Outdoor kilims for vitamin-rich spaces
Jorge Garaje, a Spanish industrial designer, has collaborated with GAN to create the CITRUS collection, composed of kilims suitable for outdoor use. These rugs pay homage to citrus fruits with designs inspired by oranges, limes, and lemons. Handcrafted in India using 100% recycled and reclaimed PET fibres, the CITRUS rugs feature rounded contours and are wrapped in a graphic layer that mimics the traditional mesh found in markets. With an acidic and vibrant color palette in shades of orange, green, and yellow.
“This graphic, at its core, is comprised of two dimensions that complement each other: on the one hand, the sequential and ordered grid pattern, similar to the modular grid of any tiling or pavement; and underneath it, the unpredictable chaos of the arrangement of the fruit on which one walks. In this way, we play with the perception of volumes and different planes of space”
