A thick and soft rug inspired by Korean rice cakes. Experimental coils, hand-wrapped with wool, were integrated into the rug directly on the loom, allowing the warp to sink into their structure. Pineapple fiber yarn serves as the warp. Wrapping the cords with two colors of wool created a graphic, illustrative effect.

Dominika and Julia began experimenting with traditional weaving during their studies. Their first joint project was Green Yarns Lab, the goal of which was to design highly tactile textiles from natural yarns, dyed using plants. In 2020, it was presented to the public during the make me! competition final at the Łódź Design Festival. Their refusal to contribute to waste has led them to embark upon RESTKI, a project to develop a material with which interior objects could be produced, made from leftover yarn. Currently REST collaborates with The Good Living Co.
