A contemporary handcrafted design by Sandra Figuerola for GAN

Geometry and groundbreaking, explosive colors

The new collection of kilims, VANGUARDIAS, designed by Sandra Figuerola, is a veritable explosion of geometry and color, ready to break with prevailing schemes of sobriety. Bold rugs, with oversized drawings, strong strokes, and intense colors, as is customary in the style of the Valencian graphic designer, a collaborator of GAN since the firm’s beginnings.

Sandra Figuerola has designed numerous kilims and textile products for GAN, often with a strong geometric, graphic, and colorful character. She was the co-designer of the brand and one of the first to create proposals for reversible cotton rugs, which at the time were a very innovative product.

“Rather than using pictorial techniques, which in textiles seems somewhat complicated to me since it is a very different medium, in VANGUARDIAS I have worked a lot with color, trying to find a balance between luminous, vibrant and sophisticated tones. I have delved into the different ‘isms’ of the avant-garde: Dadaism, Futurism, Constructivism... to be able to define a unique chromatic palette with avant-garde aromas,” explains Sandra Figuerola.
