Shading with Added Benefits
With its High Performance Textiles, Kvadrat is introducing a new product category: Metallised roller blind textiles that insulate and cool, provide shade and are see-through.
Featuring the delicate, organic irregularities reminiscent of natural surfaces, Braid is made from polyester. Designed by Karin An Rijlaarsdam, the rug is inspired by braiding techniques, crafts and the landscapes of Grand-Bassam, Ivory Coast where she is based. It is the first design in the Kvadrat rug collection.
Braid is made from braided ropes – one thick, one thin. The slimmer rope is stitched in a slightly wavy curve on the thick ropes which gives a beautiful irregularity to the design, then arranged as a spiral for the round rugs, or in rows for the rectangular design, before being stitched into place. To finish, a fine rope is sewn around the rug and the border is refined with a 10 cm wrapping detail on the lower right edge or corner.
The making of Braid results in minimal production waste thanks to its stitching technique. Strong and durable, it is a design that suits both residential and commercial use.
