Folded Tones by Enoch Liew, an industrial designer based in Adelaide, Australia, is a carpet that looks deceptively creased. Creating an immense amount of dimension, it adheres to an illusory aesthetic that can be appreciated by many. In fact, it came first in the 2013 DIA/NAG Rug Design Competition and won Gold in the Design Institute of Australia (DIA) SA Awards 2013.
Available in three different color palettes, Folded Tones by Enoch Liew is much different when a person lies down on it. As written by its manufacturer, Terrace Floors, "This lead to the use of simple repetitive lines that can be enjoyed as an abstract pattern up close, allowing for a varied experience from different distances." Quite clever and creative.
