FLORALIA, FOLDING and ROOMS by Serena Confalonieri

After years of experience in the field of product, graphic and textile design, Serena Confalonieri came to know the extraordinary world of Carpet Edition, the young and dynamic Italian company known for its ability to uniquely combine tradition and innovation.

Among the numerous collections proposed by the company, those realized in collaboration with Serena Confalonieri distinguish themselves with their visual language full of echoes and inspiration. Seemingly simple designs and forms are actually the fruit of mindful conceptual research, and thanks to Carpet Edition’s in-depth technical knowledge of artisanal production, it has been possible to transform these carpets into true works of art.

Rooms, for example, at first glance seems like a linear, geometric rug, characterized by strong and intense colors. But there is much more. Its name evokes a room, which is the actual protagonist of the design: various shades of red and a shadow of black actually outline and highlight a prospective, giving life to a space, or more precisely, to an empty room.

Floralia instead captures attention with its circular form and floral image. In this case Serena Confalonieri drew inspiration on one side from traditional botanical design, and on the other from contemporary art and the color palette of Gary Hume, famous for his stylized depictions of everyday objects and the use of bright, strong, vibrant colors.

Lastly, Folding is an homage to Franco Grignani, exponent of geometric abstractionism and constructivism, and to Sol LeWitt, an American artist closely tied to conceptual art and minimalism. It is in fact a carpet with an essential design, where the linear motif is further accentuated by the color contrast between black and white.
