Nostalgia and drive

Designed by the Swedish design studio Claesson Koivisto Rune, the rug saw the light of day originally 20 years ago at Helsinki Design Week 2002. Now it has gone through product development process in which its final touch was found from natural dye. The first version was published at Salone del Mobile. Milano 2022, and now we're happy to bring out three more colours into the collection as addition to the original stone-willow: natural-willow, black-natural and warm willow-natural.
"This design (ound its inspiration in music - or rather the uneven musical punctuation to the rhythm (ound in certain kinds o( music", says Eero Koivisto from Claesson Koivisto Rune.
Made of paper yarn, the carpet combines gentle tones of the irregular striping and the neutral base color. The brown paper yarn version is dyed using willow. Using willow as natural dye is an old and well-known technique, but the ecological dyeing is continuously developing to meet the needs and standards of the modern world, so that hopefully one day natural dyes could replace synthetic ones. For Woodnotes the use of willow dye is especially inherent, since the material of the carpet itself is spun from wood.
