The Cord Collection comprises four handwoven wool rugs created by Massproductions for LAYERED. Developed to highlight the logic of weaving, each design combines a neutral wool base with a contrasting stripe made from a coarser yarn that adds visual depth and tactile texture. Rather than treating the rug as a decorative surface alone, the collection emphasizes the intersecting threads that give the woven structure its strength and flexibility. The range debuted during this year's 3daysofdesign in an installation with spinning columns wrapped in loose-ended cords to demonstrate the rugs' movement and durability.
The collection is available in Black White, Blue Brown, Rust, and Yellow Oatmeal colorways. The rugs combine traditional handweaving with a restrained material palette. It draws attention to the contrast between precise production methods and handmade variation. Raised stripes create a more dimensional appearance without changing the underlying woven construction.
