On the design:

Admirers of the craft may admire our Swedish flatweave rug with an exemplary blend of undyed, natural yarns complementing the varied hues with a striated, abrashed look. This subtle intricacy both brings out the movement and pays homage to a traditional Scandinavian weaving technique alike. Here, a play of light gray and blue stripes underscores the concept at work, where the sense of movement born of subtle size and scale variations creates that gradient in the pattern—a fabulous and bold idea that still sits comfortable in a variety of spaces keeping up with the “Swedish Minimalism” foundation of this aesthetic in its earliest days. Connoisseurs may admire this proprietary technique of ours that both innovates and honors mid-century weaving techniques inherent to Scandinavian style.

Our flatweave’s more durable, weighted body is also a hallmark of the collection, made for high-traffic and heavy-furniture spaces. This, alongside several elements detailed here, represent R&K Principal Jahanshah Nazmiyal’s hope to honor this mid-century modern aesthetic. His Scandinavian Collection is a contribution to that style, and a renaissance for its designs with more comfortable, current techniques. less
