Rugs for an Interior with Sustainability and Wellbeing at its Core

This bespoke rug was designed specifically to fit the scheme set out by Basha Franklin Design for Myo St Paul’s workspace.

We created a series of tufted ombre rugs to add comfort to the collaborative nature of the communal areas and meeting spaces.

Each rug was circular, the ombre effect creating a calming gradient melding two tonal colours to complement and tie in the surrounding furniture.

Working to create adaptability in the everyday working routine, the rugs were fitted with specialist cut outs for power boxes so that employees aren’t restricted to where they can use their laptops. These were installed onsite to ensure a seamless fit without compromise on the clean cut finish.

Using a localised design concept, specifically around Spitalfields with its rich history of silk manufacturing, the finishing fabrications are colour coded to help the users of the space navigate around the three floor fit-out. This is where bespoke colours play a crucial part in the identity of the space, which serves as a deeper guide for users beyond aesthetics.

Each rug was tufted using hand dyed yarns with a tufting gun in circular motion to ensure a gradual transition between colours, cementing a sense of community through a collaborative and comfortable communal area right at the forefront of the space.

With the aim of developing the business tech company Cognizant away from a satellite way of working and into a unified space, The Furniture Practice worked to create a dynamic and flexible workspace fit for adaptability.

Sustainability holds a common thread throughout the furnishing pieces, in keeping with BREEAM Outstanding ratings (a leading environmental rating for master planning based on lifecycle stages). By working with the old office furniture TFP worked to reuse and repurpose existing pieces resulting in 40% of the furniture within the new space being reused or recycled.

Design From Scratch

Sometimes the simplest idea is all you need to go bespoke, this case study is a great example how you can use a two colour gradient to enhance an interior scheme.
