Apart from protecting and enhancing local craftsmanship, the Nomad collection is also a tribute to nomadic peoples. Its design is inspired by the minimum of belongings with which these communities move, with which they manage to create comfortable ephemeral environments. For this reason, both this pouf and the rest of the matching elements in the collection are very light and provide movement and deployment as agile as possible, seeking a double nomadism: from one place to another and within the same space.
The idea of its designer, Alejandra Gandía-Blasco Lloret, is that with the sum and combination of the different elements and models of the Nomad collection, relaxed, informal and changing environments can be projected, capable of transmitting that feeling of home and rest that nomadic peoples achieve. And because it's made from recycled PET fibers, Nomad is not only a sustainable collection but also suitable for outdoor use.
The Nomad Tuareg Taupe pouf has a geometric drawing pattern, in beige and white. The other five models in the collection feature other colors and patterns with checkered, triangle, herringbone, wool knitting, and small flower designs.
