Lori Weitzner has been internationally known for her contributions to the world of textiles and wallcoverings for more than thirty years. As VP and Design Director of Weitzner Limited, Lori brings her signature aesthetic and sophisticated colour sense to all the brand’s textiles and wallcoverings.
“Fabrics and wallcoverings are the soul of a space”
With the time-old tools of colour, texture, and pattern, Weitzner ltd creates materials that engage the senses and evoke curiosity, calm, and beauty. Dedicated to environmental consciousness and performance, the line offers four unique perspectives:
WEITZNER HANDMADE | products made by hand by worldwide contemporary artisans
WEITZNER SMART | innovative products that incorporate new technologies and present forward-thinking design solutions
WEITZNER PERFORM | products that utilize special materials, finishes, and constructions to exceed industry standards
WEITZNER INDOOR-OUTDOOR | fabrics designed to enhance indoor and outdoor spaces alike.
For this brand focus we delve into the world of Weitzner – Handmade and their unique Paper Tile collection.
Weitzner Handmade is committed to preserving the time-honoured techniques and artistry of those who make a product by hand. With every intention that these skills will not merely survive, but thrive, Weitzner work with artisans around the world to provide a contemporary marketplace for their soulful products.
To this end, Weitzner’s handmade tiles are a stunning marriage of traditional artisanal technique and innovation. Highly sustainable abaca pulp is moulded by hand carved blocks, slowly dried and die cut for uniform sizing. The finished 16” x 16” tiles are unbacked, and easy to install. You can mix and match different designs, go for a streamlined look with one pattern, or even paint them after installation.
“I love working closely with the talented artisans that make these paper tiles, and I am thrilled to introduce these new – nature inspired designs as part of Weitzner’s 2023 Spring Forest Bathing Collection”

Reintroduced in a light, natural colour, Calculus offers a graphic option with its serene half-moon shapes. Each of the 16” x 16” tiles are beautifully handmade of rapidly renewable abaca pulp, making them light enough for easy installation.
Delicate impressions of leaves are captured in this stunning handmade paper tile. Made from natural materials, Leaflet brings the outdoors in with its artful botanical print.
This handmade botanical tile offers dimension and drama. Palma is striking with its dynamic composition of diagonal palm branches. By rotating the tiles, designers can create unique feature walls and more abstract designs.
We are delighted to announce that Weitzner have been selected as the winner of the prestigious Living etc. Style Award for Best Wallpaper Innovation, Paper Tiles
