The Squash rug is handmade and is available in different sizes and a range of colors. The dyeing process and use of natural fibers replicate the hand-painted design as faithfully as possible, while the plush fleece and subtly blended threads evoke the nuanced look of brushstrokes. All in accordance with the highest standards of sustainability.
Softness, boldness and fun all in the one collection: Squash, designed by British artist Faye Toogood, captivates with its flippant nonchalance, starting with its playful and sensual name, reflecting a soft and sculptural approach to design. The collection is comfortable and cozy right from the first glance. Exuberant and bold, yet gentle and reassuring forms interact with a mix of soft and rigid materials. The flowing contours and soft padding disrupt the static essence of formal furniture. Traditional English folk elements are reworked and combined with 1970s influences. Squash suggests a notion of simple, contemporary elegance based on unique objects that work well alone, together, or combined with other furnishings.
