We thought of each rug as a building with its own narrative and history. For example, we envision the wild fuchsia and scarlet “Comb” shag rug as a pink stucco Art Deco co-op enveloped in bougainvillea.PROCESSWe partnered with legendary family-run Indian weaving studio V-Weave, working closely with their team of master-weavers to interpret our paintings into hand-dyed and hand-tufted rugs. It takes 3-4 months to weave each rug.   More on our ︎blockshoptextiles.com
