Typography + rugs = winning!

You know how I love a little (okay, a lot of) typography in my life. So these rugs by Linus Dean immediately appealed to me.

After spending 15 years in the graphic design and advertising industries in Sydney, New Zealander Linus Dean has gone out on his own to design typographical rugs. While they look super modern, the high quality silk and wool rugs are made by hand using traditional techniques, in Nepal. Linus recently spent five there, getting to know how the local weaving industry works.

You’ve seen the bus scrolls everywhere I know, but have you ever seen one on a rug?

Rugs can take 9-to-12 weeks to be made and shipped. For retail and wholesales enquiries, contact Linus via his website. His pop culture artwork, which has no hidden meaning but “just looks cool” is also well worth a look.
