Blackboard entry by Glauco Diogenes

A Creative Pool project by Glauco Diogenes (Brazil)

The Amazon rainforest, breathes biodiversity. It is the meeting of fauna, flora, tropical fruits, indigenous artwork, among other resources. In order to bring this great universe into each house, By Kamy - already established as the main designer rugs from South America, particularly in Brazil - along with the Graphic Designer, Glauco Diogenes, created the Vektorial Amazon carpet.

One piece full of challenges: For Diogenes, who had to carry all his expertise already known in his two-dimensional drawings, for the manufacture of his first physical product and Kamy By that, with its know-how, managed to interpret that dream.

Each section of the carpet transmits sensorial experiences, where each one will have their own thoughts. It is impossible to limit all the possibilities of Vektorial Amazon. Every day, a new scenario is presented to the eyes of those who carefully observe the piece. You can even play! You can rotate the rug, seeing new animals, feel different sensations, letting yourself engage. "It's like walking into a beautiful forest. At every step, an incredible surprise presents daily, either by the light or state of mind, "says Diogenes.

The Vektorial Amazon is a cosmopolitan product: the concept and style are totally Brazilian, but the manufacturing is made in Nepal. And that translates the concept of By Kamy. "The Vektorial Amazonia is rich for its love story. No matter where or by whom it was made. The collective is more important and that makes the piece a true work of art", says Francesca Alzati, carpet designer and partner-owner of the brand.

Available upon request, the carpet is the result of ten months of work because the complexity of the design required a high skilled hand weaving. Another essential item was the mixture of colors, which should look like a brushstroke. That mix of almost 100 colors were responsible for the "live" effect of the carpet.
