HN425 is inspired by the dawn clouds, using a thin, translucent paper that is gently twisted, allowing the underlying gold color to show through. The overlapping layers change expression and create depth. All of these features excel in durability, and compared to traditional fiber-based wallpapers, they are highly resistant to color fading due to light (testing method: JIS L 0842) and also resistant to color fading from friction (testing method: JIS L 0849). Additionally, they are treated with a water-repellent finish, making them resistant to dirt.
