At the Salone del Mobile in Milan Carpet Edition and Ken Scott join forces to create a unique collection of tapestries and rugs inspired by the artistic universe of the famous American designer.
33 tapestries (100x100cm) and shaped rugs, all in New Zealand wool, Tencel and linen, make up the Ken Scott Collection. Inspired by some of Ken Scott’s most iconic works, mainly drawn from the floral world, the tapestries were designed to be hang on the wall and admired as true works of art, while the rugs, available in different shapes and sizes, offer infinite opportunities to personalize every interior space.
Eight iconic Ken Scott flowers reinterpreted by the craftsmanship of Carpet Edition will be on display at Rho Fiera Milano from April 16th to 21st: Anemone, Cosmos, Giunchiglia, Ipomea, Petunia, Rosa, Viola del pensiero and Zinnia. These same flowers were selected by the artist for his Logo label of his outerwear and, now, thanks to Carpet Edition, they have been transformed into authentic works of art for interior design.
Respecting the vibrancy of the colors and texture of the fabrics through sophisticated hand craftsmanship and blending a variety of materials, thread heights and production techniques, like pile with various heights, boucle and shag, Carpet Edition emphasizes the strength of Ken Scott’s designs. This combination gives an incredible vibrancy and three-dimensionality to the tapestries and rugs.
Each design transports the viewer to an enchanted garden, where each flower is a work of art in itself and becomes a bridge between outdoors and indoors, between nature and art, transforming living spaces into an oasis of beauty and inspiration.
