Constructeur Florence CF100

In the magical atmosphere of the old part of Florence, an extraordinary mural floats, transporting us to the heart of this charming scenery. The facades of the buildings, in shades of old brick and rubble, come together like a story of the history and artistry of Italian architecture. The stone walls seem to be permeated with the scent of bygone centuries, in which the fates of the inhabitants and the sounds of street musicians intertwined. Their texture is like a palimpsest, on which time has inscribed many tales. Every detail - arches, cornices, intricate sculptures - exudes the harmony and pride of the ancient craftsmen. Beautiful, carefully carved wooden shutters unfold in the windows, tilting their wings towards the city. Their warm color contrasts wonderfully with the cool shades of the stone. The details on the shutters harken back to ancient arts and crafts, once a proud heritage of this place. Pieces of vegetation adorn the ledges and surround the windows, as if to remind us of the life that always finds a way to survive in this unique neighborhood. This mural brings the city's history to life, reminding us of its former glory and the secrets hidden in its narrow alleys. It's a tale of the hands that shaped these stone facades, and the eyes that gazed through these beautiful shutters.

Assembly instructions

All REVE graphics are prepared for standard flush mounting, allowing for a seamless and elegant surface without visible joints.

If, however, there is a need to mount on a tab (e.g. due to technical requirements or the interior's specificity), it is also possible - just inform us at the ordering stage so that the graphics can be prepared accordingly.

More detailed information regarding the preparation of the substrate and the assembly itself can be found in the REVE assembly instructions.

Substrate preparation

Wall preparation

Wallpaper installation

Before installing the REVE graphics, it is crucial to properly prepare the surface. The wall must be clean, dry, smooth, and slightly absorbent, as any imperfections may be visible and further emphasized under the graphic. It is necessary to prime the wall twice with a deeply penetrating preparation (e.g. Scala Ultraprimer 08), allowing at least 24 hours between coats. In the case of previously painted walls, they should be thoroughly washed, degreased, sanded (e.g. with sandpaper), and then primed. Walls without a paint coating, such as plasterboard, plaster, render, or concrete, also require careful priming. If there are old wallpapers on the wall, they should be completely removed, any irregularities leveled, and primed again. Wallpapering should always be the final stage of finishing work.

When preparing the wall for installation, all obstacles that may hinder work, such as hooks, pins, moldings, or sockets, should be removed. Skirting boards, door frames, and window frames should be sealed with acrylic in advance and thoroughly cleaned, as sealing with acrylic after sticking the graphic may lead to its damage. Sockets and switches should be dismantled and left without frames, and all holes for lamps or pictures should be prepared before starting the installation. Furniture should be moved away from the wall by at least one meter. For hidden doors, it is recommended to use a special adhesive suitable for non-absorbent surfaces. The wall must be prepared according to the planned installation method - either butt joint or overlap.

Before mounting the graphics, it should be unfolded on a flat surface and left for a minimum of 24 hours to straighten. The adhesive is applied directly to the wall, the width of one strip, preferably using a roller. The first strip is mounted vertically, smoothing it from the center outwards with a spatula or roller, which helps to remove air bubbles and excess glue. Each strip has a surplus of about 10 cm at the top and bottom, allowing for precise alignment. Subsequent strips are mounted according to the chosen method: either butt joint, accurately matching the edges without overlapping, or overlap joint, by placing the edges on top of each other, then cutting both layers simultaneously with a knife, removing excess and pressing down, creating a "zipper effect." Excess wallpaper at the ceiling and floor should be cut off with a sharp knife. After completing the installation, avoid drafts, sudden temperature changes, and do not ventilate the room for at least 24 hours. The wallpaper should dry slowly, in stable conditions, to achieve the best visual effect and durability.
