Caturegli and Formica approach a mysteric-scientific dimension of carpets, interpreting them as deep genetic diagrams or the memory of faraway superficial tracks (villages, or tires). Their carpets reflect on the permanence of decorative motifs within the diagrams that reveal the logic of nature, science and technology. The design of the Acid-base carpet was inspired by a color scale composed out of litmus paper that measures the acidity of liquids.
