About This Piece

Vintage Design

1970s This gorgeous "Quadrat" space age model rug in whool embodies the distinctive style of Verner Panton, featuring a mesmerizing geometric design that commands attention. A true work of art from the 70s. It has been professionally washed and disinfected and is ready for use.
Dimension:
62.99 x 90,55inches
160 cm x 230 cm

Visual & Style
It's composed of six large, square modules arranged in two columns of three. Within each module, a series of concentric squares in a gradient of warm, vibrant colors—from deep crimson and plum at the edges to bright orange and a pale, almost white-yellow in the center—creates a powerful optical illusion of depth and receding space.
This use of color and geometry is a hallmark of the Mid-Century Modern and Op Art styles that Panton championed.
The effect is dynamic, making the flat surface appear three-dimensional.
While many of Panton's textile designs were part of industrial lines for manufacturers like Tisca/Mira-X and were not individually signed, the bold, experimental use of pattern and color is unmistakably characteristic of his work.
The design is known commercially as "Quadrat" or a similar variant within his collection. Panton sought to create immersive environments with color and form, and this rug is a perfect, rich example of that philosophy.

About the Creator

Verner Panton

Born in Denmark in 1926, Verner Panton studied at Odense Technical College before enrolling in the Architecture Department at the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts. From 1950 until 1952, he worked for Arne Jacobsen’s firm before founding his own studio dedicated to experimental architecture and design in 1955.

Panton was passionate about plastics and other new materials, which he exploited to achieve vibrantly colored, geometric forms inspired by Pop Art. In 1959, he debuted his Cone Chair, which led to a number of commissions and partnerships with manufacturers. In 1960, he developed the first inflatable furniture collection and began to create futuristic “total environments” in which the walls, floors, ceiling, and furnishings were treated in a unifying aesthetic.

In the early ’60s, Panton moved to Basel and began a long and productive relationship with Vitra, with whom he developed the iconic Panton Chair, the first cantilevered chair made from a single piece of plastic.
