The Joy collection unfolds before us, a vivid tapestry of luxury carpets that entwine colour, craft and character into a narrative rich with life and emotion. Each piece beckons with the promise of transformation, offering the beholder a chance to reimagine their space as a sanctuary, a haven imbued with warmth and vibrancy.
Craftmanship lies at the heart of this collection, each carpet a testament to the skill and dedication of those who create them. Gert Voorjans has woven a narrative through these works, one that transcends mere decoration. They embody a character that resonates with the soul, transforming spaces into expressions of individuality and taste.

Vulcano
At the core of this collection resides “Vulcano”, a design that speaks to the heart with its passionate reds and oranges. It invites the viewer to consider not just the carpet beneath their feet, but the earth itself, its upheavals, its vibrant bursts of life. The intensity of these hues is a reminder of nature’s fiery spirit, suggesting movement, energy and a bold embrace of existence. In this design, one can almost hear the rumble of volcanic activity, an echo of life’s perpetual motion.

Ocean
Yet, contrasting this fervent display are the serene aua tones of blue, a gentle whisper of calm amid the chaos. These hues evoke tranquil waters and expansive skies, instilling a sense of peace that balances the collection’s more passionate elements. The interplay between the vibrant and the serene reflects a deeper truth about life – our experiences are often a blend of tumult and tranquility, a dance between fire and water that shapes our very being.

Megalopolis
In a quieter homage, the Joy collection nods to the west lake in Hangzhou, a landscape of serene beauty where delicate lotus flowers bloom amidst still waters. Here, one finds an invitation to reflect on the nature of beauty and renewal. The elegant design, reminiscent of these blossoms, serves not only as an aesthetic choice but also as a reminder of the transient nature of life and the moments of grace that punctuate our existence.

The Line
To achieve harmony in the composition, incorporating an optical element is essential, as it serves to balance the botanical and organic abundance of nature and introduces a refreshing contrast. This interplay between the linear and the lively florals results in a cohesive and visually striking display, ensuring that each aspect enhances the overall aesthetic.
