PLAYTEST CARPET
Nathalie Pozzi
Originally made for a game designer, playtest carpet was inspired by game pieces scattered on a table.
The carpet was crafted by hand in Nepal and the soft, bumpy contour creates a pleasurable surface for standing, sitting or lying. The playful irregularity of the balls, the color pattern, and the outline shape are reminiscent of an undulating amoeba or the unpredictable borders of a country.
The carpet is constructed out of 6000 large and colorful (3 cm diameter) woolen felt balls.
