Ibiza Sunset Gan Rugs: The Materiality of Light Captured in a Rug
The Artistic Inspiration behind Sunset
The Ibiza Sunset Gan Rugs (often referred to simply as Sunset) is more than just a piece of furniture: it is the textile transposition of a light study conducted by interdisciplinary creative Alejandra Gandía-Blasco. The design is directly inspired by her artistic work titled "Sunset in Ibiza 19.34 October 2015". The designer's goal was to make the intangible tangible, capturing the exact moment the twilight light fades over the horizon of Ibiza, transforming an atmospheric phenomenon into a design object with strong emotional impact.
Designer and Creative Vision: Alejandra Gandía-Blasco
Alejandra Gandía-Blasco, the brand's creative director, explores the materiality of color with Sunset. Her vision focuses on wool's ability to reflect and absorb light, much like the atmosphere does during sunset. Thanks to this experimental and poetic approach, the collection has received prestigious international accolades, including being a finalist for the Archiproducts Design Awards and BoY Awards, as well as awards from authoritative publications like Wallpaper* and NYCxDesign.
Premium Materials: 100% Wool
To faithfully reproduce the chromatic spectrum of sunset, the Ibiza Sunset rug is made entirely of high-quality 100% wool. Wool was chosen for its natural brilliance and its ability to accept dyes with extreme precision. The design unfolds through a masterful gradient composed of 12 different reddish and orange tones, which blend into each other to recreate the vibrant effect of the Ibiza sky.
Production Technique: The Excellence of Hand Knotted
The chromatic complexity of Sunset is made possible only through the Hand Knotted technique. Expert craftsmen in India work on the rug row by row, creating thousands of precise knots to ensure a fluid transition between colors. With a density of 150,000 knots per square meter and a total height of approximately 9 mm, the rug offers a dense, durable surface and extraordinary design definition. Each knot is a tiny pixel of color contributing to the final sunset image.
