Where Walls
Become the Design
Belgian luxury wallcoverings crafted from natural silk, organic fibres and linen — the defining material choice for sophisticated interiors on the Costa del Sol.
About Arte International
Belgium's Most Passionate Wallcovering House
Founded in Belgium in 1981, Arte International has spent over four decades setting the standard for what luxury wallcoverings can be. As a family business, Arte combines deep craftsmanship tradition with an in-house design studio that pushes material boundaries every season.
Where most wallcovering brands print patterns onto paper, Arte works with real silk, hand-processed natural fibres, bark from the mulberry tree, and raffia palm — transforming walls into living, textured surfaces that paint simply cannot replicate.
The result is a collection of over 100 wallcoverings used by leading architects and interior designers across hotels, private residences, and commercial spaces worldwide.
✔ Belgian family business — craftsmanship since 1981
✔ In-house design studio, new collections every season
✔ Real silk, natural fibres, bark and linen materials
✔ Used in 5-star hotels, luxury residences, flagship stores
✔ Full professional support — samples, technical specs, installation guidance

Three Collections. Three Distinct Worlds.
These three Arte International collections are installed and on display at Viluz Wellbeing Resort in Mijas — so you and your clients can see and feel the material before you specify it. Visit Olyra at Viluz to experience them in a real interior context.
Flamant Honoré
Arte × Flamant · Linen-Texture Wallcovering
A collaboration between Arte International and the renowned Belgian lifestyle brand Flamant, Honoré captures the quiet sophistication of linen in its purest form. Applied with chalk ink in an ultra-matte, extra-matt finish, each design carries the subtle irregularity of real woven fabric.
Three designs — Lin, Lin Normandie and Terre de Lin — each offer 128 colourways ranging from chalky whites and warm greiges to deep blues and earthy tones. Flamant Honoré works in bedrooms, living rooms, studies and any space where the goal is refined calm.
✔ 128 colourways across three designs
✔ Ultra-matte chalk ink finish — no glare in Mediterranean light
✔ Linen-inspired texture — paint-like depth, wallcovering presence
✔ Designs: Lin · Lin Normandie · Terre de Lin
Melaky
Natural Wallcovering · Mulberry Bark & Raffia Palm
Melaky is named after a region of Madagascar where dry savannah meets dense mangrove forest — and the collection embodies that raw, organic landscape. Bark from the mulberry tree and fibres from the raffia palm are processed using artisanal hand techniques, producing wallcoverings with visible texture and tactile depth unlike any printed material.
Five designs — Alba, Rubra, Farini, Tana and Mandrava — each carry the warm natural hues of Madagascar: earthy ochres, sandy neutrals, warm browns. Equally at home in a contemporary villa or a traditional Andalusian interior.
✔ Handcrafted from real mulberry bark and raffia fibre
✔ Organic texture — every panel is uniquely varied
✔ Warm natural hues: ochre, sand, brown, warm neutral
✔ Designs: Alba · Rubra · Farini · Tana · Mandrava
Wild Silk
Natural Wallcovering · Real Silk
Wild Silk is exactly what it says: wallcovering made from real silk thread, woven and mounted to create walls with a naturally luminous surface that shifts with the light throughout the day. Three distinct silk types — Katia Silk, Pure Silk and Ghicha Silk — each behave differently, from robust weave to delicate finesse.
In Mediterranean light, Wild Silk performs beautifully. Morning sun creates warmth; afternoon shadow reveals the depth of the weave. For dining rooms, master suites, hospitality lobbies and any space where material quality is the statement, Wild Silk is unmatched.
✔ Made from real silk — not printed, not synthetic
✔ Three silk types: Katia · Pure Silk · Ghicha
✔ Subtle luminous sheen that shifts with natural light
✔ The ultimate luxury wall surface for premium interiors
Why Wallcoverings · Costa del Sol
The Material Choice That Changes a Room
On the Costa del Sol, architecture is open, light is strong, and the expectation of luxury is high. In this environment, paint falls flat — literally. Natural wallcoverings add the dimension, warmth and tactile presence that every premium interior needs.
Texture in Strong Mediterranean Light
Costa del Sol light is intense and directional. Natural fibre and silk wallcoverings catch and diffuse that light, creating depth and softness that flat walls never achieve.
Warmth Without Colour
Linen, bark and silk bring tactile warmth to cool white interiors — making spaces feel considered and layered without adding visual weight.
The Premium Finish Clients Expect
In luxury properties on the Costa del Sol, wallcovering is the detail that signals craftsmanship. It's what distinguishes a designed interior from a decorated one.
The Definitive Interior Design Trend
Natural wallcoverings are the fastest-growing category in luxury interior design globally. Architects and developers who specify them now are ahead of what clients will be asking for tomorrow.
Acoustic Comfort
Silk and natural fibre wallcoverings absorb sound rather than reflecting it — an overlooked benefit in hard-surfaced Mediterranean villas and hotel suites.
One Specification, Complete Impact
A single wallcovering choice can anchor a room's entire material palette — reducing decisions for clients while delivering a cohesive, high-end result.
The Full Arte International Range
Beyond the Three Collections at Viluz
Arte International produces over 100 wallcovering collections. The three shown at Viluz are Olyra's curated selection — but as exclusive representative in Spain, Olyra can source any Arte collection, including bespoke commissions, for your project. Below is an overview of the breadth of what Arte makes.
Naturals 🌿
Wallcoverings made from real organic materials — bark, raffia, sisal, jute and plant fibres. Tactile, sustainable, and visually unique. Melaky belongs to this category.
Textile & Silk 🧵
Woven fabric wallcoverings including real silk, linen and cotton. Wild Silk is the flagship, but the range includes dozens of textile options across material and weight.
Metallics 🪨
Wallcoverings with metallic finishes — brushed gold, aged silver, oxidised copper. For feature walls in lobbies, hospitality spaces and dramatic residential interiors.
Décors & Panoramiques 🖼
Large-format mural wallcoverings and panoramic scenes — botanical, architectural and abstract. A single panel can transform an entire room or corridor.
Non-Woven & Vinyl 🎨
High-performance technical wallcoverings for commercial and contract projects — hospitality, healthcare, retail — with Arte's design quality in durable formats.
Bespoke Commissions ✏️
Arte's contract division develops custom wallcoverings — specific colourways, scales and materials — for landmark projects. Olyra manages the brief and coordinates with Arte directly.

Interior Design Trends 2024–2026
Natural Wallcoverings: The Material Moment
Every leading interior design publication — from Architectural Digest to Elle Décor — is tracking the same shift: clients are moving away from plain painted walls and towards materials with texture, depth and story.
Arte International has been at the centre of this trend for decades. Their natural fibre and silk collections appear in the world's most published hotels, private residences and commercial spaces — from Parisian apartments to Malibu beach houses to Marbella villas.
For architects and interior designers on the Costa del Sol, specifying Arte wallcoverings is both a design statement and a commercial one: it signals a level of material literacy that resonates with the discerning clients who buy and develop luxury property here.
✔ The dominant trend in luxury residential interiors globally
✔ Featured in Architectural Digest, Elle Décor, Wallpaper*
✔ Specified by top architecture and design studios worldwide
✔ Adds immediate perceived value to any room
✔ Available in Spain exclusively through Olyra
