STEPEVI has joined up with Austrian design team Pudelskern to create the Infusion ‘O’ rug, infusing poetry into this already very special product. The poem, Sonnet 54 by Shakespeare, has been woven into the new Infusion ‘O’ rug, using these natural rose-dyed wool yarns, to be showcased at Milan Design Week 2011 with a special installation designed by Carolina Nisivoccia Studio di Architettura.

This impressive installation combining art and design, (it is also a tribute to Boltanski) used the Shakespeare Sonnet as a link for connecting people around the world by involving them in a art performance while watching the carpet, reading the sonnet, and registering their voice.

There are also very high piles of petals for an involving and sensuous experience by walking beneath them surrounded by the strong but pleasant fragrance of roses, touching the softness of the petals, and listening to the ‘music’ of already registered voices who read Shekaspeare’s Sonnet 54.
