Warli Modulor Rug
MODULOR RUG
MODULOR RUG
Designed by Paolo Zani, 2022
Calembour resulting from a new technique that combines tufting directly over a thin handloom rug.
Graphically it is the visual transition of virtually incompatible geometric elements, which instead mutate and blend together in a continuous and harmonious texture.

PRODUCT CARE
Vacuum regularly. Sweep the carpet surface with a soft broom or vacuum clean it in the direction of the pile. Blot stains immediately, possibly with very little water, dry instantly with white absorbing cloth and hair dryer. If, after the above treatments, you’re not able to remove the stains, or if the rug is placed in heavy traffic public areas, we recommend the service of a professional cleaner.
