Beyond religions, temples safeguard millennia, whisper stories, and enchant with architectures that seem to brush the sky. In the morning, the sun’s rays climb the stones of the Brihadeeswara Temple in Thanjavur like a luminous invocation, setting Lanificio Bottoli’s wools aglow with warm orange and blue; and on the weaves of Géneros de Punto Fabrés’ jerseys, geometry dances in sinuous lines, recalling the grace of the Airavatesvara Temple, where every curve feels like a breath carved into stone. Wat Rong Khun in Thailand shines with a purity so white it seems surreal, yet finds in Eusebio Sanchez’s transparent lace the same enchanted whiteness. The cheerful hues of Argomenti Tessili's canvas, interrupted by white, echo the silent rhythm of the statues of Wat Arun, which watch over the river like motionless guardians of the light. Where the walls return to the colour of brick, the Hazara Rama Temple emerges with its architecture of clean lines and harmonious curves, clad in the cottons by Pontoglio 1883 / Tesj Division of Pontoglio, while the golden buttons by Knopf & Knopf International evoke the sacred decorations of the Buddha of Wat Huay Pla Kang, sparkling like small prayers. In the Valley of the Temples in Agrigento, the statue of a Telamon bears the patience of centuries, allowing its deep touches of blue to merge with the beige of the background, echoing the colours by Maglificio Maggia. The cushion and padding by Thermore – Gruppo Fi.Si. converse with one another like two voices upon an altar, recreating the chromatic harmony of the summit of a Hindu temple in cheerful shades. Then, a staircase rises towards the Guishan Guanyin statue in China, its gold gleaming against the pale blue sky, recalling the zip and tape crafted by AyB Hislabor. Finally, on the canvases by Itttai – MinervaHub, grey meets blue in a slow caress: thus is born Bali’s Pura Penataran Agung Lempuyang, suspended between clouds, mountains, and wonder – a temple that seems to breathe poetry.
