MODENESE PROJECT: Exploring the Sarelli Legacy in Handtufted Carpets
In the world of high-end interior design, the floor is not merely a surface to be walked upon; it is the foundational canvas upon which a room’s entire narrative is built. It is the unifying element, the silent anchor that grounds every piece of furniture, every lighting fixture, and every curated objet d'art. A truly exceptional space begins from the ground up, and at the heart of this philosophy lies the transformative power of a masterfully crafted carpet. It is with this understanding that we introduce a pinnacle of textile artistry: the Modenese Project collaboration with Sarelli, presenting the exquisite Sarelli Legacy collection of handtufted contemporary carpets.
The Art of Foundation: What Defines the Sarelli Legacy?
The Sarelli Legacy is more than a collection; it is a testament to the enduring marriage of time-honoured technique and forward-thinking design. These are not just floor coverings; they are heirlooms in the making, each one a singular expression of artistry and precision. The soul of this collection lies in its creation process. Each piece is meticulously handtufted by skilled artisans who employ a specialized tufting tool to punch strands of wool or silk into a stretched canvas. This method, while demanding, allows for a remarkable degree of detail and texture, resulting in handtufted carpets of unparalleled quality and durability.
While rooted in tradition, the aesthetic is decidedly modern. These contemporary carpets eschew fleeting trends in favour of timeless elegance, characterized by sophisticated patterns, a refined colour palette, and an innate sense of balance. The designs are intentional, created to complement and elevate a space rather than dominate it, making them the perfect foundation for interiors that speak of quiet confidence and discerning taste.

A Symphony in Texture: The Beauty of Two-Level Carpets
A defining characteristic that sets the Sarelli Legacy collection apart is its masterful use of texture. Many of these exceptional pieces are crafted as two level carpets, a design innovation that introduces a captivating dimension to the floor. By skillfully varying the pile height, our artisans create a subtle topography across the surface of the rug. This interplay of high and low pile catches the light in unique ways, creating a dynamic visual effect that shifts and changes with the viewer's perspective and the time of day.
The experience is as much tactile as it is visual. To walk upon one of these luxury rugs is to feel the gentle contours and nuanced shifts underfoot. This textural depth adds a layer of warmth, complexity, and sensory engagement that a flat-weave rug simply cannot replicate. It is a subtle yet powerful statement, transforming the carpet from a simple decorative element into an interactive piece of floor art that invites touch and closer inspection.
The Ultimate Expression of Self: The Power of Customization
At the core of the Modenese Project philosophy is the belief that luxury lies in personalization. Your space is a reflection of your identity, and every element within it should be a perfect fit. The Sarelli Legacy collection embraces this ethos wholeheartedly, offering an unprecedented level of customization to ensure your vision is realized with absolute precision.
