Description

The Sky Calligaris rug, designed by Michele Menescardi, captures the changing colours of the sky at dawn and dusk. Its defining feature is a soft gradient effect in which different tones blend gradually across the surface. The result is an atmospheric design that adds depth and colour without relying on a conventional decorative pattern. Calligaris describes this effect as inspired by the seamless blending of colours in the sky.

Inspired by the sky at dawn and dusk

Sky transforms a simple rectangular rug into a large gradient surface. Darker and lighter areas flow naturally into one another, creating a subtle visual transition.

Therefore, the Sky Calligaris rug can introduce contrast while remaining elegant and understated. The absence of a defined geometric motif also makes the design easy to combine with different furniture styles.

Its gradient appearance works particularly well in contemporary living and dining spaces. Moreover, the changing intensity of colour helps create visual depth beneath sofas, tables and other furniture.

Soft gradient in two colour options

Sky is available in Taupe and Beige. Both options use tonal transitions rather than a single uniform colour.

Taupe provides a deeper, more contrasting appearance, while Beige creates a softer and lighter alternative. Consequently, the rug can be coordinated with warm wood, walnut, ceramic, glass, metal and a wide range of neutral upholstery.

The gradient itself is an essential part of the design. According to Calligaris, the nuanced effect comes from the way the surface is worked to create different visual densities.

Long-pile polyamide surface

Sky features a long-pile polyamide surface with digital print and a black fabric edge. The long pile adds softness and texture, while digital printing allows the gradual tonal effect to extend smoothly across the rug.

This combination gives Sky a richer visual presence than a flat, uniformly coloured rug. At the same time, its rectangular shape keeps the design practical for different furniture arrangements.

Two generous sizes

Sky is available in two sizes:

• W 200 × D 300 cm
• W 300 × D 400 cm

The 200 × 300 cm version has a height of 1.5 cm, while the larger 300 × 400 cm version has a height of 1.3 cm.

The smaller format works well in standard living areas. Meanwhile, the impressive 300 × 400 cm version can define a large seating or dining composition.
