Prêt-à-Porter by Piodão Group

Piodão Group has launched a brand new collection of rugs called Prêt-à-Porter that are just as exciting and colorful as their previous pieces.

The “Any” rug, designed by Pedro & Rita Ferreira (Pedrita Studio – Lisbon, Portugal) follow the traditional Portuguese multicolor crochet hot-cloth’s where no threat is wasted and is truly a statement of sustainability. Following the brand’s philosophy, the wool left over from the factory’s regular production is re-rolled and reintroduced into the manufacturing process minimizing waste and environmental impact. The resulting material is then utilized to create a one-of-a-kind “Any” with a strong visual character reflecting the factory weekly production.

The “Play” set of rugs, designed by Luis Nascimento & David Rodrigues (Lisbon, Portugal), is based on a classic video game. The set allows everyone their very personal combination resulting in vivid solutions to brighten unexpected places around the house. Available in three different versions, “Play” can be made into large configurations or arranged individually bringing life to odd corners of virtually any space.

The “Volumes” rug, designed by Enrica Cavarzan and Marco Zavagno (Zaven Studio – Venice, Italy), was inspired by the isometric representation of solid elements, and features a three-dimensional pattern that creates a dazzling visual effect, individually or when placed together in multiples units. A combination of similar colors with bright ones, reinforces the perception of depth in the rug, imitating an optical illusion already adopted in the construction of larger floors made of stone and marbles, commonly seen in public spaces.
