On the occasion of Milan Design Week 2018 Lisa Corti presents a new limited edition of tapestries inspired by the decorations of the Royal Palace of Bangkok.

The inspiration was born during a trip to Thailand observing the entire basement of a temple entirely covered with Chinese floral tiles of the '700, something completely alien to the rest of the architecture and decorations of the Palace. Dahlias, hummingbirds, butterflies and vegetal inserts stand out in the center of the tapestry and refer, in the warm tones of pastel colors, to the sweetness of Chinese painting and the sunny shores of the Chao Phraya River. But there is also a reference to the iconic Lisa Corti designs - stripes and damask - that frame the central scene, enhancing and embellishing the whole composition.
