Today there are carpets, perhaps, in every home. They not only add coziness, but also become a real gem of the interior thanks to the artistic invention of the designers.
Thus, the architect Florian Pucher created a unique collection of 88 carpets depicting the landscape of various terrain, imitating aerial photographs. He began his work in 2007, and was inspired by his childhood impressions of the view from the window of the porthole during flights. As the author himself recalls, he always tried to take a seat by the window in order to admire the opening view of the terrain during takeoffs and landings, and was very upset when there were night flights. Florian admired the clarity of the lines, the symmetry of objects, he was so impressed by these paintings that he decided to recreate them in his carpets.
In his work, he uses online services that provide access to cartography, satellite photos, and aerial photographs. Precisely measuring out the size of the parts and choosing the right color scheme, he inspiredly set about creating another masterpiece. All his works are made of natural materials and non-toxic glue, which allows you to place the rug even in the children's room.
You can buy these carpets through the author's website, their price depends on the size, the average cost of a carpet is $ 1600. But there are also exclusive models that are sold at auction and are very expensive.
Another designer, Laure Kasiers, has brought to life a series of carpets that are a miniature copy of the natural landscape. Using materials of various textures in her work, she creates a realistic picture of the area from a bird's eye view - hills, hillocks, meadows, lakes and swamps.
Similar carpets are created by the Greek woman Alexandra Kehayoglou, but in her works she uses not only wool and cotton, but many other natural materials at hand that remain in various factories - thread, burlap, pieces of leather, felt and others.
She creates unique miniatures of landscapes of South America, realistically conveying their beauty and natural diversity.
