Surf Bench- the rug that rides the ground

SURF is a collection of handmade wool rugs and accessories made in India inspired by the idyllic
islands where the surf culture was founded; an homage to the iconic surf board that defines the spi-
rit of freedom and adventure connected with the emergence of alternative contemporary lifestyles.
SURF BENCH, designed by Alejandra Gandía-Blasco for #gan, the indoor brand belonging to
GANDIABLASCO, raises the rugs to a height of 55 cm above floor level fixing them to a lacquered
MDF panel fixed to a powder-coated steel plate.
“The idea for the SURF BENCH collection came easily, why not raise a rug off the ground in the
same way that a Surf board rides the waves?” explains Alejandra Gandía-Blasco.
The collection combines wool in warm and cool colours tracing ethnic patterns and motifs that refer
to different oceans and seas around the world.
