Greg Natale’s new rug range inspired by French Deco

Leave a Comment

“French Art Deco is definitely more aligned with modernism. It’s cleaner than the American version which is heavier and a lot more decorative,” says Greg Natale of the inspiration behind his latest Designer Rugs collection, ‘Geo Deco.’ With its bold, streamlined shapes, varied pile heights, hand carving and alternating use of loop and cut pile, the range has a beautiful, almost sculptural feel.

“There is something so arresting about French Deco, it’s always appealed to me more than its American counterpart. There’s something less fussy about French Deco and I wanted to capture that simplicity of shape and colour in this range, albeit in a very bold and arrhythmic fashion,” says Greg of the rugs, each of which are named after pioneers of the Art Deco style.

The 'Delaunay' rug
The ‘Delaunay’ rug, $4050. Swoon!

As for the colour palette, Greg explains that there’s something for everyone with pink, blue, green and more in the mix. “My favourite is the round one. I love all the different shapes, the pink, and the references to French Deco,” says Greg who has dabbled in red this time (it’s been a while!), having fallen in love with deep burgundy and maroon shades again.

And while Greg is known for his use of repeat pattern, there isn’t any to be found in this collection. “I’ve never done it before but this time I’ve blown up the pattern. In the French Deco movement, rugs were considered more of a big art piece,” says Greg.

The 'Despres' rug

The collection is comprised of seven rectangular designs, measuring 240cm x 300cm each as well as one round design which measures 250cm in diameter. Each rug is made from 100 per cent New Zealand wool and can be customised, recoloured and reshaped upon request.

“Playing with cut and loop pile, using only very fine hairline carving as well as varying the pile heights across each of the rugs, has allowed us to create something quite evocative and unexpected.”

A glass shower screen is not the only option! In A glass shower screen is not the only option!

In this 80s villa reno, @trentinidesign took inspiration from an archway typical of the era and used it throughout the home.

The bathroom was transformed from a classic three-piece set up that included a shower, bath and vanity. Kathryn removed the bath and split the room in half and designed an arch to sit between the two zones. 

“I wanted something spectacular. Rather than having a vanity with a piece of glass like you would typically see, I was really trying to push myself as a designer. It was costly but it worked out well and the feedback has been great."

Swipe for the before and follow the link in bio to see the rest of this home.

One half of popular parenting podcast @wedonthavet One half of popular parenting podcast @wedonthavetimeforthis, turns out former Neighbours actor @gemma_peanut is even more multi-talented than we thought! Will you check out the joyful and colourful reno of her holiday home (and airbnb) @yo_caba_caba?!

Head over to the blog via link in bio to read all about why she went bold and full of pattern in this project, which is a stark contrast to her zen and neutral Northern Beaches abode.

There's also plenty of details about where things are from etc.

"I’m not an interior designer so I just chose what I liked and followed my gut. Ultimately this home has been an opportunity to explore my alter ego – it allowed me to do things that I wouldn’t normally do.”

Not many friends in life fall into the unofficial Not many friends in life fall into the unofficial family category and they're a special gift. So ends three weeks with @danisteve81 who left her husband and son in the UK (I'm forever grateful they lent her to me!) to come and cheer me up and help me in the most practical ways after I spent Christmas and New Year in hospital. There were tears and I miss her so much already but how amazing to have had all that time together as adults. Such a rare treat and would never have happened without having been through something so challenging. Silver linings and all that. So many other friends have also been incredibly thoughtful and kind. There aren't many times I'd say this without cringing but I am 100% blessed!

I still cannot believe we have been friends since we were 12! 12! Are you still close with your childhood besties?
The renovation of this 80s beach shack @camillo_ho The renovation of this 80s beach shack @camillo_house is a work of art and while almost every surface was updated, the decision to keep the original slate floor was genius if you ask us. 

Owner @clarehillier__ says: "With its purple, pink, red and brown tones, the slate was the starting point for our interior palette."

Come and check out the before and afters via link in bio now and read the reno story. It's a real beauty.

And you can book it for your next holiday too!
