tasili rug

The Tasili rug is a design by Sandra Figuerola with a marked graphic aesthetic. Its pattern alternates crosses, points and triangles with sinuous or geometric motifs, generating an attractive symmetrical composition in black and white that evokes certain drawings of lost civilizations - hence its name, in reference to those drawings found in Tassili, Algeria.

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.

With Tasili, graphic designer Sandra Figuerola has turned references of ancient ethnic paintings into highly schematized strokes of contemporary aesthetics. The perfect symmetry is subtly interrupted on the sides with two contrasting-pattern stripes. It is available in three sizes.

Anti-slip underlays are an easy to install solution to improve the care of your rugs. They prevent friction and wear and tear, prolonging the rugs useful life and keeping them well ventilated by preventing direct contact with the floor. Custom sizes are also available by calling the hive showroom.
