About
I’m Sophie Dannin, an artist and designer living and working in St. Louis, Missouri.
Process
My design process is largely driven by the
challenges that arise from using finite materials. The patchwork rug method I’m
currently exploring eliminates the need for new textile production by making
use of deadstock materials and carpet remnants. The colors I source are limited
and I will never be able to make the same piece twice. Fabrication and design tend
to happen simultaneously, resulting in patterns and themes informed by
archaeology and earth sciences.
Custom Orders
Care
- After unpacking, gently vacuum to fluff up the fibers and flatten the rug.
-
Spot clean as needed using a damp cloth with warm water.
-
Vacuum as needed using suction only, no bristles.
- To preserve the life of the rug, use a rug pad.
Material
Various carpet remnants, fiberglass mesh, felt
