What is the story and concept behind the LANDCARPET rug series?
I have always inspired by watching the landscape go by when I fly and thought that it
would be great to transform these impressions into floor covering for your home
How does the design process looks like?
I browse through large areas of various countries via satellite image services to find a
typical landscape, then trace the main features, abstracting and simplifying in the
process to finally expose the essence of the landscape and country that it represents
What scale are your rugs?
They are not in any particular scale or taken from a fixed height. The artistic value is more
important to me then the direct comparison between rugs. In general they cover an area of
serveral hectares.
How did you come up with the name LANDCARPET?
It was a rather obvious choice to me as they are rugs representing landscapes
