Silhouette is a collection of rugs designed by Jaime Hayón, which includes two versions: one for indoor use, one for outdoor, characterized by the dreamlike and exuberant style of the famous Spanish designer.
The delicate drawing represents the silhouettes of several imaginary characters who coexist in a beautiful composition. Hayón introduces subtle touches of color through small, overflowing personality elements that help interpret each of the images. Nine faces are distributed from different angles so that the rug can be seen from any perspective, fitting perfectly into any space.
With the Silhouette indoor, Nanimarquina introduces for the first time the technique of embroidery on kilim, a laborious process made by hand in Pakistan where the embroidery in chain stitches adds texture and a soft volume, underlining the sinuous character of the drawing. Despite its delicate appearance, it is a robust technique suitable for both residential and commercial use. Available in two standard sizes, the indoor model also includes a piece of tapestry that can be hung vertically.
The Silhouette outdoor version is a hand-tufted rug, developed like all other nanimarquina outdoor rugs with 100% recycled PET fibers - with an incredible feel. Indeed, the appearance and the touch have everything of a carpet for the interior, but the material offers a resistance allowing the exterior use.
All Nanimarquina rugs can be ordered with an anti-stain treatment.
Important : Rugs > 2m can't be returned. That's why, we advise you to ask for the samples before placing any order to confirm your choice. Deposit will be refunded upon return of samples.

Jaime Hayón
Born in Madrid in 1974, Jaime Hayón has one of the most glittering careers in recent contemporary design. Although trained in Madrid, he forged his reputation at Fabrica, the creative breeding ground run by Benetton near the Italian city of Treviso. Arriving in 1997, at the young age of 24, Hayón worked for Oliviero Toscani, who would soon place him in charge of the design department. It was at Fabrica that Hayón first worked with BD on the Mail Me project.
In 2004, he decided to branch out on his own, settling in Barcelona and working on a number of projects while also exhibiting his more personal work in art galleries. The exhibition “Mediterranean Digital Baroque”, at London’s David Gill Gallery, and the bathroom collection he designed for ArtQuitect marked the start of his meteoric international rise, which was established with the Showtime collection for BD and his subsequent work with companies such as Metalarte, Camper, Lladró, Bisazza, Swarovsky, and Moooi.
