8-year-old Alf Bärbel Wit is a young artist from Amsterdam and he recently created the LineLinesLines collection for Moooi Carpets. The collection is made up of graphic rugs that shine a spotlight on Alf Bärbel Wit's intricate and vibrant artworks of unique lines and shapes.
To bring the capsule to life, his family gave up the use of the living room over the span of weeks. The furniture was all removed so that the room could be used to support the large-scale works by the young artist. The carpets created were named after his favorite songs -- often, the songs were playing as he worked. As a result, the names of the rugs are dubbed 'Blinding Lights' and 'Everything Now.'
