G.T.Design opens a new space in Milan - "La Cabina"

Il nuovo spazio permanente firmato G.T.DESIGN ha aperto le porte durante la Milano Design Week

G.T.DESIGN, brand pioneer of contemporary rug, inaugurated at the Milan Fuorisalone its new permanent space, "La Cabina" in the San Babila district, at Via Cino del Duca 2, one of Milan's most prestigious design areas.

A space that enhances the elegance and uniqueness of the brand's fabrics, inspired by the architectural masters of the 1930s and 1950s, in an intimate and relaxed atmosphere away from the chaos of storefronts, designed to facilitate the choice of textures and tailor-made finishes dedicated to the most exclusive projects.

During the famous Milanese event, La Cabina hosted the exhibition "Deanna Comellini - Unique" - A series of rugs and tapestries that are the result of the designer's incessant research work. The exhibition features original and unique objects, an expression of the highest Italian craftsmanship and creativity.

The exhibition is set within an arrangement that favors the artistic approach summarized in the phrase "Ce n'est pas un tapis, c'est un object" by Deanna Comellini, where the rug is reinterpreted, and shown as a precious object.

The new collections displayed:

Golden Threads, an ultra-lightweight, hand-woven New Zealand wool rug with hand-applied gold foil inserts

Golden Fleece, long piled rugs made of fine natural fibers such as Afghan wool and linen in different yarn blends

Al Tratto, hand-woven on traditional looms is distinguished by subtle engravings, and line-like drawings, also imprinted on New Zealand wool

Paglietta, whose collection is enriched with a new and very precious weave.

La Cabina is the new point of reference in Milan for architects and designers who want to integrate textile furnishings into their projects with a tailor-made service and products of the highest quality.
