This is the red model from our Ndebele line, a series designed by Sandra Figuerola that playfully combines several geometric patterns, totally different from each other in terms of style. This proposal draws inspiration from the culture of the Ndebele people of South Africa, who paint the facades of their homes with dynamic and colorful motifs. These geometric and colorful wall decorations are also traditionally made by women.

Sandra Figuerola thus reinterprets the motifs of the Ndebele homes, moving them to a textile medium and using a pattern and color palette more in line with contemporary living. The Red model combines garnet, orange, purple, green and ecru tones. The series also includes a Green version, which contains green, blue, gray and black tones. Both are available in two sizes. Ndebele, a rug from our kilim collection The kilim is an artisan method of rug making in which the weft is tightly woven on a manual loom, using only threads and no knotting. The result is a light fabric with no pile, similar to that of upholstery. It is a technique that offers great flexibility, a feature that GAN explores thoroughly to create high-impact details. Sandra Figuerola, designer of the Ndebele kilim After training in Fine Arts at the San Carlos School in Valencia, Sandra Figuerola directed her professional career towards graphic design. In 1984 he founded La Nave collective with ten other designers, a studio that was a benchmark of Valencian design until its dissolution in 1991. Afterward, she continued to work in partnership with other designers as well as independently, developing her activity in various design subjects: graphic, industrial and textile. She has stood out specifically in the field of graphic design, publishing and corporate identity -together with Marisa Gallen, she designed the GANDIABLASCO logo. Aside from continuing her work as an independent designer, she has founded the Hup Hotels interior design studio.
