Ten years of Punto Pecora

A limited series of blankets and plaids recounts ten years of collaboration between the industrial and graphic design studio Studiocharlie and Lanificio Leo’s ancient Jacquard techniques.

The Punto Pecora fabric has been abstracted from the logo for the Lanificio Leo woolmill: the image of a lamb.

The drawing is pushed to the limits of figurative representation and developed in different scales (S, M, L); it becomes the minimal unit for three fabrics from the same family. The link between the threads and the weaving pattern is reinterpreted technologically: a grid of pixels like a white sheet, which can be drawn on with the language of weaving. StudioCharlie’s project, born on the occasion of ten years of collaboration between the industrial and graphic design studio and the oldest textile mill still active in Calabria, generates fabrics that are contemporary in their colours and patterns, via traditional technology, the Jacquard loom.
