Product description

290cm x 290cm
New Zealand wool
Limited Edition of 10

This limited edition collection of handmade area rugs is an adaptation of drawings and images by Architect, Artist and Academic, Elena Manferdini.
“Building Portraits” offers a new perspective on our urban environments, exploring elements of Facade, Fenestration and Grids in the context of Mies van der Rohe’s seminal architectural high rises. The Miesian towers are austere, minimalist plinths, found in numerous North American urban centers like New York, Chicago, Toronto and Montreal. Manferdini studied the cross-overs between representations of these buildings as architectural drawings (vector information) and architectural photos or portraits (pixel information). Her abstracted representations of these facades weave these two means of representation together, resulting in a more site-specific and intimate ‘portrait’ of a building.
With this limited edition collection, Elena Manferdini + Urban Fabric present abstracted new rug patterns derived from the inherent grids found within our built environments.
