cc-tapis Asmara Collection Alfa Rug by Federico Pepe
About the Item
Asmara Collection by Federico Pepe, a tribute to the capital of Eritrea, the UNESCO World Heritage Site known for its futurist architecture. An innovative urbanistic utopia applied to an African context, which is evoked in the design of each rug in the collection. "I applied lines which are inspired by the iconography and the formal essence of modernist architecture.”, explains Federico Pepe.
Originally presented as one single hand-knotted rug called Asmara, which quickly became an icon in the cc-tapis catalogue, now in 2023 Asmara has grown into a collection welcoming two new designs: Zolot and Alfa.

The result of the collaboration with Faye Toogood is a collection of furniture for the living room or bedroom that reveals a least well-known universe of the master, and which Maison Matisse wants to bring out, far removed from the colourful work we are used to seeing. His black and white drawings. The Esquisses collection marks a new step for Maison Matisse with its first objects in a monochrome palette of black, white, and natural beiges. The pared-down colours of a drawing, they foreground the essentials of patterns, and highlight the fluidity and liberty of intuitive gestures that Henri Matisse transmitted even with simple ink on paper.
