Mutina presents weaving by Neri&Hu

Mutina’s new collaboration with Neri&Hu has given rise to Weaving, a collection of ceramic surfaces inspired by the art of bamboo weaving, reinterpreting a craft tradition for contemporary living. The collection abstracts the delicate weave into a refined graphic language, exploring the rhythmic interaction between solids and voids, in which material form and negative space generate a dynamic balance.

“Like a single strand of wicker, leach element is a unit of potential.  Only when interwoven with others does it transform into a cohesive surface.” explains Neri&Hu.

Weaving is available in different shapes and sizes. When combined, these allow for the creation of three different interlocking patterns, each inspired by a different craft technique: San Jiao (三角, “triangle”), Si Fang (四方, “square”) and Ba Leng (八棱, “octagon”). Each pattern is available in five natural matte tones – White, Grey, Cream, Green, and Black – as well as a multicolour blend inspired by the characteristic shades of bamboo at different stages of maturation.
