Morocco-based brand Beni Rugs works together with FRAMA, a design brand based in Copenhagen on the limited Terrain collection. The two fuse their expertise as Beni Rugs is known for its sustainable and elevated craftsmanship and FRAMA is clever with minimal looks. The range is comprised of flat-woven undyed rugs to bring attention to the use of natural materials and artistry which is a testament to the brands' shared values as well.
The founder of FRAMA, Niels Strøyer Christophersen speaks about the collection, stating "Finding common ground between Beni and FRAMA’s universes has been a natural process. We both share a deep mutual respect for materiality and the making of meaningful things. You can clearly see in Beni’s work that it’s rooted in the craft and history of their surroundings – and, in the case of this collection, in the natural world."
