RE-VIVE  by rENs & DESSO

Creativity connects designers and industry. 

Designer
duo Renee Mennen and Stefanie van Keijsteren of rENs
 present with DESSO, the global carpets company, a new 
collection of rugs named ‘RE-VIVE’.  In this special
 collaboration between DESSO and rENs, the two designers 
work on the creative process transforming each 
individual rug into a new work of art, extending the 
product’s life. 

By using a manual dyeing process on the out-of-date
 collections, the carpets are re-coloured with red dye.
  The colour red makes a bold statement signaling 
to people that textile materials should not be wasted.
 The interacting yarns and red dye produces new and 
unique colour shades every time, giving each rug 
its own identity and renewed creative life.
