Rosanna Contadini is an Italian designer and the founder of NEO, a brand that creates handmade home decor and accessories using woven rubber.
With traditional craftsmanship techniques, she turns this industrial material into unique design pieces that are soft, velvety, and a pleasure to see and touch.
Rubber is an amazing material, essential in many industries because of its unique properties:
- Elastic – it bounces back to its original shape after being stretched or deformed
- Durable – it can handle pressure, impacts, and wear
- Waterproof – it keeps out liquids and gases
- Insulating – both thermally and electrically
To make it last longer, just keep it away from excessive heat!
NEO uses high-quality rubber, made by a top Italian manufacturer.
This material can be recycled: once shredded, it is reused in road asphalt.
