In ancient China the koi, especially in its coloured
mutations, was regarded as a holy fish. The koi symbolized
strength, wisdom, perseverance and luck. Ancient myths
recount about a great black dragon that terrorized the
world from its hidden lair behind a magnificent waterfall.
Despite many attempts no hero had ever succeeded in
destroying the beast. Until one day, when a large koi was
seen swimming in the river and up the waterfall. Once
it had made it up to the lair it suddenly transformed
into a white dragon, which managed to defeat the black
dragon after a fierce battle. From then onwards, recount
the myths, the koi enjoyed its sanctified status in both
Chinese and Japanese cultures.

In cooperation with world-class Belgian carpet
manufacturer BIC Carpets, Edward van Vliet launched a
series of flat woven rugs with a wonderful range of intricate
designs. Inspired on Asian themes and mythology, the
dragons and koi seamlessly flow into a landscape of
abstract, geometrical shapes, hinting of mantras and
flower petals. Next to the jubilant Tattoo Koi, Tattoo
Dragon and Tattoo Hexagon designs, the series envelops
a range of rugs with a more subtle rhythm, showing
patterns related to astronomical discovery and seafaring.
The rugs are designed to be used in a modular fashion;
without traditional borders, they can be mixed and
matched freely. The use of strong, yet lightweight acrylic
chenille allows the designs to be thin enough to allow for
overlapping compositions on floors, application on walls
and, because of their durability, even outside on terraces
and patio’s.
