Barbara Frua De Angeli has unofficially declared since years a war against beige interiors. Ever since she started designing her own collection of decorative textiles, offered exclusively through the world famous Mimma Gini store, she expressed a true love for exotic palettes, inventing what were considered then audacious colour juxtapositions.

Her works pay homage to Milan's decorative arts tradition in an eclectic fashion, often at crossroads between art and design. She is considered by many as the natural descendant of Giò Ponti, who was also a close family friend. Her signature style combines her careful research for colour nuances that are refined and unconventional at the same time, placing these within an esoteric framework that ooze with elegance. She is the first choice among many of those who appreciate true quality and craftsmanship and who aren’t afraid of living within an interior full of personality.

With the Par terre II Barbara Frua created a collection of custom made flat weaves in jute and cotton, woven in the distinguished dhurrie and sumak technique, following the millenary Indian tradition of carpets destined to adorn the imperial palaces of Rajasthan in northern India.
Sophisticated, unusual, and endlessly appealing.
