Apex

At its highest point, the landscape shifts from experience to observation. Apex considers terrain from above—where geography resolves into line, movement, and form. Drawn from aerial perspectives, the collection translates the language of topography into something both precise and expressive, with ridgelines, contours, and sweeping expanses distilled into pattern.

Designer Jill Malek renders these elevated views through intricate linework and calibrated color, balancing clarity with atmosphere. Printed on a subtly textured, pearlescent ground and finished with spot gloss over the linework, each design captures light and dimension in a way that feels both expansive and controlled.

Apex by Astek x Jill Malek is a 2026 NYCxDESIGN Winner in the Contract Wallcovering category.
