Knothouse is deeply committed to the design process, crafting each rug to achieve harmony in energy, proportion, and composition. Their designs are a preferred choice for both high-end interior designers and discerning retail clients. Most rugs are made to order and available in custom sizes and colours — a tailored approach that not only meets individual preferences but also supports the brand’s sustainable values. Throughout the production process, Knothouse promotes environmentally responsible practices and is a proud member of GoodWeave.

Each of Knothouse's rugs is a visual text in itself. Knots become words and patterns become sentences. You can read your own patterns in them. They become immersion, sensual, tactile voyages of discovery in weaves and knots that invite reflection and interpretation. They are art that you can walk on, beautiful as poems, if you don't actually get the words of an author. The rhythm and grammar of a poem reason with the dance, structure and windings of the threads and are broken by the knot in the same way that the sentence ends with a period that interrupts a sequence. Text means: texture, as when the author William Heinesen writes: “The present is a weaver who draws her threads from eternity, the garment she weaves is the garment of life.”

Material Matters is a platform dedicated to exploring the role of material intelligence in architecture and design. With more than 150 podcasts published and four acclaimed editions of its annual fair staged in London, the brand made its international debut in Copenhagen in 2025 as part of 3daysofdesign. The debut fair exceeded expectations and confirmed the appetite for a deeper, more material–led conversation during Copenhagen's design festival. Building on this success, Material Matters returns to 3daysofdesign, reflecting design and architecture's fascination with what materials can do—and what they should no longer be asked to do.
