fresh and creative finishes and textures bring definition and style to any contemporary interior.
Anthology 05 is a ground-breaking range of papers, inspired by pleats, folding, form and structure.
Targeted at the wider international market, the latest collection remains true to the brand’s core
values, but introduces a richer palette of on-trend colors.
One of the Anthology Studio’s designers, Louise Draper, explains how the collection evolved:
“Influenced by origami, I experimented with paper manipulation, tucking, gathering, crushing and
crimping to create this beautifully tactile and versatile collection of wallpapers that has a distinctly
cosmopolitan, global appeal.”
The nine wallcoverings over 42 colorways are wide-width (68.8cm) and printed on a mix of vinyl
and paste-the-wall bases, using a variety of techniques, embosses and embellishments.
Anthology 05 will be accompanied by Azuri, a sumptuous yet practical range of velvets, which
comes in eight mouthwatering shades. Extremely durable, Azuri Velvets are suitable for contract
and domestic drapes and upholstery (Martindale rub test 50K+). Powerful and eye-catching, they
pack a real punch in their own right, as well as working in harmony with the other Anthology fabrics.
Anthology Studio designer, Linda Thacker, expands: “The Anthology Compendium was designed
with longevity and usability in mind: the intention was always to add to the existing books,
With Anthology 05 and Azuri we have tried to keep our fingers on the fashion pulse, while also
remaining true to the Anthology ethos and maintaining enduring appeal.”
A broad spectrum of colors has been used to emphasise the sophistication and verstatility of the
designs: subtle hints of oyster, shell and vanilla are complemented by saturated, vibrant tones of
blood orange, citrus, peacock and kingfisher, which give Anthology 05 a more international feel
and appeal. These shades are mixed with accents of metallics, including gold, silver, rose gold and
copper, for added impact.
Both collections will be available from a network of stockists nationally and internationally.Samples are available on the website: stylelibrary.com/anthology

THE WALLCOVERINGS
Coral
A very-usable, small-scale, delicate motif on paste-the-wall paper, which has
been embellished with beads to give extra dimension enhancing the sparkle
and glamour. Originally launched in Anthology 01, the versatile and popular
Coral has been updated with four new colorways.
Elements
This organic, elemental motif, printed on contract specification paste the wall
The design was created by layering, then crushing and creasing tissue paper.
A misty, ethereal undertone is achieved by the movement and twists of color
which softly graduate in a horizontal ombré. A free-match wallcovering,
Available in six colorways.
Ethereal
A striking and pleasingly balanced stripe, this design is inspired by Klecksography,
which is the art of making images from folded paper and inkblots. The use
of this technique has created abstract motifs in loosely structured rhythmic
blocks. Ethereal is printed on paper-backed vinyl, highlighted with a refined
silk emboss, which enhances the substrate for added impact. Available in five
colorways.
Hibiki
This wallcovering has been inspired by Anthology’s Hibiki corded velvet, with
specification paste the wall vinyl and embellished with a horizontal emboss to
accordion pleating, the scale of which makes it a versatile semi-plain vinyl with
real impact. Available in five colorways.
Illusion
The aptly-named design is printed on paper-backed vinyl, which is dappled with
inspired by twisting and knotting tissue, which results in an angled, crumpled
and textural look. Available in four colorways.
Elements is a powerful statement design that carries color really effectively.

THE WALLCOVERINGS
Modulate
This dramatic, 3-D wallcovering was inspired by a high fashion garment - the
origami structure and form of which was captured by photography to create
a dynamic pattern once repeated and graduated across the width of the
scale zig-zag motif is printed on paper-backed vinyl with a new ‘brushed metal’
to the collection complementing the more organic designs with its show-
stopping appearance. Available in three colorways.
Plica
A vertical design evoking crushed paper, printed on a contract specification
paste the wall paper and enhanced with an additional sparkle layer and new,
symbiotic ‘tissue emboss’. The ethereal appearance is due to delicate dusting
of gold, copper and pure silver flake glitter, a novel technique unique to
Anthology. Plica sits harmoniously alongside the new velvet collection, Azuri.
Available in four colorways.
Seri
with the appearance of hessian. Seri is existing design: its grass-cloth motif
has been reintroduced and re-colored to reflect a more diverse, vibrant and
European colour palette. Available in five colorways.
Shatter
Appropriately-named, Shatter has been inspired by crackle-glass and a
structural element of the design provides form and dimension, while the
addition of beading alludes to a glassy, reflective surface combined with the
depth and opulence of flock depending on how the design is lit. Available in five
colorways.
