Rug by GUR

shop · Bonfim · Porto

Traditional Portuguese rag-rug weaving techniques reinvented as limited-edition art objects, made from textile factory waste in collaboration with illustrators and artists.

Célia Esteves grew up surrounded by handwoven rugs on every kitchen floor in her hometown of Viana do Castelo. When she moved to Porto to study, she spent years working at a Fine Arts print studio - and when she later attended an exhibition bridging traditional craft and contemporary design, GUR was the result.
