She studied Fine Arts at the San Carlos Art School in Valencia. In 1984, along with 10 other partners, she founded La Nave design studio, a distinctive concept on the national design scene, inextricably linked with a particular period of Valencian design. She stayed with La Nave until it was disbanded in 1991. In 2010 she set up a new studio, El Almudín, with six other partners.
Sandra Figuerola thus reinterprets the motifs of the Ndebele homes, moving them to a textile medium and using a pattern and color palette more in line with contemporary living. The Red model combines garnet, orange, purple, green and ecru tones. The series also includes a Green version, which contains green, blue, gray and black tones. Both are available in two sizes.
Ndebele, a rug from our kilim collection
The kilim is an artisan method of rug making in which the weft is tightly woven on a manual loom, using only threads and no knotting. The result is a light fabric with no pile, similar to that of upholstery. It is a technique that offers great flexibility, a feature that GAN explores thoroughly to create high-impact details.
