Ortigu Terra ORTIGU Collection, Mario Cucinella Architects
The ORTIGU collection takes inspiration from the bark of the cork, a plant characteristic of the Mediterranean maquis that characterises the landscape of the whole of northern Sardinia and various wooded areas on the island.
The name Ortigu means cork in Sardinian. The textures come from observing the natural patterns visible on these specimens, reproduced on rugs and cushions.

Mariantonia Urru created this rug and pillows using the Pibiones technique, which consists of twisting thick yarn around the needles on the loom, to create the grains' raised effect that remind the shape of grapes (pibiones in Sardinian), creating positive and negative space as well as shadows, thus giving the rug its distinct texture.
