Studio Tucan

Studio Tucan

The brief was to translate one of an illustrator's artworks into rug form for an exhibition opening at the Tel Aviv Museum in two weeks, running for several months after. We tufted the piece in two heights, using shaved edges to separate and define each color. Landing on the right shade took real searching — we chose from around ten dyed samples before finding the exact tone the studio had in mind.

Hand-shaved edges define each shape; varying pile heights separate one color from the next
