The long-standing partnership between Molteni&C and Patricia Urquiola has been enriched with a fine
new family of products: two floor rugs together in an exclusive collection. The Spanish designer offers
her creative interpretation of the values underpinning Molteni&C’s production, in tune with the refined but
sobre elegance that the brand represents. Rugs return to their original purpose as islands, places where
people sit down together and forget their daily chores. Always different, because they express a blend
of superb western creativity and ancient craft traditions from Asia. Ancient hands interpret the designs,
contributing those small personal variations that have always been the weavers’ prerogative and their
added value. And it is precisely this combination, along with natural materials, that has given rise to this
harmonious collection of rugs.
Inspired by techniques used in knitting, and especially by the ribbing on pullover cuffs, used for these rugs as
edging. A feature that gives the product character and a touch of originality.
