ottavio missoni (1921–2013) was a visionary italian designer, famous for having founded the missoni fashion house with his wife rosita, synonymous with innovation and creativity. A pioneer in the use of geometric patterns, zigzags, waves and vibrant colours, he transformed textiles into an art form, breaking the monochromatic conventions of the time. The artisanal quality and sophisticated knitting techniques of his fabrics have made his creations unique, characterized by a bold aesthetic inspired by modern art and nature.
over the years, his work has also extended to interior design, giving life to the missoni home line, with carpets, tapestries and furnishing accessories that reflect the brand's distinctive motifs. Among his iconic creations, the orion t101 rug from 1991 is an extraordinary example of his approach to design, where tradition and innovation come together. Ottavio revolutionized the world of textiles, transforming it into a symbol of elegance and experimentation, leaving a legacy that continues to influence contemporary fashion and design.
