Zaha Hadid Design partners with Royal Thai to create carpet collection celebrating Zaha Hadid's legacy |
Zaha Hadid Design has partnered with carpet manufacturer Royal Thai to create a new carpet collection inspired by the work of the late Zaha Hadid. Billed as a celebration of Hadid's legacy, the collection, called RE/Form, made its debut at this year's London Design Festival, and consists of 22 designs inspired by themes - organic cellular shapes, pixelated landscapes, striated lines and ribbon-like projections - featured prominently in Hadid's work. The carpets capture Hadid's notable use of layering and interweaving as well as her use of light and shadow, and are Axminster-loomed and hand-tufted, with a vivid colour palette that includes bold shades of red, green and turquoise. Maha Kutay, director of Zaha Hadid Design, says: "Zaha's product design and architecture have always been connected; some of the earliest projects in the office were designs for products and interiors, with furniture projects being part part of our repertoire from day one."
