Mae Engelgeer investigates the minimalistic structure of tatami replacing traditional Japanese igusa straw with strips of felted wool, dyed in signature shades. Experimenting with the handloom process, an iconic Indian production technique, natural yarns are woven around the cozy and insulating felt, recreating the suppleness and softness of the tatami mat.
“With the OMOTE collection we are taking my love for this elegant weaving structure with a perfect graphic rythm and shift it in another direction, into our soft world of rugs.” specifies the designer
