Plate 180 Rug by Guna Stölzl
The Plate 180 Rug is a striking Bauhaus design by Gunta Stölzl featuring a geometric composition of horizontal bands and blocks. The rug displays a modernist aesthetic with bold color blocking, incorporating pink, black, white, and beige tones arranged in a rhythmic pattern. The design is characterized by thick black horizontal stripes alternating with thinner bands of lighter colors, creating a strong visual contrast and sense of movement.
This runner-style rug exemplifies the Bauhaus school's approach to textile design, combining functionality with artistic expression through its abstract geometric patterns and careful balance of colors. The design demonstrates Stölzl's masterful understanding of composition and her influential role in modernist textile design during the Bauhaus period.
As the only female master of the Bauhaus, textile artist Gunta Stölzl is arguably the single most influential figure in the modern history of Western woven art. Under her leadership, the school's weaving workshop was transformed from a neglected department to one of its most successful facilities. During her tenure, she updated the focus from pictorial work to more industrial designs, introducing radical ideas from the world of modern art to weaving, and initiated experiments in materials and methods that helped shift weaving into the modern age.
