Designed by the Italian multidisciplinary design studio Studiopepe for Muuto, the Relevo Rug is Muuto's very first tufted rug - a delicate and deeply tactile piece asking to be touched. The Relevo is a soft rug with a distinctly sculptural quality. Its striking graphic pattern is produced by trimming the tufted wool in different levels, creating an eye-catching shadow play that gives a sense of being two-tone rather than monochrome.
Produced from 100% New Zealand wool and hand-tufted in India with 100% cotton backing, the Relevo Rug is a durable and timeless piece that highlights the beauty of craftsmanship. The rug's single rounded corner gives it unique character, a dynamic expression in any setting.
Studiopepe on the design: "The Relevo Rug came to be as it often does; on the drawing board with paper and pencil. We like to create a whole story around a project, this time with a rug that could be a sculpture in its own right, virtually changing the perception of a room. Relevo's lines were inspired by land art and its sometimes furrowed, hypnotic paths in the soil. Relevo means relief in Latin, emblematic of the rug's geometric pattern, made by trimming the hand tufted rug in levels and thereby creating a subtle effect of light and shadow, a compelling visual expression."
