Kevin OGara Introduces The Labyrinth Collection Area Rugs Inspired by Historic Mazes
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Renowned designer Kevin OGara introduces The Labyrinth Collection, a series of luxurious area rugs inspired by historic mazes. Drawing inspiration from the boxwood gardens at Chateau de Villandry in Loire Valley, France, the collection pays homage to the labyrinth tradition of hedge mazes found across various cultures and religious traditions. Each rug is named after a historic maze or significant place, such as the "Lucca" labyrinth in the Cathedral of San Maritino in Italy.
The Labyrinth Collection area rugs bring a mythical tradition to life as a luxury decorative element. Hand-tufted with wool and sustainable bamboo silk by Kevin's production team in India, these rugs feature raised patterns that mimic hedge walls, preserving the asymmetrical maze designs. The collection offers five standard colorways inspired by timeless natural elements, including "Boxwood" green, and is available in standard sizes as well as custom sizing options.
Designed for intimate spaces like the living room, study, or bedroom, The Labyrinth Collection rugs are meant to be experienced with bare feet. The bamboo silk pattern produces variations in tone under different lighting conditions, recalling meditation labyrinths and bringing a sense of peace and centering to the room. The collection has been awarded the prestigious Iron A' Design Award in 2022, recognizing its well-designed, practical, and innovative nature that meets professional and industrial requirements.
