Baked Ornament Rug By Anima Ona

Baked ornament rug by Anima OnaDimensions: L 130 x H 190 cmMaterials: wool, Grdxkn foamThe Baked Ornament Rug is an abstraction of a traditional hand-wovencarpet and is inspired by oriental patterns. Its three-dimensonal pattern andthe surreal materiality playes with the perception of the viewer and inspiresdreamlike associations while walking over the bubbly pattern.Instead of weaving, the digitally produced pattern is printed directly on tothe fabric with the new textil technology GRDXKN. The printed textil colorexpands through heat and is reproducing the printed pattern like a relief onthe other side of the fabric. It is stabalizing the textile, is giving it a body,a shape and thus prevents it from slipping on the floor. The rug is reversible.anima ona is a design studio established in 2018 by Freia Achenbach (based in Stuttgart, Germany), Carlo Kurth (based in Hirschberg, Germany) and June Fàbregas (based in Barcelona, Spain).Their work focuses on objects, installations and spaces that are mentally stimulating, inspire phantasies and enhance the perception towards materiality and shapes. With their playful and symbolic approach they strive for a higher consciousness in everyday situations and want to make their fascination with nature accessible to others.The trio met at State Academy of Art and Design Stuttgart where they graduated with an industrial design diploma degree. Since 2018 they collaborate in commissioned as well as self-initiated projects.Their different located workplaces play an important and nourishing part of their collaboration, allowing them to implement a wider vocabulary when working together.In 2019 they were chosen as Finalist of Design Parade Hyères at Villa Noailles. Anima Ona´s projects have been exhibited around the world such as Milan, Paris, and Taipei.
