“Time is life” carpet

Designer: Droog with Metahaven, 2011
A carpet that spans a lifetime and can be rolled or cut to use over the years.

The carpet extends 13 metres and spans your life. You begin your life in white, then evolve into simple geometry, the patterns that offer a sense of repetition and reassurance. Then you become embroiled in a Persian carpet of life experiences until finally, the white takes over again.
