The Collection

CURB, our latest collection with designer Gill Thorpe, is drawn from the parallel alignment of pavement slabs and paint lines found in unrefined, urban settings.

Each rug from the collection explores the beauty of irregularity - featuring bold borders overlaid onto textural woven backdrops in both flatwoven and tufted rugs. These cityscape influences have been translated into a series of colourways that recontextualise the unpolished inner city aesthetic.

Gradient painterly textures contrast with linear bordered lines to give the tufted rugs depth whilst clean asymmetrical lines reveal an unconventional, flatwoven design.

Breaking Boarder Conventions

CURB breathes new life into traditional bordered rugs, which play the trick of making smaller spaces feel bigger and larger spaces more centered.

With options of muted or bold colour-centric palettes, these rugs allow you to play around with matching or contrasting textures and materials to create a considered space.

About the Designer

Through her exploration of natural and built environments, Gill Thorpe stylistically draws on contrasting lines and fluidity by staying true to the gritty nature of her visual references. Gill explores themes of tactility and surface manipulation to form rug collections that elevates materiality and surface design into contemporary interior spaces.
