Fordite 1 Carpet

CC-Tapis
by Patricia Urquiola
Fordite is a byproduct of the car manufacturing industry: a multicolored stratum of enamel automotive paint that has built up over time within the factory, which is then baked and polished until it resembles a jewel. Inspired by this material, Patricia Urquiola has integrated a similar approach to sustainability in the creation of these rugs. The Himalayan wool, pure silk and aloe used was sourced from the material excess left over from cc-tapis’s regular production process. The rugs maintain the same layered appearance as Fordite, recreated with recycled wool and accented with lurex threads.

As well as serving as creative director of Cassina since 2015, Urquiola has worked with some of the world’s most important companies including Haworth, Louis Vuitton, Moroso, Flos, Kvadrat, BMW, Starbucks and Ferrari among others.

CC-Tapis

cc-tapis is an Italian company which produces contemporary handmade rugs which are created in Nepal by expert Tibetan artisans.
The company was founded by Nelcya Chamszadeh and Fabrizio Cantoni in France 18 years ago and is based in Milan since 2011 with Daniele Lora as art-director and partner. cc-tapis is able to innovate through a new approach to traditional methods.
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.
