(Un)fold Rug by Karpeta

Karpeta was founded in 2006 from an idea by the entrepreneurs Daniele Morabito and Simona Scollica, with the aim of uniting past and present by interweaving master craftsmanship with a contemporary aesthetic.

The aim is to blend the most traditional rug weaving and finishing techniques with the need to tell the story of the present, creating unique pieces that express a deliberate blending of cultures.

Over the years, the company has pursued a virtuous process of continuous renewal and experimentation. Karpeta creations are handmade according to the strict canons of ancient craft tradition, yet projected into the future by the flair and creativity of a team of designers that is renewed every year.

With a typically Italian vocation for quality and innovation, Karpeta’s ultimate goals are minimal environmental impact, the use of high-quality materials and the combination of traditional and cutting-edge techniques.

And so, different cultures and visions are interwoven in the yarns, inspire colours and textures, and redefine materials, objects and living spaces. The result is a synthesis of cultures and worlds that turns the rug into a story of stories, able to transform space and rewrite time.
