In Paris Golran is unveiling the final, marketable version of Meteo, the collection designed by Inga Sempé remarkable for its poetic, evanescent use of color and ability to fade out the weft of a carpet until blurred spots appear like ethereal clouds of embroidery.
Inga Sempé: Meteo
Inga Sempé’s carpets for Golran, that will be on view at Maison & Objet next week, are clouds of embroidery in which color becomes an evanescent poetry.

Reinterpreting in a contemporary key the classical Persian carpet, Meteo preserves the gentle, sensitive traits of the French designer, but also some more direct and contemporary ones, balancing between synthetic and artisan forms.
The faded effect of the weft, which makes it possible to obtain a geometric design through blurred lines, is obtained thanks to the skilful artisan technique from Nepal which can give a result similar to that of pointillism, that uses individual coloured threads of wool and silk for each point of the design, as if each knot was the single piece of a mosaic.
The Meteo collection comes in three models with three different designs, each available in different variations of colour: Halo, Mirage and Tumulte.
