A thought that becomes an icon. Inspired by Le Poème de l’Angle Droit, the art book published in only 250 exemplars that contains the vision of Le Corbusier on architecture, this rug portrays a lithograph in seven colours produced by the historic Paris printer, Studio Mourlot.

At 72,300 knots per square metre, this rug is a masterpiece of Indian craftsmanship. It portrays an open hand, extended in the gesture of offering and receiving culture. An image dear to Le Corbusier, that the master used in 1951 as a symbol of Chandigarh, the new Punjabi capital, for which he designed the city’s first master plan and the main administrative buildings.

The uniqueness of Tapis La Main Ouverte lies in the entirely artisan production technique – each rug contains 72,300 knots per square metre, each one strictly tied by hand.
