Trace Rug by Ligne Roset

All of Francois Azambourg's work tends towards the essential, simplicity and lightness. His Trace rug illustrates this approach well : the sketched-out motif seems to have barely scraped the surface of the rug, like a mechanical scribble made with the tip of a pencil. The effect of graphic lightness is reinforced by the contrast between the discreet sheen of the viscose of the motif created using micro-loops and the sobriety of the shaved tufted background in New Zealand wool. Rug with ecru-coloured shaved tufted background with grey micro-looped motif. 70% New Zealand wool / 30 % viscose.
