Asmara Rug
DESIGNED BY Federico Pepe
FOR CC-tapis
A rug named Asmara as a tribute to the capital of Eritrea, now recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site thanks to it’s modernist architecture, designed by visionary architects in the fascist colonial era.
An urbanistic, innovative utopia applied to an African context. The Asmara rug has an aspect focusing on materials and the simplicity of the workmanship. To this, lines which are inspired by the iconography and the formal essentiality of modernist architecture are applied.
Proudly made by hand in Nepal.
