This is the Line Burgundy rug from the Nuances collection, a piece made using a special type of felt developed by designer Patricia Urquiola in collaboration with GAN. The novel aspect of this material is stone-like, reminiscent of granite. This model combines a large gray area with stripes in raw wool tones, two shades of pink, and garnet. It is decorated with subtle, hand-embroidered viscose at the seams. It can be combined with the Curve Burgundy and Round Burgundy models, as well as a matching pouf in the same colors, which works as a seat.

The Nuances collection is an innovative proposal by designer Patricia Urquiola for GAN, not only because of its impressive aesthetics, but also because it reinvents an exceptionally versatile, warm and malleable material such as felt. So much so, that the starting point of this collection was to achieve an agglomerate material that would allow wool fibers to be recycled, developing a type of felt with a novel look that could be made in an artisanal way. Nuances was developed, from the beginning, with a sustainability goal in mind, aiming at reusing and giving a second life to leftover materials from other productions, which would otherwise end in landfill or damage the environment.

The stony character of the Nuances collection is the result of research carried out by Patricia Urquiola. The designer devised three geometric rug designs that come in different formats and can be linked with each other to create compositions of large dimensions - even on vertical planes. Complementing the rugs, large matching poufs create an apparent continuous three-dimensionality to the design, with sinuous volumes as if it were a natural landscape.

Nuances, a GAN Spaces collection

GAN spaces are collections meticulously constructed from innovative concepts and artisanal production methods. Suggestive proposals that, stemming from a rug, are capable of bringing to life a whole family of modules and accessories with which to design an environment or “space”. A set of designs linked together, designed to project stimulating and contemporary atmospheres with an open, flexible and casual configuration.
