Project: Handcrafted rugs for the installation “among-all” by Patricia Urquiola at Heimtextil 2026

With 'among-all', Patricia Urquiola presents an immersive installation at Heimtextil 2026 in Frankfurt that understands textiles as a living, responsive system. Conceived as an open, evolving ecosystem, the space responds to movement, materiality and human presence. The installation focuses on processes of transformation – between craft and technology, waste and resource.

Two handcrafted pieces by 13RUGS form organic landscapes within this textile environment. Made from woven selvages from rohi’s fabric production, they become zones of passage – between softness and structure, resource and remnant. In their texture and form, the rugs show how craft, sustainability and an experimental design approach come together in textile surfaces that respond to space, movement and presence.

The installation is complemented by a lightweight, open grid that structures the space – also realised using woven selvages from rohi.
