CAPPELEN DIMYR
Cappelen Dimyr is an artistic collective based in Copenhagen, which was founded in 2018 by four creatives – two sisters plus one sister’s husband and a friend -- with the goal of making quiet yet sophisticated, richly textured handmade rugs inspired by the rustic southeast coast of Sweden. The collective produces striking made-to-order rugs rendered in natural fibers in earthy, neutral tones. Designed in Scandinavia, each rug is handmade in India in collaboration with local artisans applying their knowledge and craftsmanship. Its workshops are authorized by Good Weave Certification and the certification of Care & Fair. Soft and plush, the rugs speak with the calm elegance of refined Scandinavian design.
Inspired by southeast coast of Sweden
Cappelen Dimyr is a company that places great importance on sustainability and environmental responsibility. They exclusively use natural fibers, such as unbleached linen and wool, in their production process. This not only ensures that their products have minimal harmful impact on the environment, but also results in a high-quality end product that is both durable and visually appealing.
Each piece produced by Cappelen Dimyr is meticulously crafted, with attention paid to even the smallest details. They are trimmed by hand, washed with natural soap, and dried under the sun. The company takes great care to ensure that no chemicals are used in any part of the production process, further underscoring their commitment to sustainability.
The natural beauty of the Swedish coast serves as a significant source of inspiration for Cappelen Dimyr. The unique textures and colors found in the rugged landscape and the vastness of the surrounding sea have informed much of the company's design philosophy.
By drawing on the natural elements of their environment, Cappelen Dimyr creates products that are not only beautiful but also embody a sense of harmony with the surrounding world. The company's designs often feature earthy tones, with shades of sand and stone.
