In 2020 the fluctuating plumage of the Feathers Collection of cc-tapis will include 3 new species: Feathers Rectangular, Feathers Freeform big and Feathers Runner. A flock of unique carpets born from Maarten De Ceulaer’s affinity for birds. The works of John James Audubon and John Gould have regularly been a source of inspiration for De Ceulaer who pairs and cuts together digital scans, often changing them and transforming them into further abstraction.A collection that offers different production techniques from hand-knotted to fabric by hand.
Maarten De Ceulaer
Maarten is known for the highly evocative, poetic and playful touch he gives to his objects. He uses his work to tell stories, to arouse emotions in people, to inspire their imagination and to make them wonder. He continually explores new materials and investigates production techniques and craftsmanship. The emotional aspect of the objects is as important as the functional one and has considerable attention to detail. It is known for using materials in unconventional ways and the end result never ceases to surprise.
CC-Tapis
Born in France. Designed in Milan. Produced in Nepal. Cc-tapis is an Italian company which produces contemporary hand-knotted rugs which are created in Nepal by expert Tibetan artisans. The company was founded by Nelcya Chamszadeh and Fabrizio Cantoni in France who have been producing hand-knotted rugs in Nepal for over 18 years. In 2011 cc-tapis moved to Milan where the company is now based and a team of designers lead by Daniele Lora, art-director and partner, innovate through a new approach to traditional methods. Moreover, a strong respect for the materials and for the culture of this ancient craft is reflected in the company’s eco-friendly approach to every step of production, ranging from the hand spinning of the softest Himalayan wool to the use of purified rainwater for the washing of the final products, making each one of cc-tapis rugs unique. Far from mass production, cc-tapis aims to offer a tailored service to those who understand and enjoy a high-end product, where a three month production time contains a story of ageless culture.
