On Sunday, June 16, 2023, we had the pleasure of visiting the “Enthüllt. Berlin und seine Denkmäler” exhibition at the Zitadelle Spandau in Berlin. It was our photographer, Michael Tewes, who recommended this remarkable exhibition to us, and we were truly amazed by what we discovered there. The Zitadelle Spandau houses a permanent collection of sculptures that were once scattered throughout different locations in Berlin. It was the perfect setting to showcase our new rug sculpture, the “Multishape Splash Galileo Collection.”
Ohh boy, that took me 3 years of consideration now, but now I am more than happy to introduce you to our new RUG STAR picture research and cycles “Epic Berlin”. Our new and audacious campaign embarks on a captivating journey to showcase our hand-knotted rugs and rug sculptures as awe-inspiring contemporary rug art, thoughtfully curated within 12 half-public spaces in the city of Berlin. Building upon our campaign “Intimacy Berlin”, which started in 2015 and ended during Corona in 2020, that intimately displayed our rugs in private homes and artist spaces, “Epic Berlin” now ventures boldly into the realm of half-public spaces, unveiling a new kind of storytelling dimension that ignites imagination and provokes profound thought.
With an ambitious scope, “Epic Berlin” is a meticulously planned visual research project that will unfold over 24 months, from July 2023 to July 2024, encompassing 12 distinct locations that pulsate with the vibrant urban and cultural aspects of the city we are living in. These exceptional spaces, carefully chosen and curated, will serve us as the striking backdrops for our extraordinary collection and stand for their extreme differences, trying to confront and aiming for confirmation, intimately connecting it with the city’s vibrant tapestry, with social and political fragments and spaces that symbolize a progression in context to passing time.
Stepping into the world of public and half-public spaces, our campaign ventures into uncharted territory, engaging the social, political, and historical dimensions that reverberate within these locales. In the compelling saga of “Epic Berlin,” each space serves as a canvas for a thought-provoking confrontation, inviting viewers to immerse themselves in the intricate interplay between contemporary rug art and the surroundings that bear the marks of time and human experience.
In the inaugural chapter, “Epic Berlin” 01, we delved into the enigmatic realm of monuments with profound historical significance, once celebrated in public but later relegated to the annals of time. A testament to the power of art and it’s evolving meaning, these spaces provided a poignant backdrop for our rug sculptures of the “Multishape Splash Galileo” Collection, sparking dialogue and contemplation about the passage of time, collective memory, and cultural heritage.

The Black Label collection is now embracing color! Building upon the success of exhibiting our timeless classical patterns in a single black color, we have taken a further step by introducing bold modern colors. The classical patterns now appear as waterprints in a high/low texture, where we have clipped down the wool parts, leaving the silk and silk/wool sections in a higher pile.
In this new update, we go beyond black and introduce vibrant modern colors. We are shifting the entire black base to a clear alternative color and adding contrasting colors as fringes and checkerboard endings, creating a captivating fusion between the fringe color and the rug itself.
This evolution of the BlackLabel collection invites you to explore the dynamic interplay of colors and textures. It showcases our commitment to pushing boundaries and creating visually stunning and artistically expressive rugs. Join us on this colorful journey and experience the transformation of classical patterns into contemporary masterpieces.

Our latest PalmSprings Collection encapsulates the very essence of a radiant, sun-drenched day in a beautifully designed architectural home amidst the vibrant era of the 1960s in PalmSprings. Drawing inspiration from our beloved Blocks collection, we have infused PalmSprings with a softer, more delicate touch, creating an ambiance that is both nostalgic and captivating.
The carefully curated color palette of PalmSprings embraces pastel tones, resulting in a gentle and ethereal ambiance that evokes a powdery softness. Adding to the allure, we have introduced our innovative SilkLining surface, which has already enchanted admirers in our timeless UrbanLavish collection.
Each rug in this collection is meticulously hand-knotted using the Persian knot technique in Jaipur, known for its impeccable craftsmanship. With a knot count of 9/9, these rugs exhibit exceptional intricacy and detail.
To enhance the allure of PalmSprings, we have incorporated our innovative SilkLining surface, which showcases a harmonious blend of silk linen and wool. In this unique process, the wool parts are carefully rubbed by hand, allowing a linear silk structure to gracefully follow the horizontal lines of the weaving process. This meticulous technique results in a stunning visual effect that exudes sophistication and refinement.
The combination of silk and linen comprises approximately 80% of the rug, ensuring a luxurious feel and enhancing its overall luster. This blend of natural fibers adds a subtle sheen and softness to the rugs, elevating their aesthetic appeal and providing a touch of opulence to any interior space.
In designing this collection, I drew inspiration from the works of Christopher Isherwood’s novel “A Single Man.” I aimed to capture the essence of the home and the ambiance portrayed within its pages, translating it into the surface of each of these beautiful designs. Be tender and thank you Christopher for this marvelous novel.
