Milan-based design duo [Studiopepe](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/silos-collection) create the new Relevo rug collection for [Muuto](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/muuto-1). It is full of hand-tufted wool rugs that boast a structural design language. Intricate attention is paid to the rugs, ensuring that the dimensions are right through the choice of color and textures.

The artful new capsule is derived from the word 'Relief' in Latin as the Relevo capsule is made from New Zealand wool that has been trimmed with fine detail to create differing levels. It also is made with unique widths that come together and result in [dynamic geometric shapes and graphic patterning](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/discorectangle). It represents the look of raked sand or gravel that is often seen in a traditional Japanese karesansui garden.
