Jaipur Living has announced a new partnership with textile designer, Kevin O’Brien. Known for his distinctive velvet, O’Brien’s designs are now translated into two beautiful rug collections.
"This collaboration came together beautifully! We were working on some exciting new concepts for Jaipur Living and immediately thought of Kevin. His design aesthetic was perfect with our new innovative constructions. We quickly decided to explore together knowing his specialty is burn out silk and stunning, versatile designs. Collaboration is where the magic happens,” said Steve Sorrow, vice president of product design and development at Jaipur Living.
Human/Nature is a hand knotted collection that showcases a simultaneously inviting and global vibe that has the ability to anchor any modern space. Land, Sea, Sky brings these designs to life in a polyester; viscose combo that provides the high design look at an affordable price point.
“The rug in a room is like the basso profundo in a chorus. The music of the room is built upon this rug base,” says O’Brien. “Through this partnership I am able to “compose” more of the room, providing both the depth and the heights of the experience. Jaipur Living has provided me the opportunity to create the full well rounded resonance that I know we are capable of. This is the beginning of a beautiful relationship.”
O’Brien will be in Jaipur Living’s showroom at High Point Market on June 4 – 5.
