The project, announced between Munich and Cologne in December 2025, translates a design from the Twenties into a large textile artifact, demonstrating how the legacy of modernism can be reinterpreted today with contemporary sensitivity, attention to materials and craftsmanship.\nThe rug was born from an <strong>original gouache by Gray<\/strong>, in which the designer explored the symbolic geometry of the circle and the psychological effects of color. From that research L'Art Noir takes shape: a composition of <strong>four concentric circles<\/strong>, each divided into two contrasting chromatic fields. The combinations combine <strong>ocean blue in light and dark shades<\/strong>, <strong>beige and khaki<\/strong>, <strong>gray and beige<\/strong>, building an essential and deeply balanced visual rhythm. The name itself \u2013 \"L'Art Noir\" \u2013 recalls Gray's investigation into the role of black and tonal variations, synthesizing a design thought that blends <strong>art, architecture and design<\/strong>.\nThe choice of the circular shape is not just an aesthetic gesture: the circle, for Gray, is a <strong>universal symbol of harmony and continuity<\/strong>. The overall effect evokes a coastal landscape \u2013 sea, sand, vegetation \u2013 and refers to the original context of the work, <strong>Villa E1027<\/strong> on the C\u00f4te d'Azur, where the carpet served as an accent capable of enhancing the timeless modernity of the interiors.      In this sense, L'Art Noir consciously oscillates between <strong>an everyday object and a work of art<\/strong>, reaffirming Gray's vision: a refined aesthetic that does not give up functionality.","testo_b":"<strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.classicon.com\/\">ClassiCon<\/a><\/strong> propone il tappeto in <strong>due diametri (200 e 300 cm)<\/strong> e in <strong>due versioni materiche<\/strong>. La prima \u00e8 realizzata in <strong>lana vergine neozelandese<\/strong> filata a mano, tinta con pigmenti ecocompatibili testati secondo <strong>OEKO-TEX\u00ae STANDARD 100<\/strong>; la seconda utilizza fibre vegetali di <strong>ortica himalayana<\/strong> lavorate manualmente, offrendo un\u2019alternativa completamente plant-based. Entrambe le varianti sono <strong>annodate a mano in Nepal<\/strong> con il tradizionale <strong>nodo tibetano<\/strong>, che conferisce una superficie particolarmente morbida e setosa, con una densit\u00e0 di circa <strong>124.000 nodi per metro quadrato<\/strong>.\nLa produzione avviene in collaborazione con <strong>Label STEP<\/strong>, organizzazione impegnata nel garantire condizioni di lavoro eque e pratiche responsabili dal punto di vista ambientale.   A commitment that reinforces the value of the project: <strong>formal beauty, tactile quality and sustainability<\/strong> proceed together, in line with a conception of design that is attentive to people and territories.\nFounded on the tradition of the <strong>Vereinigte Werkst\u00e4tten in Munich<\/strong>, ClassiCon builds its catalog as a dialogue between <strong>classic and avant-garde<\/strong>, preserving the licenses of great masters of the Modern \u2013 including Eileen Gray \u2013 and placing them alongside contemporary signatures. With <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.classicon.com\/en\/product\/l-art-noir-rug.html\">L'Art Noir<\/a><\/strong>, the company not only enriches the collection, but reaffirms a vision: design as an <strong>encounter between memory and present<\/strong>, where craftsmanship precision and chromatic research transform a carpet into an architectural gesture for the domestic space. \n\nINFO: www.classicon.com\n\nCREDIT OF THE LICENCE HOLDER for all products designed by Eileen Gray: Manufacturer ClassiCon authorised by The World Licence Holder Aram Designs Ltd.\n\nPHOTO COURTESY: Fabian Frinzel","foto_articolo":[64945,64947,64949,64951],"guest_o_libero":"","prezzo":"","chiara":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/theinteriordesign.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/64953","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/theinteriordesign.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/theinteriordesign.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theinteriordesign.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1594"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theinteriordesign.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=64953"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/theinteriordesign.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/64953\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":64956,"href":"https:\/\/theinteriordesign.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/64953\/revisions\/64956"}],"acf:attachment":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theinteriordesign.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/64951"},{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theinteriordesign.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/64949"},{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theinteriordesign.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/64947"},{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theinteriordesign.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/64945"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theinteriordesign.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/64945"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/theinteriordesign.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=64953"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theinteriordesign.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=64953"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theinteriordesign.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=64953"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
