Scrapwood Wallpaper came about through the coincidental realisation that vintage wallpaper cannot be found anywhere, even at a time when vintage stuff is all the rage. You can find vintage stuff everywhere - clothing, furniture, accessories - but ‘vintage’ wallcoverings are hard to find. ARTE decided to fill that gap with a high-quality product, preferably with a designer signature. Scrapwood Wallpaper was created by NLXL of the Netherlands working with Piet Hein Eek from Geldrop in Brabant.

Patchwork of planks
Piet Hein Eek is an industrial designer and was well-known for his scrap wood projects, long before these became trendy. He designs and makes furniture, lighting and other accessories and uses recycled wood and recycled materials in doing so. The best-known of these are his pieces of ‘plank furniture’ which resemble a patchwork of different planks. Sometimes they are more or less uniform in colour; at other times they have several colours and contrasts.

Piet Hein Eek was given ‘carte blanche’ to design eight different references, all made from scrap wood. These include some lighter wood pieces as well as dark brown ones and long slats, which are parallel, along with shorter, irregularly constructed slats, such as those on a parquet floor. They all have that typical weathered look which is so typical of his work.

Beach cabin of days gone by
You can still see traces of paint on some of the planks which now make them more ‘animated’. The tones are all very gentle and natural. Beige, sand, cream, rust, dark brown... and the only variation in colour is really when you see remnants of bleached yellow, turquoise and pistachio green. Planks that might have come from old beach cabins, for all we know. Finally, there is also one variety in which planks have been inserted in two directions to create an irregular mosaic.

Scrapwood Wallpaper really reflects Piet Hein Eek’s philosophy. ‘If you make something with honest and natural materials that are readily available, then it doesn’t lose value and will keep its beautiful appearance for several years.

Eye for detail
The great thing about this collection is the artist’s attention to detail. Sometimes you see cracks in the wood or holes where nails once were. It couldn’t be any more authentic short of attaching real slats to the wall! You can also get really creative with it - for example, there’s nothing to stop you from cutting a plank from the paper and pasting it across your decorated wall.

The effects this creates are amazing!
Scrapwood Wallpaper is non-woven wallpaper that is very easy to install. And it’s washable. This collection has eight references and is 9m long and 49cm wide. The collections have no real pattern and there are no repetitions which means you don’t waste any of the paper. The rolls are of course identical.
