Cal

About Cal

01

Inspiration

The starting point is the lime that covers the façades of southern villages — not only its colour but its character.
Cal refers to this porous whiteness, this gesture of covering that illuminates and protects. The piece captures the raw luminosity of exposed walls, the silence of bare streets, the simple order of whitewashed forms.

02

Technique

Developed in flatweave, Cal makes use of the most essential construction of tapestry: the disciplined crossing of warp and weft.
The technique removes relief to emphasise surface and structure. The result is a clean rug, with restrained expression, where each line reinforces the idea of rigour and sobriety.

03

Materials

Made exclusively with undyed natural wool, Cal reveals the light and matte tone of raw fibre.
The white is not absolute, but the white of matter itself, with its nuances and variations. The texture is dry and cohesive, and the absence of pigment brings the rug closer to the real light that inspires it.
