Jan Kath Design
Jan Kath Design has revolutionised the world of rugs. For nearly 30 years, the brand has been shaping the international design scene with its work. While the creative language spans a broad spectrum, production remains deliberately rooted in tradition. Each carpet is crafted using centuries–old hand–knotting techniques in selected workshops in Nepal and India, certified for sustainability by the Swiss label STEP. Knot by knot, skilled artisans translate the designs into textile art. Only premium natural materials are used, including hand–combed Tibetan highland wool, fine Chinese silk, and Nepalese nettle. This balanced material composition gives the rugs a distinctive tactile quality and a deep, layered presence beyond the surface.
Staying true to its industrial roots, Jan Kath Design at Pakhus 11 explores the dialogue between contemporary design and traditional craftsmanship. A Nepalese loom reveals the knot–by–knot process behind each carpet, while a rug sample bar invites visitors to discover a rich variety of textures and material compositions shaped by this ancient art. A lounge area offers space to pause and experience the rugs up close.
