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.

The EasyMe Collection by RUG STAR is a testament to the brand’s commitment to contemporary design and architectural aesthetics. In collaboration with Portland-based architect and artist Michael Howells, this collection showcases a fusion of art and architecture translated into hand-knotted Persian weaves.

The designs in the EasyMe Collection are the result of Howells’ strong architectural understanding and his ability to guide movement within interior spaces through modern paintings. Each design is meticulously crafted in 9/9 quality using a combination of wool and silk, ensuring a luxurious and refined finish.

While the EasyMe designs may appear effortless and uncomplicated, they are the product of careful thought and masterful execution. They possess a unique ability to seamlessly integrate into any interior setting, effortlessly complementing existing elements and adding a touch of contemporary sophistication.

RUG STAR believes that breaking the rules is only possible when one has a deep understanding of the rules themselves. The EasyMe Collection embodies this philosophy, as each design showcases a harmonious balance between innovation and tradition, creating rugs that are not only visually striking but also versatile and adaptable to various design styles.

With the upgraded EasyMe Collection for the season 20/21, RUG STAR introduces stunning new colorations in RustGreen and SnowSilver, further expanding the possibilities for interior design expression.

At RUG STAR, we are thrilled to introduce the extraordinary MZ Collection, a collaborative project with Mary Zio, a talented artist from North Carolina, USA.

Through close collaboration with Mary, we had the honor of translating her stunning art designs into exquisite hand-knotted Persian rugs, resulting in a collection that encompasses nearly 20 magnificent pieces. Crafted with the utmost precision and using the finest silk and wool, these rugs arrived in Berlin in autumn 2021 and are currently showcased in an exclusive exhibition at our warehouse.

The MZ Collection is a captivating reflection of abstract expressionism, drawing inspiration from the vibrant coloration and artistic movements of the interior world in the 1940s and 1950s. Each rug within the collection embodies the essence of this influential era, combining bold and dynamic designs with a harmonious blend of colors.

In the second generation of the MZ Collection, we underwent a notable shift from focusing on outlining to emphasizing texture. This evolution allowed us to accentuate the intricate details of Mary’s art, bringing it to life in a new and captivating dimension. Each rug within the collection showcases an extraordinary interplay of textures, elevating the overall artistic experience and making it truly exceptional.

To ensure the highest quality, the MZ Collection features a 9/9 Persian knot quality meticulously produced in Jaipur, India. This knot quality ensures durability and longevity, making these rugs not only works of art but also functional pieces for your home or space.

Furthermore, we employed a special surface execution technique known as sandblasting to give the rug’s surface a luxurious velvet appearance. This meticulous process adds a soft and velvety texture to the rug, enhancing its overall visual and tactile appeal.

To further showcase the beauty and artistry of the MZ Collection, we embarked on a brilliant interior shoot production, capturing the essence of these pieces within a stylish Berlin loft. The resulting visual display is a stunning testament to the true beauty and artistic prowess of the collection.

Looking ahead, we are thrilled to announce that plans are underway to bring the MZ Collection on a roadshow across the United States. This roadshow will allow audiences to experience the extraordinary allure of the collection firsthand. We invite you to stay tuned for updates on this exciting journey as we share the dates and locations of the exhibition.

The MZ Collection represents a harmonious fusion of art and rug craftsmanship, capturing the spirit of abstract expressionism while honoring the architectural dimension of rug art in modern architecture. These exquisite rugs, born out of a collaboration between Mary Zio and RUG STAR, epitomize the beauty, creativity, and innovation that lie at the heart of our brand.

Prepare to be captivated by the breathtaking artistry of the MZ Collection as we continue to celebrate its extraordinary beauty and prepare to bring these remarkable pieces to homes and spaces around the world.

After 16 years, we joyfully present the ultimate recomposition of our iconic RUG STAR collection, Splash, in various aspects and qualities. This release marks a significant milestone in the evolution of rug design.

When the Splash collection first debuted in 2002, it broke new ground in our understanding of what rug design could be. The designs within this collection challenged conventional norms and pushed the boundaries of creativity. They were more reminiscent of action painting than traditional rug designs, revolutionizing the industry and captivating enthusiasts worldwide.

However, it was RUG STAR’s visionary approach that truly transformed the perception of rug design. By skillfully blending art and craftsmanship, we reshaped the very essence of what a rug could represent. Through meticulous research and experimentation, we embarked on a journey to redefine the possibilities of rug design, marrying contemporary artistic expression with the centuries-old tradition of rug weaving.

The recomposition of the Splash collection is a testament to our unwavering commitment to pushing the boundaries of creativity and innovation. By harmonizing the stunning and authentic Tibetan weave from our workshops in Nepal with the finest Persian weave from our sources in Rajasthan, we have elevated the collection to new heights.

The result is a resplendent tapestry of colors, patterns, and textures that seamlessly intertwine, breathing new life into these extraordinary designs. With each rug in the recomposed collection, we celebrate the transformative power of art and its ability to transcend conventional boundaries.

As we continue this journey, we invite you to explore the beauty and artistry of the Splash collection. Immerse yourself in the fusion of bold colors, dynamic patterns, and captivating textures that redefine what a rug can be. Discover the unrivaled craftsmanship and the visionary spirit that only RUG STAR can bring to the world of rug design.

I am thrilled to announce the long-awaited arrival of the Cosmic Mameluk Collection in Berlin ❤️. After two years of dedicated development, this collection is nothing short of extraordinary.

As our second hand-knotted collection from Afghanistan, it is truly a stunner. We delved into extensive research and development, focusing on a 45/45 knot count. The result is a collection that showcases the epitome of craftsmanship, exquisitely crafted with the finest rich and elegant wool. The attention to detail and the remarkable colorations in each piece are simply breathtaking.

One remarkable aspect of the Cosmic Mameluk Collection is the realization that silk is not always necessary to create a surface that sparkles and shines. However, it is the exceptional beauty and richness of the Afghan wool that truly sets these rugs apart. Sourced from the highlands of Afghanistan, where sheep graze on lush pastures, the wool possesses a natural luster and depth of color that is unparalleled. It is this exceptional quality that brings timeless elegance and a sense of luxury to each rug in the collection.

Having experienced great success with our NewTribal collection, we are immensely proud and overjoyed to present the Cosmic Mameluk Collection as our second offering, brimming with the unique and powerful vibe that can only be found in Afghani craftsmanship.

Prepare to be captivated by the Cosmic Mameluk Collection! Each rug tells a story through its nine different designs, each more mesmerizing than the last. Explore the stunning colorations that breathe life into these pieces, transporting you to a realm of beauty and wonder.

We invite you to discover the Cosmic Mameluk Collection and immerse yourself in its spellbinding allure. These rugs are a testament to the dedication and passion that goes into creating remarkable works of art. Don’t miss the opportunity to bring a touch of cosmic elegance into your home, with the rich and luxurious Afghan wool as the foundation of these exquisite pieces.

The BlackLabel Collection by RUG STAR presents a remarkable reinterpretation of our top six best-selling designs from the Contemporary Classic Collection, taking them to new heights of artistry and elegance. This range showcases the finest 11/11 Persian knot count, with 65% silk meticulously refined, exemplifying the luxurious nature of these rugs.

In reimagining the traditional color composition process, we distilled our approach into a single, provocative question: how can we create and produce intricate traditional patterns using just one bold color – BLACK?

Our ingenious solution involved dividing the pattern structure into three distinct groups and conveying the full complexity through a carefully curated blend of materials. The collection features 100% wool, a 50% wool – 50% silk mix, and 100% pure silk, creating a harmonious balance of textures. After knotting, we meticulously trimmed the wool sections with scissors to create a high/low texture, masterfully incorporating light and shadow into our modern interpretation. The material’s sheen and the shadow lines of the trimmed pattern elements interact with the room’s light and the viewer’s gaze, offering a captivating visual experience.

This exceptional display of craftsmanship sees the weaver using only three seemingly identical material balls to create stunning renditions of high-end classical rug patterns, highlighting the skill and dedication behind each piece. We are incredibly proud of the achievements made with the BlackLabel Collection, which stands as a timeless classic from RUG STAR, blending tradition with contemporary aesthetics in a seamless fusion of art and design.

The central theme of the hand-knotted rug collection MonoStereo is the right balance of a carpet as an organic textile island within a three-dimensional space defined by a surrounding interior architecture, which is mostly rectangular. Like a small island above the seas, an open textile pile of organic paradigm is raised by 3-5 millimeters above a 2-millimeters-pile of the strong monochrome rectangular frame.
