Nanimarquina Tiles Outdoor Rug

The Tiles collection, designed by Nani Marquina, draws its inspiration from the square and rectangular patterns found in the pavements of public spaces. These square and rectangular modules create an architectural pattern so as to be able to add or take away rugs while maintaining the original combination.

Manufactured using the hand-loomed Dhurrie technique and 100% recycled PET produced in India, Tiles rugs are ideal for places such as kitchens, bathrooms, children's rooms and/or outdoors. This material is very hard wearing, firm and easy to clean as well as having good thermal properties, making it a very useful and convenient collection for outdoor spaces too. At the same time, by using 100% recycled PET, a material produced through the recovery and reuse of polyethylene waste, we minimize the impact caused by the burning of plastic bottles in India.

Nani Marquina

Spain, 1952

Elena Marquina, known as Nani Marquina, was born in Barcelona in 1952. After studying industrial design at the Massana School in Barcelcona, she started working with the architects Sellés-Marquina in 1973. In 1984 she made her first carpets and decided to devote herself to carpet design and set up her company, Nanimarquina, two years later. By 1988 some of her carpet creations were being exported to Germany and Japan. A year later one of her collections was selected for the shop at the Museum of Modern Art in New York.

A superb colorist Marquina finds inspiration not only in nature but also in the challenge of creating something that hasn’t been done before. The designer is also a firm believer that a rug must surprise and captivate but never be too aggressive. The result is her striking depth in materials, ranging from low pile to long strands of felted wool to die-cut rose petals.

Nani Marquina is known internationally for her textiles and rugs, which have been exhibited in New York, Paris, Milan, Berlin, Osaka and Tokyo.
