Gan Degrade Beige-grey Rug
DEGRADE BEIGE-GREY RUG
DEGRADE BEIGE-GREY RUG
Designed by Patricia Urquiola
The color gradient in this rug, from wine to petrol blue, requires a delicate and thorough process of handmade manufacturing.
The Petrol-Wine rug from the Degrade series is a design by Patricia Urquiola in which the hand-knotted technique is crucial to achieving the subtle transition that turns one color into another, without sudden changes or stark differences.
This is a simple design based on a color gradient that is, however, visually striking due to the vivacious colors at its ends. Therefore, this rug can enrich the color palette of a particularly neutral or warm space.
The series also includes a Beige-Gray model, which subtly changes from beige to light gray tones. Both are available in three sizes and are made entirely with 100% virgin wool.

DEGRADE, A RUG FROM OUR HAND-KNOTTED COLLECTION
The hand-knotted technique is a manual rug-making method that allows for extremely detailed designs, precisely because rugs are made knot by knot. It is a very laborious technique and, consequently, it offers great flexibility. Bearing this peculiarity in mind, we at GAN create hand-knotted designs with both uniform patterns as well as with apparent randomness.
PATRICIA URQUIOLA, AUTHOR OF DEGRADE
Patricia Urquiola is an architect and designer of Spanish origin who settled in Italy after graduating from the Polytechnic University of Milan in 1989. After working with Italian masters of design such as Achille Castiglioni or Vico Magistretti, she founded her own studio in 2001. Since then, she has tackled very diverse projects, from furniture and lighting to ephemeral installations or the integral design of hotels. Her sensitivity to traditional handmade objects and international cooperation in the field of handmade productions led to the start of a fruitful collaboration in 2004 with GAN, which continues to this day.
