Cubemix by Flora Sophie Taubner

Germany

Germany

With this Design I followed my motto: Beauty is the balance between nature and construction, arbitrariness and calculation. I was inspired by water and it´s natural flow. When you observe a river and its movements you will recognize its beautiful performance with calm moments and theatrical actions.
I tried to represent the water by using a contrasting form like the cube.
So I cut many paper cubes in different sizes and assembled them to an exciting composition that visualizes a flow with its play.
Mit diesem Entwurf bin ich meinem Motto treu geblieben: Schönheit ist die Balance zwischen Natur und Konstruktion, Willkür und Berechnung. Ich habe mich vom Element Wasser und dessen natürlichen Bewegungen inspirieren lassen. Wenn man einen Fluss und dessen Strömungen beobachtet, dann erkennt man bei genauerer Betrachtung den Wechsel von ruhigen und wilden Momenten.
Um diesen darzustellen wählte ich die gegensätzliche geometrische Form des Quadrates.
Ich fertigte mir mehrere dieser Quadrate aus Papier zu und ordnete diese zu einer spannenden Komposition an, welche das Spiel der Ströming wiederspiegeln soll.

Excellent Service and Products
I wanted to reserve a carpet as I was abroad when I made my choice and there was only 1 left. I was able to telephone and speak to a very helpful lady who arranged for the carpet to be delivered 2 days after my return 3 weeks later. A week later, I chose another one with a 10% further discount for buying again and that arrived promptly also after another discussion with another helpful lady. I now have 2 fabulous rugs at a very decent price. Yes, the 'Handloom Fringe' carpet is shedding where one sits but I well remember a fitted carpet shedding for 6 months prior to stopping. So I hope it will stop eventually. DPD deliver promptly.
