Paris welcomes us today, January 14, 2026, for the 10th edition of Paris Déco Off. In the heart of the Rive Gauche, at 4 Rue Visconti, Tessitura Bevilacqua unveils far more than a showroom: an immersive, sensory experience designed to express how five centuries of Venetian savoir-faire can generate new visions of contemporary luxury.
Within the historic spaces of Atelier Visconti, we reveal to industry professionals an absolute first for the manufactory: our inaugural collection of luxury textile wall coverings, wallpapers born from the encounter between our historic archive and the most noble fibers. Alongside this offering, we present new color interpretations of our iconic velvets, in a continuous dialogue between heritage and innovation. In this way, Bevilacqua brings tradition into the present, shaping it into a living and contemporary language.
From Looms to Walls: Bevilacqua Textile Wall Coverings
Since 1499, our looms have woven not only silk, but stories of doges, Venetian palaces, and an art that has crossed centuries. Today, that iconographic heritage takes on a new and unexpected form with Bevilacqua’s first collection of luxury wallpapers, developed from an archive preserving more than 3,500 historic designs.
For us, luxury is an experience that engages all the senses. The new wall coverings are textile surfaces where materiality takes center stage: pure silk, linen, natural raffia, and lurex, capable of capturing light in shimmering, profound reflections. Entirely made in Italy, using eco-friendly inks, fire-retardant and light-resistant, these wallpapers unite beauty with durability. From medieval symbolism to Renaissance elegance, from Baroque opulence to the allure of Art Deco, each wall covering is conceived as a work of art to be lived with every day.
Silk Velvets: New Colorways for Historic Motifs
Alongside the wall coverings, we introduce new colorways that reinterpret some of our most representative velvets. Among the multicolored velvets, Giardino Antico and Fresie are presented in an unprecedented green-gold hue. The sumptuous ornamental motif of Giardino Antico, originally from the 18th century, engages in a dialogue with a tone that blends the depth of earth with the luminosity of precious metal, creating reflections that shift between warm and cool as the light changes. In Fresie, the green-gold lends the Liberty-inspired design a profound richness, which the soft, vibrant velvet translates into continuous variations of light.
Another significant chromatic innovation is petroleum blue, introduced for the Walls and Glicine velvets. This shade evokes the depth of ocean abysses and the refinement of the rarest gemstones: its blue-green nuances, sometimes intense, sometimes iridescent, enhance Art Deco and Art Nouveau designs with a contemporary, mysterious elegance, ideal for interiors seeking character without ostentation.
New Heddle and Animalier Velvets: Bold and Refined
Among the heddle silk velvets, we present a selection in fuchsia, a vibrant color with a strong expressive presence. The Lune velvet fully expresses the plasticity of Art Deco through rhythmic, harmonious weaves. The new Fiammato velvet, also available in black and ivory, stands out for its geometric chevron pattern, enriched by irregular striations that lend the surface a bold, expressive character. Taccheggiato, in silk and cotton, features a discontinuous texture with vintage allure, while Arabesco, a geometric velvet also available in ivory, creates a rigorous visual rhythm through oval modules.
Alligatore Velvet in Fuchsia – Detail
The animalier velvets Coccodrillo and Alligatore reinterpret reptile textures with striking scenographic impact. In the new fuchsia colorway, they reveal how the soft, reflective surface of velvet enhances tonal variations, from intense fuchsia to softer rose hues, creating a dynamic, iridescent effect that lends personality to the most sophisticated interiors. Completing the selection is the new Loto velvet in ivory and black, featuring a stylized floral motif where the depth of black converses with a silvery ground, evoking Deco-inspired suggestions with a contemporary sensibility.
Atelier Visconti: A Display That Becomes a Narrative
The space at 4 Rue Visconti is conceived as a visual and tactile journey through the heritage of Tessitura Bevilacqua. The installation, curated by Architect Elisa Monaci, PhD, with technical support from students of ITS Marco Polo in Venice, invites visitors to discover our art not only through sight, but through an immersive experience. The pathway unfolds through scenographic totems that open like the pages of a book: modular panels that create wings, perspectives, and chromatic plays. The black interior finish amplifies the vibration of colors and motifs in the wallpapers and velvets, transforming each totem into a small luminous architecture.
The street-facing windows become a captivating prelude. Animated by colorful mini-totems and small graphic screens, they reveal chromatic accents, details, and fragments of designs that invite passersby to draw closer, like windows opening onto a precious world. Everything is crafted with care, incorporating materials and cuttings from the celebrations of the manufactory’s 150th anniversary, a gesture that gives new life to memory. Each element is designed to be modular, demountable, and reusable: a design vision that unites aesthetics, construction intelligence, and responsibility.
The lower level is conceived as a contemporary art gallery, an intimate space where the entire collection finds a refined stage. Here, visitors encounter the tactile preciousness of handwoven velvets, multicolored heddle velvets and animalier variations, damasks, brocatelles, and lampas fabrics, culminating in a selection of bags and cushions presented as true works of art.
At Paris Déco Off 2026, we are not simply presenting a collection, but a vision: a space that welcomes, moves, and tells an ancient story capable of generating new scenarios for the future.
