Renesa's brick-like rug collection explores architecture beyond buildings
Renesa has launched a new rug collection called Brick by Brick in collaboration with House of Knots. The collection features hand-tufted rugs designed as geometric abstractions of bricks, reflecting the essence of architecture. It aims to provoke thoughts about architecture beyond traditional buildings, emphasizing the relationship between textiles and architectural concepts.

- ▪Each rug takes between 50 and 60 days to create, using a blend of wool and silk, and is produced by artisans in Bhadohi, India.
- ▪The design merges architectural elements into a single textural plane, challenging the perception of rugs as mere surfaces.
