EMOZIONI RUG
EMOZIONI RUG
The "Inganni Spaziali" collection celebrates Italian design through a collaboration with a historic name in graphic design, Armando Milani.
The four rugs that compose the group, Emozioni, Illusione, Grovigli, and Connessioni, are the large-scale transposition of analog works from the 1970s.
Optical illusions on paper and sophisticated shapes come to life in the rug composed of natural and precious fibers.
To recreate the three-dimensionality of volumes and the light and dark of the rug's weave of Emozioni, we combined 80% wool and 20% silk yarns with a 100 knots/inch² knot density.

CARE GUIDE
Natural handmade rugs offer excellent durability. They can be cleaned and repaired many times and should last a lifetime. Most of the dirt can be easily cleaned from a genuine hand-knotted rug. Almost any stains and spillages can be treated by cold water and laundry soap without dyes. In any case we recommend to attract professional cleaning service.
DETAIL
The warm palette and homogeneous 6mm pile height evoke the surface of paper-cotton by returning a soft and tactile feeling. The sizes and rectangular shapes of the rugs maintain the proportions of Milani's original works; however, they can be adapted to the client's needs.
TIMING
Blot away any spills immediately and then clean with mild soap and water – do not use chemical cleaners and call a professional cleaning service.
CHEMICALS
At any circumstances do not use any type of chemicals to clean your rug as it destroys the natural materials
FADING
Over time, any material left in strong sunlight will fade, avoid a constant exposure to direct sunlight to prevent fading.
