Andrea Trimarchi (1983) and Simone Farresin (1980) are Studio Formafantasma, an Italian designers duo based in Amsterdam,The Netherlands. Their interest in product design developed on the IM master course at Design Academy Eindhoven, where they graduated in July 2009. Since then, Formafantasma has developed a coherent body of work characterised by experimental material investigations and explored issues such as the relationship between tradition and local culture, critical approaches to sustainability and the significance of objects as cultural conduits.

The added nuance for the duo is that they do so with an eye to the historical, political and social forces that have shaped their environments. Their work has been presented and published internationally and institutions such as New York's MoMA, London's Victoria & Albert Museum, New York's Metropolitan, the Chicago Art Institute, the Stedelijk Museum Amsterdam, MUDAC Lausanne, the Mint Museum of Craft and Design in North Carolina and the MAK Museum in Vienna have all acquired Formafantasma's designs for their permanent collections.

In March 2011 Paola Antonelli of the Museum of Modern Art in New York and esteemed design critic Alice Rawsthorn listed their studio amongst a handful of practices that would shape the future of design. Andrea and Simone are lecturing and heading workshops in various Universities and Institutions.

Nodus' parent company, Il Picolo, is one of the major Italian players in the design and refurbishment of interiors.

Il Piccolo was born as a family business with tapestry at the core. The craftsmanship has always been of the highest quality with extreme attention to detail; this continued care has gone hand in hand with the company's growth. A company with its origins firmly rooted within the traditions of local craftsmen from Brianza, but never afraid to explore new ideas and passions. Their home and main showroom is in the heart of Brera, always in contact with the changing world of design, fashion and art.

Never afraid to surprise or even shock by keeping the focus on innovation rather than imitation and by collaborating with talented and often avant-garde artists who have developed their own creative vocabulary the Nodus collection is unique, instantly recognizable and highly prestigious.

Each rug is custom-made to order, handwoven, knot by knot by some of the best ethical producers in the world (guaranteed by GoodWeave International, formerly known as Rugmark), handpicked based on materials used, techniques mastered and above all the expertise of their craftsmen.
