STUDIO KLASS’ CINQUECENTO RUG COLLECTION<br />
TAKES CUES FROM RENAISSANCE ART<br />
Industrial designers Marco Maturo and Alessio Roscini from Studio Klass have created a collection of<br />
geometric rugs informed by Italian Renaissance paintings.<br />
Called Cinquecen<strong>to</strong>, meaning 500 in Italian, the collection was designed by the Milan-based duo for<br />
contemporary rug manufacturer Cc-Tapis.<br />
Handmade using Himalayan wool and silk, the rugs aim <strong>to</strong> celebrate the introduction of perspective in<br />
art during the Italian Renaissance period through their geometric patterns and jewel-<strong>to</strong>ned colours.<br />
Each of the four rugs in the collection has been inspired by a particular painting from the Renaissance<br />
era, including well-known 15th century artists such as Sandro Botticelli and Giovanni Bellini.<br />
