MILANO, 06/04/2019

milan design week 2019Spectrum: Killer Knots from Outer Space

1_introduzionecc-tapis irrompe nella Milan Design Week ’19 con Spectrum: Killers Knots from Outer Space, una nuovissima collezione di tappeti annodati a mano, presentata sia al del Salone del Mobile che nello showroom di Piazza Santo Stefano 10.

Dal sistema solare al cuore di Detroit, Spectrum riunisce sei designer per una collezione stellare: Martino Gamper ha scomposto scacchiere technicolor riproponendole in molteplici dimensioni; Patricia Urquiola si è recata in uno stabilimento Ford alla ricerca di campioni di colore; mentre l’ispirazione di david/nicolas è nata da un lungo pranzo a Beirut. Abbiamo esaminato le sfumature di colore con Germans Ermicš; siamo andati alla caccia di uccelli rari negli archivi Audubon in compagnia di Maarten de Ceulaer; abbiamo guardato il cielo con Studiopepepe e abbiamo speso qualche gettone in una sala giochi anni Ottanta con la nuova collezione cc-tapis Rug Invaders.

Il direttore artistico Daniele Lora spiega l’obiettivo del progetto: “Spectrum pone l’accento sull’illimitata capacità di ricerca e sperimentazione di cc-tapis nell’ambito di diverse tecniche e finiture. Ogni tappeto è presentato come un vero e proprio esperimento a sé stante, creato indipendentemente dagli altri, senza necessariamente un legame estetico o un “fil rouge”. É solo all’interno del laboratorio Spectrum che i tappeti si combinano e confondono, affermando la loro identità comune. La nostra missione è comunicare le infinite possibilità di sperimentazione offerte dalla nostra tecnica artigianale al fine di ispirare i nostri clienti mostrando loro ciò che siamo capaci di fare”.

Durante la Design Week, Studio MILO trasformerà lo showroom di Piazza Santo Stefano e lo stand del Salone del Mobile in un laboratorio retro-futuristico dove nulla è realmente ciò che appare.

2_cc-tapis showroom and standIndossate il vostro camice da laboratorio e preparate le siringhe, perché cc-tapis e Studio MILO hanno delle serie ricerche da condurre. Ispirandosi alle fantasie dell’era spaziale retro-futuristica degli anni Ottanta, i visitatori dello showroom di Piazza Santo Stefano e dello stand del Salone del Mobile verranno accolti in un laboratorio di fantascienza dove la sperimentazione regna sovrana.

Dopo il successo dello stand cc-tapis del 2018 e la sua colorata sequenza di archi, lo Studio MILO ha approfondito l’archivio di materiali per il concept Spectrum del 2019. Dettagli cromtici, illuminazione al neon e un’ampia ricerca dedicata a materiali completamente riciclabili che verranno riciclati dopo la Milano Design Week: sia la struttura in ferro sia le lastre in policarbonato possono essere riutilizzate in ogni loro parte; il rivestimento spray verde in sughero è un materiale ecosostenibile e biologicamente puro, e i panelli in Celenit sono fatti di un composto naturale in legno prodotto dalla gestione sostenibile delle foreste. Tutti questi elementi sono stati trasformati in un’esperienza immersiva: un ambiente altamente infiammabile che ospita gli ultimi esperimenti del laboratorio cc-tapis.

3_about cc-tapis Nato in Francia. Progettato a Milano. Prodotto in Nepal. cc-tapis è un’azienda italiana che produce tappeti contemporanei annodati a mano in Nepal da esperti artigiani tibetani.

cc-tapis viene fondata in Francia da Nelcya Chamszadeh e Fabrizio Cantoni, produttori di tappeti annodati a mano in Nepal da oltre 18 anni. Nel 2011 l’azienda si trasferisce a Milano, dove ha tuttora sede, e ospita un team di designer guidato da Daniele Lora, art-director e partner, che produce innovazione attraverso un nuovo approccio ai metodi tradizionali.

L’assoluto rispetto per i materiali e per la tradizione di questa antica tecnica artigianale si riflette nell’approccio sostenibile dell’azienda in ogni fase della produzione, dalla filatura a mano della più morbida lana himalayana fino all’utilizzo di acqua piovana depurata per il lavaggio dei prodotti finali, che rende ogni tappeto cc-tapis un pezzo unico.

cc-tapis si discosta dalla produzione di massa prefiggendosi di offrire un servizio su misura dedicato a coloro che comprendono e apprezzano un prodotto di alto livello, contraddistinto da un periodo di produzione di tre mesi che racchiude una storia di cultura senza tempo.

xequer collection

Dalla collisione tra vari strati di brillanti scacchiere nasce l’ultima collezione di Martino Gamper per cc-tapis. L’immaginazione dell’artista dà vita a un mondo psichedelico di colori accesi e penetranti che si intrecciano e si sovrappongono. I materiali, come la lana dell’Himalaya, pura seta e lino, annodati a mano, interagiscono proprio come le linee color-block che compongono il reticolo, creando un brillante incontro di texture e sfumature. Linee rifratte, prospettive distorte e il tipico gioco grafico delle opere di Gamper culminano in cinque nuovi e affascinanti tappeti.

fordite collection

La collezione Fordite è un sottoprodotto dell’industria automobilistica: uno strato multicolore di vernice smaltata per automobili, accumulatosi nel tempo all’interno dello stabilimento, viene poi cotto e lucidato fino a sembrare un gioiello. Traendo ispirazione dalla modalità di formazione di questo materiale, Patricia Urquiola applica nella creazione di questi tappeti un approccio analogo, associandolo però alla sostenibilità. La lana dell’Himalaya, la pura seta e l’aloe utilizzate sono state infatti ricavate dai residui di materiale impiegato durante il regolare processo produttivo di cc-tapis. I tappeti mantengono lo stesso aspetto stratificato della Fordite ricreato qui con lana riciclata.

jean-marie massaud

Since the beginning of his career (a 1990 graduate of Paris’ ENSCI-Les Ateliers, Paris Design Institute), Jean-Marie Massaud has been working on an extensive range of works, stretching from architecture to objects, from one-off project to serial ones, from macro environment down to micro contexts. Major brands such as Axor, Cassina, Christofle, Poliform, Toyota have solicited his ability to mix comfort and elegance, zeitgeist and heritage, generosity and distinction.

Beyond these elegant designs, his quest for lightness – in matters of essence – synthesize three broader stakes: individual and collective fulfillment, economic and industrial efficiency, and environmental concerns. “I’m trying to find an honest, generous path with the idea that, somewhere between the hard economic data, there are users. People.”

His creations, whether speculative or pragmatic, explore this imperative paradigm: reconciling pleasure with responsibility, the individual with the collective.

When asked to imagine a new stadium for the city of Guadalajara, Mexico, he comes back with a never seen before

cloud and volcano-shaped building, integrated in a vast urban-development program that re-unite leisure and culture, nature and urbanization, sport aficionados and local citizens. Instead of implanting a stadium, he proposed an environment. And the initial vision has proven a realistic approach: the project has come to life in July 2011.

More recently, his concept car developed in partnership with Toyota, has the same objective. MEWE is a synthesis of economical and ecological concepts, integrating issues specific to each stakeholder: the user, industry, and the environment. A pioneering multiple-use platform that is a car for the people, with a body in expanded polypropylene foam: a major innovation.

“When I’m working on a project, there’s always an attempt to renew the subject I’m involved in”. Another distinctive aspect of his approach.

Plasterworks Collection

L’amicizia tra cc-tapis e david/nicolas risale ai tempi dell’università, quindi non sorprende che le basi per la collezione Plasterworks siano state gettate nel corso di un lungo pranzo informale. L’incontro si è tenuto a Kaléo, il ristorante di Beirut progettato dal duo, le cui pareti decorate da triangoli hanno fornito l’ispirazione per un motivo declinato in molteplici varianti, caratterizzato da linee morbide, creativi accostamenti cromatici e texture a contrasto. Ogni motivo, disegnato a mano, è stato poi trasformato in un finissimo tappeto annodato a mano in lana dell’Himalaya e seta.

David Raffoul and Nicolas Moussallem have established a global presence since they set uptheir studio, david/nicolas, in Beirut in 2011. Their innovative approach to contrastingmaterials, along with their unique way of blending retro, contemporary and futuristic elements, gives their work a timeless aesthetic that translates to a wide range of projects, from furniture design to high-end bespoke interiors.

David and Nicolas met at the Lebanese Academy of Fine Arts, where they both studied for a Bachelor’s degree in Interior Design, going on to undertake Masters degrees at the Scuola Politecnica Di Design in Milan. After graduating, both undertook internships with international design studios, Nicolas going on to freelance for a year in Beirut while David worked as a designer at Fabrica, in Treviso, Italy.

Since 2011, david/nicolas has staged several exhibitions and collaborated with established international brands. The duo’s “retro-futuristic” aesthetic is rooted in a wide range of influences, from Oriental geometry, to antique furniture, to robots, space travel and the music of Daft Punk. The partnership is built on mutual criticism, as much as encouragement.

David creates detailed sketches while Nicolas prefers to write

down his ideas, and no design is ever completed without both partners’ input. While one is working on a design, the other will often “hack” it, vetoing a particular aspect or suggesting an addition that necessitates a fresh approach.

The duo’s breakout year came in 2014 at the Milan Design Week during which the New York Times selected them as one of the design week’s three breakout stars. Later the same year, they held their first solo show in Beirut, “Loulou/Hoda” at JM Design Gallery, exhibiting pieces inspired by their grandmothers that combined Oriental and Western as well as antique and contemporary influences. Subsequently, the studio introduced its first industrial project at Maison & Objet, the “Orquestra” tableware collection for Vista Alegre, which was awarded the Red Dot Design Award and the Wallpaper* Award.

Una costellazione di forme decostruite si scontra nella collezione Lunar Addiction di Studiopepepepe. Ogni tappeto è contraddistinto da una serie di contrasti: motivi complessi e regolarità visive, superfici piatte affiancate ad elementi tridimensionali, texture ruvide e lisce. Le configurazioni asimmetriche dei tappeti sono interrotte da elementi grafici puri, che conferiscono ad ogni composizione un tocco contemporaneo. Ogni pezzo è composto da un vello volutamente “shaggy” in lana naturale himalayana, accostato a sezioni ultra raffinate e rifinite, meticolosamente scolpite a mano.

Maarten De Ceulaer ha sempre avuto un’affinità con la fauna volatile. Anni fa si è imbattuto nelle illustrazioni di John James Audubon e John Gould. Per creare un’immagine, De Ceulaer scansiona, isola digitalmente e combina insieme vari uccelli, spesso modificandoli e trasformandoli in un’ulteriore astrazione. I collage vengono poi trasformati in tappeti ricchi e sofisticati, annodati a mano in lana e seta himalayana. La variazione dell’altezza del pelo conferisce al tappetto un senso di profondità, sottolineando le forme delle piume.

Maarten De Ceulaer was born in Belgium in 1983. He first studied Interior Design at the Sint-Lukas Hogeschool in Brussels. Attracted by conceptual and narrative design, he continued his studies at the Design Academy Eindhoven. A strong passion for travelling inspired his graduation project ‘A Pile of Suitcases’, which was immediately picked up by Nina Yashar, founder of the renowned Milanese gallery Nilufar. It was the start of a close and ongoing collaboration, and a collection that has grown steadily over the years.

Maarten is known for the highly evocative, poetic and playful touch he gives his objects. He uses his work to tell stories, to stir people’s emotions, to inspire their imagination and to make them wonder. He continuously explores new materials and investigates in production techniques and crafts. The emotional aspect of objects is equally important as the functional, and he has a remarkable attention for detail. He is known for using materials in unconventional ways, and the end-result never ceases to surprise.

Maarten De Ceulaer has been awarded with the Belgian Young Designer award in 2007 and the Henry Van De Velde award for

Young Talent 2013. Besides Gallery Nilufar, he also works with Victor Hunt Gallery in Brussels, and companies such as Moroso, Cappellini, Fendi and Casamania. His work is held in private and public collections (Design Museum Ghent), and has been exhibited in museums (Stedelijk Museum ‘s Hertogenbosch, Design Museum Ghent, Triennale Milan), festivals, biennials and fairs worldwide.

La Tidal Collection esplora il rapporto simbiotico tra cromie e forme. Spesso il colore è una riflessione a posteriori, ma in questa collezione è stato sviluppato proprio per diventare l’elemento principale. Una superficie bidimensionale diviene tridimensionale man mano che il colore crea movimento e animazione all’interno del disegno. “Inizio sempre con forme geometriche primarie, come cerchi, quadrati e rettangoli, e lascio che sia il disegno a trasformarle”, dice Ermičs parlando del suo metodo di lavoro. Per creare l’effetto di dissolvenza monocromatica, cc-tapis ha ideato un sistema di colorazione completamente nuovo, combinando fili di lana himalayana in saturazioni alternate, in un processo laborioso che invoca una sottile meditazione sul colore e sulla forma.

envolée

Il nuovo progetto di Cristina Celestino per cc-tapis prende ispirazione da una dellearchitetture più delicate presenti in natura: le ali delle farfalle.

Osservate al microscopio, la loro bellezza è così sofisticata da sfidare ogni descrizione.Sono strutture effimere, caratterizzate da scaglie iridescenti, ipnotiche e meravigliose.Le ali dei lepidotteri sembrano pennellate come quadri in movimento. L’eleganza dellacomposizione ad uno sguardo più accurato assume quasi la consistenza di un tessuto.

Una riflessione che porta Cristina Celestino a tradurre in scala macro quanto non visibile ad occhio nudo. Il motivo decorativo è così rivelato dall’alternarsi di composizionicromatiche declinate su densità materiche differenti, dalla lane al Lino. Un ritmo chesi traduce in una texture vibrante e piena, giocando sulle differenze tessili e sullediverse altezze dei materiali impiegati.
