Ängsmark Swedish Woven Wool Rug, Seven Sizes in Six Color Variants

Ilse Crawford was originally a magazine editor for British Elle Decoration, which she introduced in 1989. Serving as an international decorating tome, it combined modern furniture with personal creativity. Eventually turning towards interior design, Crawford's projects began with her London loft and the Soho House in New York. Her design aesthetic is shaped by functionality and lifestly, placing an emphasis on the emotional value of objects and the surrounding interiors. "When I look at making spaces, I don't just look at the visual. I'm much more interested in the sensory thing, in thinking about it from the human context, the primal perspective, the thing that touches you." Crawford's London office, Studioilse, encourages sustainability thorough collaborations with local artists and manufactures.

Since 1889, the Kasthall Design Studio in Kinna, West Sweden, has created rugs for all kinds of clients and spaces; from beautiful residences, lux yachts, and exotic hideaways to cool offices, boutique hotels and the Swedish Royal Castle.

In an increasingly standardized world in which products are mass produced, painstaking handwork is more and more rare. However, this is what Kasthall represents: time for reflection, a longer perspective. Kasthall have been producing exceptional rugs, carpets and runners for over 130 years. They are united by a passion for the task: to create a rug that is unique, durable and irreplaceable.

Kasthall is about transforming a vision into a realistic design solution for the floor. To create a Kasthall rug, there are several ingredients; high expertise and craftsmanship, the finest natural materials in the world, and exceptional design understanding. Every step and every rug is guided by two motivations: perfection and passion.
