BARCELONA WALLPAPER
A network of square blocks cut diagonally by large avenues and an eccentric, crazy building that is the symbol of the city you are about to visit: the sagrada familia basilica
The Be Grateful Wall Paper collection is a journey through different landscapes and cultures, beginning in neighbouring Spain, with a texture inspired by Barcelona's Eixample district.
Three colour variants ranging from neutral tones enriched with metallic details, to the multi-coloured digital print version. A network of square blocks cut diagonally by large avenues and an eccentric, crazy building that is the symbol of the city you are about to visit: the Sagrada Familia basilica.
You are looking at the Eixample, a neighbourhood unique in the world in terms of structure, tourist attractions, shopping and much more... a district that, in itself, is worth the trip to Barcelona! The Eixample (or Ensanche in Spanish, which literally means 'extension'), is the central, largest and most-populous area of the Catalan capital, and is divided in turn into 6 districts.
The history of this district is compelling: it was built in the mid-19th century by the visionary architect Ildefons Cerdá, who decided that the centre of Barna (Barcelona), which was expanding at the time, should be a welcoming and egalitarian place, where everyone had the same space to live and where light was a priority.
The result is a network of neat streets lined with low, elegant buildings, where international boutiques and clubs, hotels with beautiful terraces, glamorous restaurants and museums all to discover, have found their natural homes.

BACKGROUND PREPARATION
- (Referred to environmental conditions T=25° C, RH=60%)
- The surface must be clean and dry, firm and compact, free of dust and humidity-salt stains.
- Completely remove any thick coats of lime or tempera paints.
- Remove any efflorescence and flaking parts of old paintwork by brushing or washing.
- Completely remove old wallpaper.
- If mould/mildew is present, treat the surface with appropriate products.
- Remove any deposits of dust and grime by brushing.
- Restore flatness, level out any irregularities in the substrate and treat all holes, cracks and hollows with suitable products.
- If necessary, rebuild or consolidate the substrate with specific products.
- On a completely dry and clean surface, use a brush to apply a layer of Decofix (micronized wall fixative), suitably diluted according to the type of background.
RECOMMENDATIONS
- Ambient and surface conditions:
- Ambient temperature : 10°C - 25°C
- Ambient relative humidity : < 60%
- Background temperature : 10°C - 25°C
- Background humidity : < 5%.
- Do not apply under direct sunlight or onto overheated surfaces (even if they are already in the shade).
- Best visual results are obtained by using all rolls from the same production batch. Small differences may be noticed when using different production batches.
- For the correct use of the above materials, and for dilution and laying, please carefully read the technical data sheet. The correct use of equipment and personal protective equipment (PPE) is recommended during all phases of background and product preparation and application
WALLPAPER LAYING
- Check that the paper rolls are not damaged and that the designs and colourings are correct.
- Remove the plates of the electrical switches and sockets.
- Remove the skirting board and coping (frame-covers) of doors and windows.
- Draw, in the blind corner (behind the door), reference marks on the wall. Using a tape measure, draw a smaller width (3-5 cm) of the sheet on the wall, making several marks starting from the top downwards. Lower the plumb-line and make marks on the wall. Measure the height of the wall. Check for pattern repetition, then cut the lengths according to wall height, leaving an excess of 5-8 cm, at the top and bottom, for trimming.
- Use roller to evenly apply WallPaper Paste, unthinned, to a portion of the surface equal in width to the sheet of WallPaper.
- Use a brush to apply the adhesive to bond the WallPaper Paste, working from the centre towards the outside of the sheet. Make sure the adhesive is well distributed around the edges, but avoid it coming into contact with the side of the paper that has the pattern. In they accidentally come into contact, use a damp sponge to clean and remove the adhesive immediately, then dry with a white cotton cloth.
- Lay the sheet onto the surface to cover, positioning it correctly according to the marks and drawing. Use a plastic wallpaper spatula to pass over the paper again to release any trapped air. Promptly remove any spills/excess of adhesive! Continue until the surface to cover is completed.
- Drying time: about 24 hours depending on the type of substrate, its absorption rate, and environmental conditions.
