This design showcases a singular, abstract concept that explores the geometry of the dot and the line.

On the Design:

This rug is a triumph of minimalist graphic design, distinguished by its sophisticated control of pattern and texture. The core of the design is contained within a central composition of outlined Rectangles—a grid-like structure that anchors the visual exploration.

The pattern is an exceptional study in visual rhythm and juxtaposition. The design relies on the interplay between the crisp, dark charcoal grid and the organically shaped, darker dots that fill the interior space.

This contrast—the tension between the strict, linear geometry of the Rectangles and the soft, expressive diffusion of the dots—generates a dynamic, almost cellular movement.

Achieving this complex layering of pattern and texture in a hand-knotted medium is difficult to achieve, requiring the weaver's utmost precision.

Admirers will appreciate the sophisticated artistry attained through the very exceptional use of a humble palette—relying solely on the tension between the light wool ground and the charcoal thread to create a complex, moving piece. See less
