ottavio missoni (1921–2013) was a visionary italian designer, famous for founding 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 colors, he transformed textiles into an art form, breaking with the monochromatic conventions of the time. The artisanal quality and sophisticated knitting techniques of his fabrics made his creations unique, characterized by a bold aesthetic inspired by modern art and nature.
over the years, his work also extended to interior design, giving rise to the missoni home line, with rugs, tapestries, and furnishings that reflect the brand's distinctive patterns. Among his iconic creations, the 1991 orion t101 rug is an extraordinary example of his approach to design, where tradition and innovation merge. 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.
