MONOGRAM By Radici
The Monogram printed carpet recalls the monograms that often identify the iconic patterns of the major high fashion houses, recreating a decoration with repeated letters or symbols.
The new Newstalgia textile surfaces collection, designed for Radici by Tekla Evelina Severin - aka Teklan- , reinterprets the patterns of the 1960s and 1970s by playing with colors and proportions. The name evokes the feeling of a past moment, of a distant era, yet revived with the curiosity and energy of something new.
The result is a collection featuring vibrant hues and balanced combinations, straight lines, geometric shapes, and three-dimensional patterns that create unexpected perspectives. The mix of colors, closely tied to the designer’s signature style, combines warm tones like peach and burgundy with contrasting hues such as light blue and terracotta.
Newstalgia is a family of highly recognizable and diverse printed textile flooring that maintains a cohesive aesthetic thanks to the use of just 16 different shades that blend into eight patterns – Monogram, Elliptic, Weave, Brick, Net, Snake, Folding, and Backgammom – each offered in two variants. Classic combinations and unprecedented pairings result in a cohesive yet nuanced and dynamic collection.
"The common creative vision across all my projects is to create a kind of ‘Everyday Surrealism,’ playing with different perspectives, color combinations, and intertwining a study of two-dimensional space with a perception of three-dimensionality," says designer Tekla Evelina Severin. "I always strive to find new chromatic dialogues, combining similar shades, tone-on-tone, or mixing light and lively colors with deeper, earthier ones."
The new collection features Radici’s Bloom Back textile flooring, an innovative and sustainable surface made from Econyl yarn with a monocomponent structure, combining a primary polyamide fabric with an underlay made of the same material, promoting complete recyclability at the end of the product’s life
