VICHY: A Reimagined Classic
Kasthall Design Studio introduces VICHY, a collection of woven rugs in pure wool that celebrates the classic Vichy pattern, also known as Gingham.
Head of Design at Kasthall, Lena Jiseborn, reflects on the collection: “The VICHY collection is a celebration of squares and stripes, an integral part of Kasthall’s rich design heritage. We’ve embraced the familiarity of the checkered pattern and given it a modern twist.”
The VICHY collection embodies the tactile experience of Kasthall rugs. Through the use of high-quality wool and a considerable amount of yarn, the result is a denser and more versatile product, which makes each rug both long-lasting and a pleasure to walk on.
Inspired by the enduring presence of the checkered pattern in fashion and interior design, the VICHY collection brings a fresh perspective to a timeless motif with centuries of history. Lena Jiseborn shares, “The vibrant fashion scene of the 1950s greatly influenced our creative process, resulting in a collection that beautifully offers a nostalgic yet contemporary embrace of the checkered design.”
Eight colorways
VICHY is a playful and sophisticated woven rug in pure wool that is available in eight colorways: Vanilla Coconut, Quince, Mango Peach, Raspberry Blue, Cassis, Sloe Berry, Mint Chocolate, and Pistachio.
Each rug tells a unique story and is crafted with care and artistry at the Kasthall Factory in Kinna, Sweden.
“A true statement rug that aligns with Kasthall’s authentic spirit,” Lena concludes.
