Molteni - Hem carpet 400x300

The carpet returns to its ancient function as an island, where one can gather and forget the worries of everyday life. Always different, because it is the result of the encounter between the highest Western creativity and the millenary Asian craftsmanship.
The long collaboration between Molteni&C and Patricia Urquiola is enriched with a new family of products: two carpets, Hem and Loop&Cut, brought together in an exclusive collection. And it is precisely this encounter, combined with natural materials, that gives life to a collection of carpets of great harmony.

Patricia Urquiola

Patricia Urquiola was born in Oviedo, Spain. After studying at the University of Architecture in Madrid, she graduated from the Politecnico di Milano, in 1989 with Achille Castiglioni and in 2001 she opened her studio. Being a designer as much Spanish as Italian has certainly influenced her work, bringing together the rigor of a Milanese education with a whimsical side coming from her origins. She has created several projects and collections for Molteni & C. The Diamond table won the Red Dot Award as the best product of 2005. In the 1990s, she worked on the development of the De Padova product, where he met Vico Magistretti, and developed projects for interiors, showrooms and restaurants. She designs architectures and products for international companies, capable of capturing the attention of the general public. Patricia Urquiola received many awards and recognitions, such as the Wallpaper Design Award, the Elle Decor International Design Award and the Chicago Athenaeum Good Design Award.
