Monsieur Tricot x Tribù

Monsieur Tricot is the first knitted weatherproof lighting that merges modern structures and subtle reflections, resulting in a sophisticated appearance, which creates a warm and stylish atmosphere.

The expertise in innovative knitting acquired through years on the top of the field is clearly reflected in the collection, which combines different shapes, textures and colors that can be creatively mixed to create a striking look for terraces, living room and bedroom where everyone can give their personal touch.
