Spanish artist and industrial designer Jorge Garaje (Guadalajara, 1991) is, by his own definition, an "objector of ideas": not only capable of materializing them in objects, but also of questioning them through his pieces. With this approach, he endows his work with a marked irreverent character that is not exempt from care for the raw material and attention to the craft process, fundamental in his pieces. After studying Fine Arts and Engineering in Industrial Design, he graduated from the Superior School of Design in Madrid, the city where he lives and develops his professional performance. He combines his work in teaching, (he has been a professor at the Istituto Europeo di Design, in addition to giving lectures for other centers and universities); with his profession as a lighting designer in a well-known multinational.
Made with PET fibers, the Lime kilim is particularly suitable for outdoor environments. Ironically, the nets for citrus fruits are also made with these same fibers. The Lime is handcrafted on traditional looms, and its creation is a laborious and complex process due to its multiple color changes, large dimensions, and irregular format. With its acid and vibrant colors, the Lime kilim is capable of adding a cheerful and summery note to any outdoor space. It is a piece that belongs to our Citrus collection, which includes two other models representing a lemon net and an orange net.
