Orpheu
From the poetic perspective of Fernando Pessoa to the aesthetic vernacular of Portuguese architecture, Orpheu paints a Fauvist vision of imagination and reality through the eyes of Olivier Garcé and Clio Dimofski.
Drawing inspiration from Portugal’s illustrious history, Orpheu's namesake was derived from a short-lived literary magazine in Lisbon, originally founded in 1915 by Fernando Pessoa, a poet whose greatest desire was to feel everything in every way.
Dancing shadows, daisy chains, and forgotten dreams transmogrify in these designs, shapeshifting into rugs that combine flatwoven and knotted wool, a new hybrid technique orchestrated by our master weavers.
Garcé & Dimofski
Garcé & Dimofski
Designed by the Lisbon-based multi-disciplinary studio Garcé & Dimofski, Orpheu offers a kaleidoscopic view of perception and how beautifully the dial turns for each individual person and how they interpret the world.
Echoing aesthetic sentiments of the Fauvist art movement led by Henri Matisse, every rug presents a woolen canvas of vibrant color and melodic movement from radical rays of sunlight to geometric towers of Azulejo tiling.
