Colorado
Inga Sempé
Colorado is the first collaborative collection between nanimarquina and Inga Sempé. A collection that harmoniously blends tradition and modernity.
This collection of ethnic style rugs transcends the limits of weaving by combining the traditional and the contemporary, through the use of ancestral techniques such as chobi (hand knotted) and kilim (hand loomed). Each Colorado rug is handwoven with meticulous attention to detail. The combination of these techniques creates a play of textures in two different heights, adding depth and complexity with different fibers and threads in different shades.
The use of chobi gives these rugs a unique visual richness, which is revealed with changes in light and movement. This inherent characteristic of hand-spun wool, together with the chobi technique, lies in how it is woven: the orientation of the fiber when closing the knot, its length and the density of knots.
For Inga, the use of chobi was an essential issue.
Chobi is a luxurious and high-quality material, but at the same time discreet and not ostentatious. I imagined a soft, irregular texture, similar to animal hair; a feeling of luxury, but without being exaggerated.
