The Collage collection, presented at the Milan Furniture Fair in 2022, was born of a human encounter around a residential project, and illustrates the richness of Nepal's ancestral hand-knotted craftsmanship. The fruit of passionate research into shapes, colors and textures, Rugs Taoka, Doblas and Coban boldly and forcefully convey the sensuality of a vibrant, fluctuating nature: an inexhaustible source of inspiration for Marie Bastide... Drawing on a highly contemporary abstract pictorial register, the designer evokes here, in subtle balance, the intimate power of memory.
