Joa Herrenknecht: Isla

Joa Herrenknecht presented at D3 Contest, Imm Cologne 2014, a carpet based on clear geometric shapes combined in gentle colors, hand made in Portugal.

The Isla carpet consists of clear geometric shapes: triangles, squares and lines playfully combined with gentle, warm colors to form an island made of soft wool.

The carpet design is based on a discreet grid which the designer has skilfully assembled in the style of a collage. Part of the pattern is shaved into the rug by hand to give the geometrical pattern tangible depth and play with perceptions of light and color.
