Frequently Asked Questions

Who designed the Kasthall Tiles Block rug?

Tiles Block was designed by Claesson Koivisto Rune, the Stockholm-based architectural and design practice founded in 1995 by Mårten Claesson, Eero Koivisto, and Ola Rune. The studio is known for work that bridges spatial and product design with a consistent formal restraint.

What materials is the Tiles Block 880 made from?

The rug is constructed primarily from wool using Kasthall's hand-tufting technique, produced at the company's mill in Kinna, Sweden. Wool provides natural resilience, warmth underfoot, and a surface that develops character over time.

Is the Tiles Block rug available in custom sizes?

Yes. Kasthall produces Tiles Block to order, and custom dimensions can be specified to suit residential or commercial projects. Lead times vary depending on configuration, so consulting with a design professional is recommended for project planning.

What interiors suit the Tiles Block Travertine colorway?

The Travertine colorway, with its warm stone-toned neutrals, works well in interiors that favor natural materials, concrete, oak, and plaster finishes. Its architectural geometry also holds its own in more minimal, contemporary settings.

How should a tufted wool rug like this be maintained?

Regular vacuuming without a beater bar is recommended to preserve the pile structure. Spot cleaning with a damp cloth and mild detergent handles most stains. Professional rug cleaning is advised for deeper care, particularly for larger custom pieces.
