THE ART OF DESIGN issue 15
Adriana Tavares Rugs fashions refreshing surfaces through hand
tufted and crafted designs. The bespoke designs embrace shape,
colour and innovation to ensure Adriana Tavares Rugs revolutionises
the perception of surfaces and turns them into art.
Focusing on the translation of drawings, Tavares hand tufts surfaces
to create inventive, contemporary and stimulating outcomes.
Translating drawings that push the boundaries of flooring and that
create statement pieces to bring a space to life.
Tavares’ core passion lies within the interactions between craft
and education. Her promotion of craft education comes through
her research into historic teaching methods, namely the Child Art
Collection 1930-1960 located at Yorkshire Sculpture Park within the
National Education Archive. Tavares utilises these teaching methods
in workshops, her practice and collaboration on community projects.
Tavares produces collections but also works directly with clients to
create bespoke commissions.
