Once upon a time...In a land far away, there was a little house, in a small village in the realm of Cambridge. The house had a tiny garden, where a dog liked to lay in the sun. From the outside the house looked quite normal, but inside it was very different, inside it was very curious indeed. The house felt strangely familiar, yet everything was somehow a little unexpected, different, even odd. The house belonged to two artists who loved to make things and fix things, and it is there we begin the story...

It was a magic carpet...“Persian Cowhide Rug designed by Young & BattagliaMade in EnglandThe piece is a playful and unexpected marriage between two of the most iconic rugs in the world. The meticulous and geometric Persian carpet is seamlessly combined with the natural irregularity of an animal skin rug. The design is made possible by digitally printing on to a spe-cial fabric backed rubber which is then hand cut in to its final hide shape. Unlike real cowhides this one is hypo-allergenic, washable, non-slip, and will not curl up at the edges. Dimensions: 1653mm x 1500mm
