Fasad DUO 505 Light Grey-Dark Black
Made by Kasthall
Designed by David Chipperfield
The Fasad DUO 505 originates in a quietly observed detail: the brick façade of Kasthall's own factory in Kinna, Sweden. David Chipperfield, whose architectural practice is defined by structural clarity and the precision of material choice, translated that façade into a directional woven pattern, one that reads as both graphic and grounded depending on the light.
The colorway pairs light grey with dark black, a restrained dialogue that holds the eye without demanding it. The understated sheen of linen lifts the surface, while recycled post-consumer wool gives the rug its tactile weight and warmth. This is the first Kasthall collection to combine the two fibers, and the result is a woven form where material integrity and visual restraint are inseparable.

Frequently Asked Questions
What materials are used in the Kasthall Fasad DUO rug?
The Fasad DUO is woven from a combination of recycled post-consumer wool and linen. This pairing, the first of its kind for Kasthall, gives the rug a dual character: the wool contributes warmth and tactility, while the linen introduces a subtle, refined sheen to the surface.
Who designed the Kasthall Fasad DUO collection?
The Fasad DUO collection was designed by David Chipperfield, the British architect known for his commitment to structural discipline and carefully considered materiality. The pattern was inspired by the brick façade of Kasthall's own factory in Kinna, Sweden.
Is the Fasad DUO 505 available in custom sizes?
Yes, the Fasad DUO 505 is made to order and available in custom sizes. Because it is produced by Kasthall in Sweden, dimensions can be specified to suit the proportions of a particular space or project.
How is the Fasad DUO rug produced, and where?
The Fasad DUO is woven at Kasthall's facility in Kinna, Sweden. Kasthall has produced handcrafted rugs in Kinna since 1889, and the factory itself served as the architectural reference for the pattern Chipperfield developed for this collection.
What interior settings work well with the Fasad DUO 505 colorway?
The Light Grey and Dark Black colorway is well suited to spaces where the architectural character of the floor needs to hold its own without competing with other surfaces. It works across contemporary residential, hospitality, and professional interiors, particularly those defined by neutral material palettes and considered proportion.
