O&A London’s Patagonia Collection: A Fusion of Art, Nature, and Craftsmanship
In the world of interior design, few elements have the transformative power that rugs possess.
And when these rugs are birthed from a marriage of artistic genius and a profound appreciation for nature, the outcome is nothing short of spectacular. Creative duo designer Anna Agapova and architect Oleg Klodt recently introduced their latest collaboration for O&A London to the world of luxury interiors: The Patagonia Collection, produced in association with Riviere Rugs.
The name "Patagonia" isn't just a title; it's a statement. It echoes O&A London's commitment to intertwining nature's most arresting visuals into the fabric of their designs. It's a nod to the awe-inspiring landscapes of Patagonia, symbolizing the brand's deep-rooted bond with the environment. This connection is familiar; following the accolades received for their debut collection, Caledonia, Oleg and Anna have again chosen to craft patterns imbibing nature's unparalleled allure.
Collaborating with the esteemed British brand, Riviere Rugs, the Patagonia collection is more than a testament to design. Each rug stands as a beacon of sustainable production, meticulously handcrafted in the eco-conscious Kathmandu Valley workshops in Nepal.
Each of the four mesmerizing designs embodies the region's captivating landscapes and nature scenes.
Serenity - a state of being calm, peaceful and untroubled.

The glaciers of Patagonia, timeless and vast, laid the foundation for the 'Eternity' design. More than just a visual treat, the rug evokes a sense of permanence. Through the myriad blue shades dancing across its surface, one can almost hear the harmonious tunes of ancient ice.

An homage to the vast expanse where the sky kisses the earth, 'Infinity' presents a delicate pattern embodying endless horizons.

The Patagonia Collection is an artistic journey, a tribute to the planet, and a call to rekindle our bond with nature. Whether you're a design enthusiast or someone seeking a touch of luxury, this collection promises to be a cherished addition to your space.
