JJ Valaya brings a different take to carpets
![An Asymmetrical Vision](https://magarticles.magzter.com/articles/3287/288460/5b3f21c1270cf/An-Asymmetrical-Vision.jpg)
A tie-up with carpet maker Cocoon Rugs now, JJ Valaya never ceases to surprise. The man himself is nonchalant about it. “You’ll find a lot of couturiers branching out to the home space,” he says. And yet, designing for the floor is so far removed from designing for a body and so uni-dimensional. He dresses brides and designs weddings. But he has designed homes and walls and cutlery in the past. This is just another outlet for his creativity. From dressing brides to dressing weddings, this is not a huge step for him. “I design homes as well, this is in that space.” Working with talent is always exciting,” he says of his tie-up with the brand that has other luminaries like the architect Ashiesh Shah.
