The Nomad collection is a design by Alejandra Gandía-Blasco Lloret inspired by the minimum of belongings with which nomadic peoples move. The idea is that with the sum and combination of its different elements and models, ephemeral spaces can be created capable of providing a feeling of home and rest, in the same way that nomadic communities achieve.
On the other hand, Nomad's fabrics are a tribute that protects and highlights the legacy of a local craftsmanship, since its patterns are based on native and traditional models found by the GAN team in different areas of India during the research process that allowed us to test how recycled PET fibers behaved on a manual loom. Made from fibres from post-consumer plastic waste, Nomad is not only a sustainable collection but also suitable for outdoor use.
The Nomad Inuit Pink pouf has a herringbone pattern in pink. The other five models in the collection feature other colours and patterns with checkered, triangle, knitted wool, small flowers or geometric designs.
