The Hunua collection, designed by Piero Lissoni, brings together the art of the carpet and Nepalese manufacturing with tailoring and detail work, in mute testimony to the way that diverse techniques and traditions can form a medley. The name refers to a concept of universalism: “Unua” was the first book written about Esperanto, an emblem of the universal dialogue between peoples and a product of the cultural nomadism that is currently enriching traditions of the past with new meaning. Within each carpet, the different wefts, woven tone-on-tone in a single composition, offer an overall vision that gives rise to an exquisite and heterogeneous mosaic: the structure, in fact, is composed like a collage of monochromatic graphic embroideries.
With intrinsic and subtle elements thoughtfully placed, spaces come to the fore. We’d love to connect with you for projects. Let’s get in touch.
