The architecture of color: a sensory ascent toward the sky of Nepal
The ASCENSE collection, created by the Arnau Reyna studio, proposes a stimulating visual game that transforms the surface of the rug into a dynamic experience of depth. Inspired by the sobriety and spiritual connection of the landscapes of Nepal, the designers use geometry and color transition to deceive the human eye, creating the illusion that the fabric rises like a ramp toward the horizon.
The concept is divided into two chromatic universes: Earth and Water, which evoke the solidity of the mountains and the clarity of the skies reflected in their lakes. Through gradient stripes that intertwine rhythmically, a balance of light and shadow is achieved that guides the gaze and generates serenity. Integrated into the GAN EDITION line, this series represents a technology of artisanal precision that projects centuries-old expertise into the future

“We wanted to play with the perception of the human eye to create gradients that look like ascending ramps; a way of elevating ourselves through chromatic richness”
