Haru No Hana

HARU NO HANA is a rectangular wool rug.‎Zollanvari Studio’s Ikebana Kyoto creations – a design that looks East to Japan and celebrates colour, nature, life – here takes an exotic turn.‎ All things Japanese were all the rage in the late 19th century and greatly inspired and influenced the Art Nouveau and Art Deco movements.‎ But the flow of inspiration worked both ways since these styles travelled back to Japan and in turn influenced meisen kimonos, which used abstract, floral and geometric designs in sophisticated colour combinations.‎ Persian tribal art meets the art of Japanese textile design.‎
