Phase Initial phase
Key role Hands-on creation of physical samples on the loom, spinning yarns, develop various pattern and color designs to choose from and market research. Creation of sample requests for the producers visualizing the ideas and concept digitally as well as acting as a guideline for production.
Product description Fleece has random splashes of colour on a natural background, reminiscent of the colour markings of sheep. No shearing is used in the production of this hand-knotted rug. This gives the fleece an irregular surface which, combined with a double-wash finish that opens up the pile, creates a soft surface reminiscent of natural fleece. The difference between the colourways is the base colour: each base colour refers to a typical sheep colour.
Project "Braid"
Category Home - Rugs
Collaborator Kvadrat
Period 2019-2021, launched in 2022
Phase Initial phase
Key role Hands-on creation of physical samples with different sewing techniques and market research. Creation of sample requests for the producers visualizing the ideas and concept digitally as well as acting as a guideline for production.
Product Description Braid is made from braided ropes - one thick and one thin. The thinner rope is sewn onto the thicker ropes in a slightly wavy pattern, giving the design a beautiful irregularity. They are then arranged in a spiral for the round rugs, or in rows for the rectangular design, before being sewn into place. Finally, the rug is trimmed with a fine rope. The border is finished with a 10cm wrap detail at the bottom right edge or corner. Thanks to the stitching technique, there is very little waste in the production of Braid.
