Description
Originally created on a semi-mechanical loom, the pure wool rugs revisited by Amini are hand knotted and feature a two-level carved pile. The collection is characterised by four different animal subjects: the leopard, Tapipardo, with orange colour on a blue background; the lion, Tapileo, in ochre colour on a yellow background; the bear, Tapiorso, in white on an ivory background; the dragon, Tapidrago, in green on a white background. The last one, different from the others, is divided into four equal parts and may be assembled according to installation needs: like a runner to embellish an entranceway or corridor, or as a rug, perfect protagonist for any living area.
Roberto Gabetti e Aimaro Isola
The Gabetti & Isola architectural studio, active from 1950 to 2000, is fruit of one of the most prolific professional associations in the modern and contemporary architecture panorama, recognized at a national and international level. Sensitivity for the historic context and attention dedicated to the themes of landscape and environment have distinguished the numerous and renowned works of the studio. Their designs, born in contrast to the stereotypical architecture of the time, have given rise to the comprehensive debate relating to the relationship between modernity and tradition.
