“This carpet is a mix between a ribbon that unfolds on the ground (in a corridor, for example) and the traditional red carpet which gives it a chic/cinema side! We managed to obtain a volume effect thanks to the use of various red tones. It is very graphic, designed and contemporary and at the same time it appeals to the collective memory of the palace stairs.”, Sam Baron explains.
