Contemporary rug Lattice

plainplaidNew Zealand wool

To simulate the effect a woven rug in the design Lattice, we have combined loops of thick New Zealand wool with fine loops of Belgian Linen. The colours are very close variations of each other, to make the design more soothing and to make it blend into your interior perfectly. The linen strokes and cubes form a subtle grid, also called a ‘lattice’, within the thick wool base. The contrast of these two materials gives the design extra depth and richness. We actually don’t dye our thick wool yarn; we love to keep the beautiful natural tone of the wool visible. Because of this, there might be small variations in colour. The thinking behind this collaboration between JOV and John Pawson was to produce a collection of tufted rugs with the structural appearance of woven rugs, through the specific application of pattern. The designs use repeating elements that, in conjunction with material choices, allow structural patterns to become the dominant partners to graphic patterns.
