Walls are “alive”, breathing and transforming themselves over time: smelling scents, capturing sounds, changing shape and colours, absorbing through their soft surfaces the signs of the time.

Thanks to Leather the absolute natural alive material which is the unquestioned protagonist elegance can be caressed, touched with full hands or barely touched, thus provoking a “skin deep” shiver.

Personalize space

Panels, just like any mosaic work’s tessels, can be combined in a fanciful way: they can have different sizes and they can be assembled matching various colour shades, natural or fashion, according to each one’s personal taste.

Exotic animals

Each tassel’s sizes start from a minimum of 2,3×2,3 cm up to 4,8×4,8 cm max., they can be natural, lamé gold effect, bronze, silver or printed as to create textures emulating exotic animals’s skin like crocodile, cayman, ostrich or with optical motifs.

Any kind of surface
The uniqueness of the employed material leather with all of its peculiar characteristics, represents the true, alive soul of the new collection proposed by Silven.

The particular softness and consistency of leather, its typical scent, its shape and colour every day changing, cover Skin with a strong sensory identity, unique and unmistakable: this way, the living spaces talk the language of nature, grow lively with their own life, change their shape and colour, trasform themselves together with the people who live there.

The support on which Skin is applied is, as usual, Fortflex fireproof compound in microporous rubber, very light, indestructible, anti-crash and flexible.

Skin can cover any kind of surfaces, not only flat, as well as the most articulated kinds of structures such as columns and arches.

Unique and unrepeatable

Skin represents an interior design decorative proposal extremely versatile, suited to any kind of ambiance: the collection covers with its sensory nature soft and envolving and, at the same time, bold and creative domestic areas, hotels and exclusive resorts, show rooms and fashionable clubs, yachts and luxury boats.
