I went to Mexico looking for something I couldn't name.
I found it in the colours on every wall, the light at every
hour — and I came home changed.
These rugs are not decorative objects. They are places. Each one is a specific moment I stood in front of until I understood why.
My wish is that one of them brings that feeling into your home.

It starts with a drawing. Weeks later, it becomes a rug —
hand-knotted in Morocco's M'rirt region using 100% natural wool.
One knot at a time. Washed and dried in the Moroccan sun.
I'm writing this from my London living room on Valentine's Day, curled up with a hot water bottle. My birthday was spent in San Agustinillo, a beach village so quiet the main event is the sunset. I journaled every day until my pen ran out. Some weeks, that's enough.
From the hum and density of Mexico City, I landed somewhere that moves deliberately. Oaxaca doesn't rush, and it turns out, neither could my designs. I scrapped everything and started again.
Mexico is a place I'm convinced has invented colour. I arrived with no plans, no lists. Just a vague trust that the city would meet me halfway. A week later, I had started sketching a rug collection.
