As temperatures drop, it’s time to enjoy the home more. For this reason, GAN also brings us the warmest proposals in spaces, rugs and accessories. Collections that exalt the work done by hand, slowly, piece by piece, and that this season wants to bring out the work done in the warmth of the fireplace on winter evenings, from knitting to crochet, through embroidery.
Wool becomes the protagonist of the spaces this season. Natural, recyclable and obtained without animal cruelty, it is also an excellent thermal and acoustic insulator. A safe, comfortable and non-slip surface that covers the floor we walk on and benefits our daily lives.
Ancient techniques in contemporary designs
“A rug can bring a room to life and make it more personal”. GAN’s new products for this winter aim to preserve tradition while contributing to the evolution of craftsmanship, which is why they have focused on ancestral techniques with a contemporary approach, which makes you fall deeply in love.
To spread the enthusiasm for handwork and needlework, we highlight Charlotte Lancelot‘s latest creation: CHADDAR. The designs of the traditional Indian bedsheets with which it shares its name refer to the perpetual reinvention of the art of embroidery. Each stitch of CHADDAR gives rise to a different shade of color despite its intentional monochrome, over which the strong texture is perceived with two designs that merge: a linear, geometric one, and another of interwoven herringbone.


While the rugs and poufs in the REVERSIBLE collection update the millenary art of weaving to achieve two finishes at the same time: 100% virgin wool, on the one hand, and linen and cotton, on the other. REVERSIBLE provides a very different but pleasant thermal and tactile sensation no matter what the weather. The wool used offers extra texture and warmth, while daring to show its “double life” through the cotton warp threads and the small linen stitches that structure the weave and the edges. The poufs in the collection stand out for their lightness and the ease with which they can be removed to show the other side of their textiles.

For the design of DREAMS, Brianda Fitz-James Stuart invites us to enter her magnetic and unique universe. The mastery of GAN’s artisans has succeeded in capturing the artist’s sophisticated and delicate strokes using established techniques such as hand-tufted and chain stitch. Classic and modern results at the same time in the two designs of the collection: WHITE DAISY and MEDIEVAL FACES.


If we talk about the inspiration of handwork, we cannot omit one of the most recognized collections of GAN: MANGAS ORIGINAL, by Patricia Urquiola. Inspired by the handmade wool jumpers that grandmothers used to knit, it stands out for the importance of texture and color.
The designer has chosen this collection to dress one of her most special projects: the interior design of Kālida Sant Pau. This architectural space designed by Benedetta Tagliabue is focused on enabling people with cancer and their families, friends and carers to live the cancer process in a pleasant and welcoming environment. MANGAS SPACE, with its combination of neutral and bright colors, is adapted to the peculiarities of Kālida, transmitting dynamic and positive sensations.

In her first collaboration with GAN, the Swedish designer Clara von Zweigbergk wanted to explore the multiple qualities of a technique that is experiencing a real renaissance: crochet. A collection of rugs in unconventional shapes, inspired by traditional crocheted rugs and blankets and the oval mandala-style rugs that remind the designer of her childhood, when her mother taught her to crochet. And now she brings them back, inviting us to relax by appealing to this quintessential homemade craft. THE CROCHET COLLECTION, with its soft wool and exquisite palette of colors brings warmth and comfort to any environment.

In short, the GAN collections for this winter create versatile atmospheres based on redimensions and textures, achieving at the same time the perfect thermal and acoustic insulation in the most welcoming spaces.
