Jaipur Rugs KIGUMI - Antique White/Blue Rectangular handmade wool rug

Created using Jaipur Rugs’ advanced craftsmanship techniques, this rug embodies the layered warmth of traditional wooden construction.‎ Kigumi is a Japanese wood-joining method in which an innovative interlocking system creates a structure without nails.‎ The textile translates this concept, turning structural logic into a tactile, contemporary form.‎ The inspiration for this rug is drawn from the façade of the GC Prostho Museum Research Centre in Aichi, Japan, which explores how structure changes with perspective and movement.‎ The Chidori wooden joinery system forms a grid that subtly varies in depth and rhythm, never appearing the same upon a second viewing.‎ The FACE collection explores the complex “faces” or façades of Kengo Kuma’s architectural works, highlighting their subtle and captivating fragments, textures, and transitions revealed through light, materials, and nature.‎ As a result, bold colours were not necessary: the collection favours natural, earthy tones—shades of brown, taupe, beige, and grey—enhanced by striking black and white graphic accents.‎ The rugs are available in several colour variations, offering great versatility for contemporary interiors.‎ The use of wool reflects Kengo Kuma’s appreciation for natural materials, while regenerated viscose provides the rigidity required to achieve his innovative three-dimensional designs, showcasing his distinctive exploration of materials.‎ The result is a contemporary aesthetic: a collection designed to last over time and become an integral part of interiors, enriching them for generations.‎ Further info from manufacturer on KIGUMI - Antique White/Blue Jaipur Rugs
