Material

The choice of material in a rug is essential to its expression, tactility, and long-term quality. A rug’s material defines its visual weight and how it interacts with the room’s other textiles. In our selection, we focus on fibres that, through artisanal processing, contribute to form and durability. The collection ranges from coarser to softer natural fibres, with each material adding its own character and function to the space.

Material choice not only affects the rug’s expression but also its maintenance needs. Generally, natural fibres require different care than synthetics. For more detailed care instructions, we recommend reviewing the information under each specific subcategory. Our selection is shaped by producers who combine technical expertise with respect for the material’s origin.

Wool and cotton in interior design

Rugs made from wool are distinguished by their natural elasticity and resilience. The structure of wool fibres makes them resistant to dirt and wear, which makes wool rugs a durable choice. Wool’s ability to retain colour and shape over time makes it a thoughtful option for those seeking lasting quality. In brands such as Nordic Knots and Kasthall, one can see how the character of wool can be varied through tufting and weaving techniques.

For a lighter and more graphic character, cotton rugs offer a different expression. Cotton fibres create a smoother and more pared-back surface, often used in rugs with distinct patterns or simpler constructions suitable for more relaxed environments.

Structure and expression in coarser natural fibres

To add a rawer texture and a distinct structural character to a room, jute and sisal rugs are an obvious choice. These natural fibres provide an earthy and structured base that works well to unify the rest of the interior. Sisal, known for its robustness, and jute, which offers a softer sheen, are often used to define zones in entryways or living rooms where durability and texture are key.
