Last year, the Spanish carpet manufacturer GAN, in collaboration with the talented designer Patricia Urquiola, presented a collection of outdoor carpets that caused a sensation. In 2019 you will surprise us again with an exciting project. Their “Nuances” collection is an excellent example of modern, sophisticated and at the same time sustainable design. Only leftover wool was used in the production of the carpets, which was first mixed and then processed into felt details.
Sustainable design: carpet made of felt with a marble look
Patricia Urquiola has long wanted to make a carpet out of felt. The natural material scores pointsa pleasant feeland can be processed easily. To achieve the attractive marble look that characterizes the carpets from the “Nuances” collection, the designer combined leftover wool with different densities. The result is impressive: the carpet surface is very similar to a marble worktop.
Once the attractive surface was created, the designer continued to experiment with shapes and colors. Geometric patterns and stripes give the carpets a purist look, while stylized waves create a graphic pattern. The three models from the collection are offered with a tone-on-tone upholstered stool. It can be staged effectively depending on the room conditions and your own preferences.
There are three color palettes to choose from
As for the colors, there are three color palettes to choose from. The color “Burgundy” changes from a burgundy red to rosé. The warm nuances loosen up the otherwise puristic look of the carpet. The gray color harmonizes perfectly with the berry nuances and allows them to celebrate their grand entrance as an ensemble.
The “Naiad” design is inspired by a coastal landscape and is presented in azure blue, dark blue and grass green. Since the wave patterns come from the same color family, they work particularly harmoniously together. In this case, gray is again the perfect combination partner.
For “Volcano” the colors of the earth and lava served as a source of inspiration. The black, blue and beige colors determine the modern and at the same time homely appearance of the carpet.
The collection is upGan-Rugsavailable
