Gravel Rug

Description

Looking to the seaside, designer Nina Bruun’s textured rug evokes the look of a broad pebbled beach. Gravel’s weaving technique employs alternating soft loops of tonal wool yarns in varying sizes that are looped into tufts for an uncommon depth. From far away, the surface of the rug appears to ripple with an imaginary breeze, adding tactile intrigue in any setting.

Brand

From lighting and furniture, tabletop to bath, the wide offerings of Menu speaks to this Copenhagen-based company’s guiding quest for functional originality. “It’s about creating aesthetically pleasing designs that evoke true feelings as well as improving processes in people’s daily lives,” says Menu founder Bjarne Hansen. This is also reflected in its stable of influential creatives including Norm Architects, Afteroom Studio, Jonas Wagell and Krøyer-Sætter-Lassen among others standouts.

Menu is just as dedicated to responsible manufacturing as innovation. Working to locate new partners in developing countries around the world, the company searches out local factories or small private co-operations to turn out high quality goods and also provide a better economic foundation for the people involved in that production.
