Barcelona-based rug studio nanimarquina , founded in 1987 by Nani Marquina, has been creating contemporary textiles for the floor crafted in India, Morocco, Pakistan, and Spain. This month’s Deconstruction takes us to India, for the manufacture of one of the company’s most popular, and surely the most fun (polka dots in relief!): a fuchsia and purple concoction from the Topissimo collection, which won a Red Dot Design Award in 2003. Above: Nani Marquina with some of the women who manufactured the Topissimo Collection in the Indian workshops. The Topissimo Collection was designed by Nani Marquina in 2002. These are the first design sketches.
