| Each square measures 9" x 9", giving the rug a pixelated, almost digital appearance. The name “Do-Lo-Rez” refers to "low resolution," inspired by pixelated images that have been transformed into a tactile surface with varying heights. The design mimics the look of an unfinished puzzle, inviting playful interaction and customization. |

The rug’s hand tufting is done using a specialized tool that pushes and cuts wool fibers into a tightly woven cotton base, secured with a latex backing. This process ensures durability while maintaining the softness and texture of the wool. More than just a rug, Do-Lo-Rez is part of a larger concept that includes a matching sofa, blurring the lines between virtual design ideas and real-world objects. Nanimarquina, established in 1987, focuses on creativity, quality, and sustainability. They emphasize environmental responsibility with a “reuse, reduce, recycle” philosophy, ensuring all rugs are handmade under ethical working conditions without child labor. Do-Lo-Rez is a bold, sculptural statement that brings contemporary art and design into everyday living spaces. |
