Fatboy Colour Blend Rug - / Small - 230 x 160 cm by Fatboy Pink
Description
Fatboy Rug Pink Textile. Dimensions: 230 x 160 cm. Carole Baijings is a Dutch designer who works with a rich, chromatic palette. Exhibited in the most prestigious museums (the Victoria and Albert Museum in London, Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam, etc.), Carole Baijings' work stands out through an extremely balanced use of colours and interplays of graphical lines. Coming straight from a watercolour palette, the Colour Blend rug sports a blend of joyous intensity, remarkable restraint, poetry and geometry. The Colour Blend rug collection started with a few sketches… Designer Carole Baijings randomly drew paint lines over a sheet of paper, and was pleasantly surprised by the colour combinations spontaneously created. "It's impossible to know in advance what the perfect colour combination will be.", explains Carole. "When I'm drawing, I love being surprised by the colours created in the blends: sometimes strong and powerful, other times warm and soft. Together, they form a new whole that is as unexpected as it is logical.". The rugs feature these thick, irregular lines and unpredictable colour palette. As the lines all fuse one into the other, it appears as though other colours emerge from the image. The rug's ultra-soft material brings life to every aspect of Carole's sketches, with soft lines added to the overlaid colours. With each step that you take, the colour changes, making the rug slightly different every time you see it. Powerful, colourful and ultra-soft, the Colour Blend rug is sure to put smiles on faces. Carole Baijings on the use of colours in her work: "Unlike the rules of language in which every combination of words into a sentence tells a story in the end, colour does not have any grammar. All kinds of things have been written on the theory of colours and the way in which they relate to each other and feed into each other. Only music serves as a model for us. Music, which through its ability to create combinations, transgresses all kinds of laws and rules and frees itself as a work of genius. Like a score, I formulate my own colour grammar. Not to forget, I like to constantly shake up the norms, so that materials and colours complement each other and come together to produce a harmonious whole."
