40 Years Ago Area Rug
40 Years Ago Area Rug
This series of rugs is adapted from the meticulous ink drawings of Dutch artist Louis Reith. Reith's hand-drawn geometric patterns and collaged compositions are inspired by elements of design, folk art, and suggested space. His works follow a strictly calculated formula, seeking the perfect balance between foreground and background. The artist achieves freedom and movement through repetition, resulting in captivating compositions.
From a distance, the artist's perfected compositions look like digitally manufactured prints, but up close, the artist's hand is revealed through handmade play, glitches, and wavering lines. These same qualities are reflected in the adapted rugs. Each piece showcases Reith's dedication to his craft, as well as his passion for exploring the boundaries between traditional and modern art forms.

Each rug should be unpacked as soon as possible, since the fibers need to "breathe" and adapt.
Shedding may occur, which is a characteristic of all cut carpets made of natural fibers, and does not cause any damage to the carpet. Regular vacuuming is recommended before the first use and afterwards, using a flat nozzle, always moving the vacuum cleaner in the direction of the pile. This will help your carpet last longer.
Blot stains immediately by laying a towel over the affected area to absorb the moisture. Do not rub. In the case of serious stains, consult a professional carpet-cleaning company.
If you need to store your carpet for a long period, never fold it, simply roll it and store it horizontally, this will prevent indentations.

TRNK Collection Pillows
Information about the pillows
Louis Reith (b. 1983 in Hengelo, The Netherlands) graduated from AKI Academy
of Art and Design, Enschede in 2010 and lives in Zetten, The Netherlands.
Reith is known for his monochrome mystical landscape constructions and
Modernist-inspired geometrics. Influenced by architectural composition and
reminiscent of the Bauhaus movement, who incorporated spirituality as part of
their aesthetic process, Reith’s artist hand is subtly evident in a multimedia
process that is both meticulous and delicate, as seen in his fine ink drawings,
collaged shapes and re-valued images. Through an early journey as a graphic
designer in Belgium Reith developed a love for printed matter and, in his time with
Flemish artists, an understanding of the lyrical craft in arts; the functional aesthetic
and the sensitive narrative. This merging of elements informs his approach to the
technical aspects of form and the mythical qualities of the hand made.
