HEMP

BY TANJA KIRST

The series of rugs by Tanja Kirst are

handwoven in 100% hemp yarn. Each thread

consists of 50 thin threads spun together

and dyed in bio colour. The fact that hemp

requires little water, can be cultivated

without fertiliser and improves soil structure

and adds nutrients as it grows – makes the

hemp plant important in the aim for a more

sustainable textile production. Handwoven

in a flat weave construction with colour and

weft effect.

Underlay carpet is included.

Suitable for domestic and contract use.

ABOUT TANJA KIRST

Tanja Kirst’s work is characterized by reflection on thoughts and

details that you don’t immediately recognize. This includes subtle

colour transition and gradation into shades. Tanja Kirst works with

hemp as a sustainable alternative in textile design, rethinking a well-

known material in a space between design and craftsmanship, she

gives this eco-friendly material a whole new appeal. With interaction

and observation, all the functions and details can be experienced over

time. This experimental process and way of designing is developed

with an intention to add more value to the textile – and to give a poetic

approach and longevity to the product.
