SUPER-Minimal
Step into the vibrant world of RUG STAR’s latest offering: Collection SUPER-Minimal, launching for the autumn 2024 season. Like the bold stroke of a brush on a vivid canvas, this collection seamlessly merges contemporary modern painting language with the timeless artistry of rug design.
The name “SUPER-Minimal“ comes from these two topics below:
Minimalist Design: The Collection „Super-Minimal” is tailored to modern interiors, emphasizing simplicity and elegance. This minimalist approach is a core aspect of the collection, reflecting the “Minimal” part of the name.
Bold and Vivid: The term “SUPER” signifies the collection’s boldness and vibrant energy, much like a striking brushstroke on a canvas. The collection’s designs are not just minimal but also supercharged with dynamic color combinations and rich textures, elevating them beyond typical minimalism.
Embrace the essence of sophistication with our sleek, minimalist designs, tailored to elevate your modern interior and architecture. Each piece embodies the organic allure of a fresh hand brush on canvas, creating a captivating narrative within contemporary spaces.
Crafted with meticulous attention to detail, our textile fields are 100% sustainable, utilizing only natural fibers such as high-end silk and premium wool sourced from the Bikaner area. Experience the soulful embrace of these meticulously crafted rugs, each one charged with identity and imbued with centuries-old craftsmanship.
In the Collection SUPER-Minimal, we introduce a mesmerizing color combination of coral and tile, set against a natural background of sand or natural wool in beige and grey. These hues emerge as the color highlights of the next season, drawing inspiration from the harmonious blend found in nature.
Our approach was to seamlessly merge these two color areas by employing a masterfully composed graduation of old ancient rug techniques. This technique creates an illusion of movement and flow, accentuating the design with an extra twist of brilliance. The use of silk adds a subtle shimmer, allowing the rugs to reflect the ambient atmosphere and light at their best.
Discover the intersection of art and functionality with RUG STAR’s Collection SUPER-Minimal—where every rug is not just a piece of decor, but a statement of refined taste and conscious living.

BlackLabel – A Colorful Transformation of Classics
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.

Rise and shine, beautiful world!
Let’s put the spotlight today on our RUG OF THE WEEEKKKK – and focus on what might be the most refined skill we’ve developed over the last 25 years: customisation.
At RUG STAR, it’s all about adapting our designs to create truly one-of-a-kind pieces that align perfectly with your interior. We play with size, color, material – and even the design itself – to make sure each rug becomes an integral part of your home’s story. This passion for customization might come from my background as an architect – I see the potential within the production process and I love to optimize every detail until it fits like a dream.
In this week’s episode of RUG OF THE WEEEKKKK, I’m writing to you from Kathmandu, Nepal, where I’m visiting our local partner – the incredible family around Dolma Lob Sang and her company Reliance. She’s truly one of the best I’ve met in the industry.
Our shared specialty? Storytelling patterns. Together, we craft dreamscapes using the wonders of flora and fauna, turning them into lush, visual narratives. The result is our beloved collection: EDEN – a paradise woven into pattern.

And here we go, proud, happy and more than excited to introduce you all to our Tsukden project we started a year ago and now finalize up in the deep mountain areas of the Himalaya at the Mount Everest. So much joy we found and shared and I hope our RUG OF THE WEEKKKKK can share the same with you. The Tsukden technique is may be easiest to be named as village rug the Tibetan always produced as soft easy surfaces, not only to be used as rugs, but also as sleeping bags or even cloth to be warm on these extrem high altitudes. Since 25 years the product I learned to work with is the city rug, more complex and finer in knot technique and with the help of the Red Cross it is now known all over the world, as the Red Cross opened 1961/62 the first rug workshop in a Tibetan settlement to preserve heritage and teach the Tibetans in exile how to use their heritage to create a living out of it. We went to this workshop and finished our Tsukden project where 1962 everything started. Let us share with you the joy of the journey and embrace together the beautiful which can be found all over the world in craftsmanship and with the artisans keeping this craftsmanship alive. Thanks to everyone being involved in this project. It’s one of the greatest projects I experienced.

Namaste and good morning, beautiful people and most beautiful world!
I am here in Kathmandu, Nepal, in the Tibetan district of Bouda, visiting my dear friend and work partner, Dolma Lobsang. RUG STAR has been collaborating with her company, Reliance, for 17 wonderful years, building a shared DNA filled with values, friendship, and loyalty.
My last visit was almost exactly a year ago, and in that time, Dolma has invented a new product—using the finest leftover high-end materials in wool and silk from our one-of-a-kind custom pieces, produced globally for the homes of our clients.
Today, I am beyond excited to introduce a stunning new episode of RUG OF THE WEEEEKKKKKKK, featuring her latest creation! These pieces embrace simple, plain patterns, yet they are infused with these unexpected, luxurious leftover materials—creating a result as breathtaking as beauty in nature itself. Fresh, unpredictable, yet following a formula of beauty to the max!
Come, see, and enjoy this new product with us, and be as captivated as I am by these stunning surface reflections of the so-called hand loom pieces. Each one is crafted with the finest materials and the deep knowledge of artisans here in Kathmandu, Nepal.
Let’s embrace and celebrate the essence of sustainability and quality—because these are the most exquisite flavors in the art of hand loom production.

Amala’s Tsukden for Benita Koch-Otte
First working day in Kathmandu, Nepal 🇳🇵 – filled with love, joy, and a beauty that exceeds my wildest expectations.
Moritz and I traveled here to document the process of composing 100 textile fragments, all knotted in the traditional Tibetan Tsukden technique. A Tsukden is a simple yet refined village weaving, created with the intention of making warm and soft textiles—used for floors, blankets, and even clothing.
50% of the fragments follow traditional Tibetan designs, while the other 50% reinterpret the works of Bauhaus artist Benita Koch-Otte. Our goal is to create three compositions for a 2026 exhibition, honoring her legacy.
A year ago, I showed Amala Benita’s designs and asked her to share them with the weavers. I saw a natural connection between Bauhaus aesthetics and the Tsukden tradition. And now, here we are—witnessing the stunning results. This is a celebration of beauty, craftsmanship, and the joy of creation.
Tomorrow, at dawn, we take two jeeps towards the Mount Everest base camp. In 1959, Amala fled Tibet, crossing the Himalayas to escape the Chinese invasion. We will follow her journey and visit the first rug workshop, founded in 1961 by the Red Cross. There, we will complete our final composition—the centerpiece of the exhibition, honoring Amala’s heritage and her connection to Benita Koch-Otte’s design philosophy.
This story is just beginning. Stay tuned and celebrate with us the timeless beauty of textile craftsmanship.

It’s cold outside, so let’s get lavish inside!!! This week I will introduce to you our Contemporary Classic Collection Aubusson. It is referring to the rug manufacturers in France in the 17th and 18th Century and is a great example how in the period of Baroque and Rococo the interior was synchronized with the stucco of the architecture. I love the centered structure of the design and their lavish expression to harmonize in the design elements taken from nature and architecture. And as my English is very week, of course my Frech is even worst. Sorry for that, we try to communicate without boarders 😂 #rugstar #rugoftheweek

Reduced to the max and super powerful. Always one of my favorites, THE BLACK LABEL Collection. A selection of the strongest classic designs which we reduce and finally convert the pattern to a kind of watermark to only give a slight quote of heritage in contemporary interior and architecture. We reduced patterns which in general need 8-16 colors to show their various details in the complexity of the design into only one color: BLACK- but use three different material mix and also use a high low technique to give a tender quote towards the historical pattern. Love love love this reduction and the tender poetic quote it creates. #rugstar #rugoftheweek

Rise and shine my beautiful world and let me talk today about KISSMARKS in our hand knotted Ikat Collection and with that, welcome again to an other episode of our RUG OF THE WEEEKKKKKKK. The KISSMARK concept are carefully added embroideries which we had after a hand knotted rug is totally finished and we like to increase the individual character of that specific piece. Mostly I use same silk color as I used in the fringes, so it gives me the chance to put some little extra highlights into an existing composition. It’s the concept to layer one more process of attention and considerations on the surface of a hand knotted rug. I love the option to give the surface one more option to be shifted and to give it the final look for my clients homes. The foundation is always the warp and weft, but after that, there are so many options to build the design same as giving rooms in architecture the final interior. We consider and we layer knowledge and joy into each process, the result ate unique masterpieces of hand knotted rug art, representatives of the beauty of craftsmanship. We never get tired to make it work and to increase beauty to its maximum. #rugstar #rugoftheweek

Good morning lovely world, rise and shine and be ready for a new adventure of RUG OF THE WEEEKKKKKK, this time reflecting the topics “transforming and vibrating” as this is a mantra I am aware of when we try to bring historical patterns back into modern interiors, so they can gear perfectly with the changes in architecture and general shifts in surfaces of homes and also with the always changing in perception. Historical patterns give us confidence as they are like an ⚓️ in our interior and quote history and time that been passed, quote the question of heritage and give confidence if time in some moment runs to fast. But to make the historical patterns gear, we constantly need to shift them slightly to achieve that match with now. We need to shift so it can be seen and appreciated. That transformation is an exciting process, as everything and everyone needs slightly to shift all the time to gear and sparkle and stay alive. Love my heritage of the hand knotted rugs so much, it slowly became my dna. #rugstar #rugoftheweek

Rise and shine beautiful world and let’s again embrace the beauty of craftsmanship at its very best. Today I will introduce you to my latest product development for season 2024/2025. The PARTIAL-SHAGGY surface, where we used a raw 8/6 knot in the background in 100% wool, but highlighted special and tender parts of the design with a high pile silk, so these is a second layer to creat tender islands within the rug, which gives a stunning sculptural effect and plays so beautifully with the light and guides different the view when it flows over the surface. An other very exciting product to present to you and the final puzzle piece for the collection 2025. So let’s jump into this new product range, as I think it’s stunning and fantastic and beautiful and yummy to walk on it. I say thank you as always for attending RUG OFFF THE WEEEEKKKK. #rugstar #rugoftheweek

Rise and shine and be beautiful again my little awesome world 🌎- the summer finds its end and we love to use this tender light, so this week our RUG OF THE WEEEKKKK extended to a graden visit, a very important element of my private home in Berlin. 6 years ago when I moved in, it was a parking lot and not a single plant was growing there- during that time I gave my best with the help of all my friends to convert it into a calm and tender paradise, filled with fruits and more and more with constant change by colors playing a composition like mostly music does. Summer 2024 was special, we invited South African baed ceramic artist @benorkin to create for us a garden installation: Hey Paradise, where is Mr HE and Mrs SHE. Who needs more answers need to visit me and with that the home of RUG STAR. Come and see, come and feel and yes, again a little more of my privacy to make you understand the way we truly feel and how we try to be donated to beauty and quality with our belief in STORYTELLING. Enjoy the garden and the little new shift in our Garden and with that I say: GARDEN OF THE WEEEEKKKKK. Let’s see how this will change our storytelling with the reel of next week, all is of constant development. #rugstar #benorkin #rugoftheweek #gardenoftheweek

PalmSprings – Under the spell
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.
