ODC Dot & Line Design: Note Design Studio

Dot & Line is a collection of handtufted rugs designed by Note Design Studio.

When Note chooses a rug for an interior, they often want it to be a visual base for a scenario. It can be more or less detailed or graphic, but it’s a plus if the surface is quite even and has an equal expression all over.

Note started looking at the hand tufted technique, and were aiming for a thick, generous quality, in natural wool. The hand tuft chosen for this collection is a mix of different yarn lengths and colours, and it has a fantastic, totally unruly structure.

On top of this quite basic expression, Note wanted to add a bold but simple pattern, such as lines, squares, or dots. In the end, Note fell for a scattered pattern of dots that are quite big and colorful, and lines in a pattern of squares that appear to float unevenly on the surface depending on how the yarn falls. The rugs are quite well- defined in their expression but at the same time they work as a foundation to any decoration you place upon it. Bold and basic, at the same time.
