Description
The Bulevardi rug applies a continuous rhythmic pattern to Woodnotes' paper yarn textile, combining a restrained grid-like aesthetic with natural colour tones inspired by city architecture and light. The paper yarn structure and the selected palette deliver a tactile, nature-rooted expression suitable for residential and light contract interiors.
