Battilossi’s New Interior Concept
Battilossi
A new interior concept, where minimalist white and gray give way to delicate colors such as vanilla, cream and biscuit, embellished with meticulous three-dimensional decorations. A journey through the various Battilossi collections to discover “warm neutrals”, carpets with sober nuances where the tactile aspect is the focal point: continuous surfaces that welcome the shapes and volumes of the furnishings, enriching the visual spectrum with new unexpected nuances.
Avita
Battilossi’s desire behind the Avita collection is to add a layer of sophistication to a flatweave carpet, usually associated with Kilim and Dhurrie. To achieve this, different weaving techniques and embroidery (soumak) were identified and tested, implementing a more marked and consistent flat surface. The use of phenomenal hues with exceptional color variation, mixed weft wrapping techniques (soumak) and the finest handspun Ghazni wool, give the rugs of the Avita collection a unique and spectacular look, offering an extra layer of depth.

Caleido Concept No.1
Caleido Concept No.1 represents the first step towards a style which is highly oriented to interior decoration professionals. Design loses its primary function towards an overall, cosy ‘ensemble’, composed by a combination of dense repeated patterns, very difficult and innovative weaving techniques and a highly sophisticated colour palette. Battilossi goes against the flow of the market by creating a collection that embodies the anti-statement rug by excellence. The pattern is just an excuse to play with textures and colours, 27 combinations where all the elements talk to each other in a delicate dialogue within each individual rug and in combination one to another. The 3 colour tones (light, medium and dark) are easily combined with each other in a harmonious complementarity. The definition of tone, in the case of Caleido, refers to the color of the background and the general perception of the carpet as a whole. The intention is always to obtain a bright and brilliant result, even in dark tones carpets.
Design. Fracto (Colors: Adobe, Autumn, Cactus, Chalk, Ink, Rust, Sand Stone, Tiffany, Yogurt), Frost (Colors: Bermuda, Emerald; Jazzberry, Mamba, Oysterbay, Raincloud, Seashell, Truffle, Vanilla), Furosa (Colors: Capri, Chestnut, Grape, Navy, Starburst, Teal, Thunder, Trueblue, Venice).

Series #1
Contrasts inspire the Series 1 collection but colour and its interaction with tactile material underpins its success. The clarity of the design and colours throughout the collection is achieved through the use of an innovative weaving technique and a carefully chosen mixture of materials. Silk is used in fields of confident hues interspersed with wool throughout the pile, giving a softer texture to the Series 1 carpets; this is in contrast to the plain and coloured sari-silk used to embellish the sides and ends. The rich materiality of the pile contrasts with the textured weave in an unexpected design harmony. The high quality makes this collection perfect for elegant and formal interiors.
Design. Edge (Colors: Charcoal, Grey), Flame On (Colors: Silver, Natural White, Indigo, Green, Blue), Niwas (Colors: Brown, Charcoal), Pipes (Colors: Blue, Red, White), Rhapsody (Colors: Blue, Purple Brown, Red), Skyfall (Colors: Blue, Grey, Red).

BATTILOSSI
Deep knowledge of textile art, exquisite craftsmanship, fine yarns and an exclusive palette of 1200 shades with which to experiment with innovative textures identify Battilossi, a Turin-based company engaged in a never-ending design research aimed at passing on the millenarian tradition of oriental rugs, projecting it into contemporary design. For 30 years, Battilossi contemporary rugs have been the result of a refined intertwining between East and West where Italian creativity, style, know-how and culture are combined with the ancient experience of the master craftsmen of Nepal and Pakistan, in a continuous exchange of connoisseurship and in mutual evolution.
The company is one of the few in this field that can make use of two factories, each one expressing the tradition of the country of origin: in Kathmandu, Nepal, sophisticated hand-knotted and handwoven carpets are made in wool, silk, linen, nettle and other natural materials, and in Lahore, Pakistan, the most innovative textures are developed, original techniques with the precious wool from Ghazni, in Afghanistan.
