‘Decoro Ritmo Beige’ explores textiles designed by Bauhaus masters Gunta Stölzl and Anni Albers.
Chimera develops four graphic themes – Empatia, Radici, Ritmo and Colore – with motifs that blend different patterns and colour codes. In Empatia clown faces are mixed with Art Déco references; in Radici different leather textures are used; Ritmo explores a dialogue between the textiles designed by Bauhaus masters Gunta Stölzl and Anni Albers; and Colore’s spotted base is juxtaposed with a bold presence of repeated silhouettes.
The collection is a set of original ceramic coverings laden with symbolic meaning, completed with a series of neutral, undecorated slabs that offer ultimate flexibility.
Always on the lookout for new talents and interested in exploring the intersection of art and design, CEDIT has identified Elena Salmistraro as a leading contemporary creative spirit.
“This collection is an introspective work,” explains Salmistraro,
“focusing on my life and the way I design. Chimera is like a book with four different chapters: I set out to differentiate these graphic motifs to create four totally different stories.”
Of her collaboration with CEDIT, Salmistraro describes the collaboration as very stimulating.
“It was a wonderful challenge that allowed us, together, to create something new, experimental and fascinating.”
Chimera large format slab collection is available in 3 sizes, 20 colours and 2 surface finishes. To discover the entire collection, visit CEDIT
