aterina and Raffaele Fabrizio have an innate sixth sense about textiles. Just as a mariner might read the almost imperceptible ocean currents or shifting wisps of clouds, the Fabrizios are fluent in the language of fabrics. The Milan-based siblings, co-owners and directors of their family-run company, Dedar, earlier this summer opened their first stateside showroom on the 10th floor of Manhattan’s Decoration and Design Building. The 2,600-square-foot space was inspired by mid-century aesthetics and designed by their friend

Raffaele and Caterina Fabrizio, a brother-and-sister team, run Milan-based textile house Dedar. The company has showrooms in Paris, London, Milan, Moscow, and New York.

and collaborator, the celebrated Florentine architect and designer Michele Bönan. The fabrics, illuminated under beautiful lighting, are clearly the stars of the show. Dedar was founded in 1976 in the Italian silk region of Como, and after Caterina and Raffaele took over from their parents, the fabric house expanded internationally, with clients in 80 countries. In 2011, it launched a partnership with Hermès, producing and distributing home fabrics and wallpapers. The Fabrizios have been living in the tactile world of textiles for much of their lives, thanks to parents who took them on travels through eastern Europe, Turkey, and India, among many places, and collected rugs along the way. Caterina, a vivacious woman blessed with lush, wavy hair, said, “I think we have seen thousands of carpets being opened and closed.” Raffaele remembers “the sensation in Anatolia of looking and choosing those fabrics—the sensation and the smell of the wool.” The old patterns of the Anatolian kilims were a mystery. “It was a kind of language that you cannot read— because it is an old pattern that has meaning in the local culture that we loved, but without understanding the meaning … a hidden language I’d say.” Through their travels, the more they saw, and the more they came to understand what was valuable. “Sometimes you find pieces that are part of a typology of carpets but that are very special, so you

Caterina 與 Raffaele 來自米蘭,其家族共同經營 布料品牌 Dedar,該牌於今年夏天首次在美國曼哈頓家 居裝飾與設計大廈十樓設置展示區。展示區由他們的共 同好友與合作夥伴,同時也是知名佛羅倫斯建築與設計 師,Michele Bönan 所操刀,占地 2600 平方英尺的空 間,深具中世紀古典美感;布料因燈光照射而耀熠動人, 猶如秀場上最攝人心魂的明星。 1976 年,Dedar 從意大利科莫(Como)的製絲 區發跡,由 Caterina 與 Raffaele 從家族接手經營後, 原本的當地公司已變成國際企業,顧客遍及八十個國家。 2011 年,Dedar 與 Hermès 攜手合作,負責生產與提 供家居布料與壁紙。 這兩位 Fabrizio 家族菁英的成長過程中,幾乎都 在布料纖維的世界中觸碰人生經緯。他們自幼隨同家人 走過東歐、土耳其與印度各地,一路蒐集氈毯,開啟了 兩人與纖維暢談無阻的契機。 擁有濃密波浪秀髮、活力十足的 Caterina 說:「 我 想我們已經看過數千塊地毯在面前開闔。」Raffaele 則 回憶起身處安納托利亞(Anantolia)揀選面料纖維的 體會:「 充斥著羊毛的感覺與氣味!」以及安納托利亞平 織地毯特有古老而神祕的圖騰:「 那似乎是種你無法辨 識的語言,因為它就像是已然根植於你所愛文化中的符 號,但你卻不知道它的意義——我認為這是一種隱形的 語言。」 足涉千山萬水,目蒐萬物,他們越來越懂得分辨什 麼才是真正有價值的事物。Caterina 說:「 你有時候會 遇見某一種類型的布毯,但這塊毯子卻又顯得不尋常, 於是你會明白其背後的匠師擁有獨到的眼光。價值感有 時就是透過一些不平凡的情形突然發生,比如你特別屬

understand that the person who was behind it had a very special eye,” Caterina said. “Sometimes something pops up which is quite extraordinary—sometimes it’s an imperfection that makes you connect to the piece, sometimes it’s the fact that it is a little bit not symmetrical, or a little bit off the average.” “Something magical,” added Raffaele. The ease with which they travel through cultures has made them uniquely suited to work with their mostly international clientele (only 20 percent is in Italy), with their different, cherished values: refinement and elegance at a premium with French and Italian clients, and comfort in the United States, according to Caterina. Raffaele is an architect by training, and he joined the family business when he was 29. “I tried to fight my destiny but I lost,” he joked, adding, “I thought there was a good seed that could be grown.” Caterina studied international relations, but when she started supporting her parents when they asked for her help, she became instantly hooked by the possibilities, from both creative and business perspectives. Dedar’s technical expertise is renowned. The textile producing process is highly complex and fragmented, and the company creates its own textiles, working with Como-based experts specialized in different tasks along the way—making for an enriching exchange, Caterina said. Combining beauty and function, their textiles are highly sought after.

It’s something that touches your eyes, and at the same time something that has to do with dreams, with imagination, with the visual memory of patterns. Fabrics activate so many things at the same time.” —Caterina Fabrizio, Dedar
