one of it's kind

woven art

Designing one-off rugs for exhibitions is a task Urd loves, where she can push boundaries and have complete artistic freedom. Sometimes starting with a freehand sketch, she allows the lines to take on a life of their own, before developing a more conceptual, concrete form. The next step is defining each rug’s characteristics – considering the design in terms of material, structure and pattern to create a unique work of art.

the natural way

Apertus’ considered use of colour and materials enabled Urd to work with natural nuances that came to life in the yarn. By exploring new structures and compositions, subtle patterns and colour contrasts emerged – a process that Urd found very satisfying. Another rewarding element was the focus on sustainably produced materials – opting for organic warp and RWS wool where possible to help push the industry towards more responsible production.
