Kasthall launches four new colours of the iconic rug - Goose Eye XL Icon. The Goose Eye pattern was originally designed by Kasthall’s former head designer, Gunilla Lagerhem Ullberg. The legacy of Lagerhem Ullberg is carried on by Kasthall Design Studio who, like Lagerhem Ullberg, has turned to nature for inspiration. This is reflected in the names of the new colors: Foggy Blue, Timber Green, Yellow Brick and Lichen Grey.
When Gunilla Lagerhem Ullberg was developing the next addition to the Häggå family pattern, she got her inspiration from ethnic fashion fabrics and costumes. With an enlarged goose eye our most popular pattern was updated with a new, modern and confident expression – Goose Eye XL Icon.
The woven rug in pure wool has, with its timeless pattern, become a classic in the Kasthall collection. The four new colors carry on the legacy of Lagerhem Ullberg and are inspired by the Scandinavian forests during morning walks in a hazy and dreamy summer landscape.
- It's no wonder that the Goose Eye pattern remains a favorite, which shows the greatness of Gunilla Lagerhem Ullberg's design. The new colors complement the existing color and are designed to give a contemporary yet classic expression that lasts over time, says Lena Jiseborn, Kasthall Design & Range Director.
