Building a foundation upon neutral tones, the GAN Roots 03 Rug brings warmth and texture to a space. Drawing inspiration from the Mediterranean origins of both Bermudez and GAN, the rug is woven using the traditional Kilim technique out of jute and cotton.

Like the wider Roots collection, the Roots 03 is defined by a distinctive use of squares, altering with slight variations in tones throughout
