The outstanding blend of styles and cultures that make up Spanish artistic history has inspired Lorenzo Castillo's latest wallpaper collection for Gaston Y Daniela.
Called Hispania, the highlights of the collection come from the
Spanish Golden Age, such as Vetusta design, emulating the tortoise
shell combined with the shimmering gold, widely used on furniture
during those times, and also the point de Hungrie design - Jano -
coming from European silk velvets of that period.
The collection continues its journey through Oriental influences
of the 18th Century, the reigns of Kings Charles III and Charles
IV.
It concludes with 19th Century influences, such as basic stripes
of the Empire-style tent, Fuencisla design, complemented with
Baroque botanical motifs that are reminiscent of carved decorative
elements used during the period of the Queen Regent of Spain.
An eyecatching feature are the geometrics, inspired in the 1960s
and 70s with an outline of Turkish or Arabic origin. Contrasting
colours are very contemporary, combined with gold and silver as in
Xabi and Tio Juan designs.
