Carpet with a Rubber Sole

By Shonquis Moreno

Posted May 17, 2005

Made entirely from recycled bicycle inner-tubes, the Bicicleta is a soft carpet with a shag of wide black loops. Designed by Nani Marquina and Ariadna Miquel, it was inspired by a trip to India, where bicycling is the primary means of transportation. The Bicicleta also furthers the company’s mission of using alternative, environmentally friendly materials to create new textures for their carpets.
