The Blanket carpet is made out of old woolen blankets, cut in strokes, glued together with a Latex backing on Cotton Jute.

Therefore the patron and the colors are always different. Each blanket is unique.
The carpet is designed in 2007/ 2008. It revers to brain structure , a flowing mass, a spot in the living space. In our design we examine the possibilities to use existing material at another way and to transform, so that products with a new meaning will arise..

Rare Free-Form Table by Sculptor Knut Hesterberg, Published
By Knut Hesterberg
Located in bergen op zoom, NL
This beautiful and elegant free-form table by German sculptor Knut Hesterberg was produced by the German company, Ronald Schmidt, in very small numbers during the short period of 1974-1975 and so is very rarely seen on the market. The sculptural base is made of pressure die cast aluminium.
This design is published as Figure 30 in Belloli's monograph on Hesterberg's work entitled "Knut Hesterberg, Skulptur and design" by Carlo Belloli, Milan, Italy which was published in 1983. A copy of the original page documenting this table will be provided to the buyer. (please see image 4).
Knut Hesterberg is a world famous German sculptor who started his career at the graphic arts and design studio in Zurich, Switzerland where he came into contact with the architect and artist Max Bill who had a great influence on his future work. He has exhibited his sculptures all over Europe and many of his large scale sculptures are permanently installed in public spaces throughout Germany and a few in Italy (please see image 10 for an example) . In the late 1960s he was asked to design a series of limited production sculptural form tables...
