Decorative plates made of enameled copper, a decorative technique that subjects a copper object to very high temperatures, ensuring striking coloration and brilliance. The technique was made great by some Italian masters, such as Paolo de Poli, a craftsman active in Padua in the second half of the 20th century. Because of this, and the allusion to the celestial bodies in the decoration, the name recalls the Paduan Specola. Made in collaboration with Giorgia Zanellato and Daniele Bortotto.

Italian double-width printed fabrics renewing the world of wallcoverings through innovation and creativity
KOHRO stands as a primary source of inspiration for interior designers, architects, furniture showrooms, and all those seeking exquisite Made in Italy fabrics. Specializing in wallcovering and textile wall solutions for residential and contract projects, the KOHRO fabric collections are deeply rooted in the rich Italian cultural heritage, harmoniously blending nature, art, design, craftsmanship, technology, and top-tier service.
KOHRO wallcovering collections open the eyes on a captivating and elegant world. The innovative fabrics for wallcoverings, crafted in double width for easy installation through simple hanging, transform spaces. They create panoramic vistas of extraordinary variety, extending up to 40 meters in development, with designs suitable for every environment thanks to diverse stylistic inspirations.
The exceptional polychromy of KOHRO designs comes to life in the atelier of Casnigo, in the province of Bergamo. Professional artists and a young team from the best Italian Academies of Fine Arts hand-paint subjects on full-size paper, utilizing various painting techniques such as grisaille, tempera, stamps, pantograph, stencil, and trompe l'oeil. Once the artwork is complete, the subject is digitalized and offered in diverse color variations.
The KOHRO fabric wallcovering collection merges thus the European artistic and textile tradition of papier peint and tapestry with contemporary technology and modern graphic art. The decorative motifs are created with advanced digital technology on premium textile bases in cotton, linen, silk, or precious blends. Installation through simple hanging creates an elegant continuum, while ensuring breathability and sound absorption.
