From the Dunes of Namibia to Your Walls: Guimar Urbina Home Launches the "Textures" Collection

True design is often a travelogue. For Guimar Urbina, the latest chapter began under the vast skies of South Africa and the shifting sands of Namibia. Inspired by the raw, unfiltered palettes and diverse tactile landscapes of the region, Guimar has translated her journey into the Textures Collection for Guimar Urbina Home.

Launching this February, and exclusively distributed by The Wallpaper Company, the Textures collection is more than a wallcovering; it is a curated sensory experience. Guimar, a staple of the Miami luxury design scene for over 15 years, has moved beyond simple patterns to explore the fundamental "hand" of textiles and earth.


A Symphony of Tactile Surfaces: The collection explores four distinct visual languages discovered during her travels:


  • Linen Look: Capturing the breezy, sophisticated ease of high-end African textiles.

  • Silk: A nod to the shimmering, light-refracting surfaces found in the region's natural minerals.

  • Plaster: Evoking the ancient, hand-applied finishes of regional architecture.

  • Geometric: Modern, structured patterns that reflect the vibrant cultural motifs of South African heritage.


Technical Excellence for Commercial & Residential Specifiers: While the inspiration is organic, the construction is high-tech. The Textures collection is engineered as an ultra-durable wallcovering on a nonwoven backing. This choice provides superior dimensional stability and ease of installation. Crucially for the trade, the collection carries the ASTM E84 - Class A fire rating, making it fully compliant for high-stakes commercial environments, luxury hospitality, and premium residential projects.
