We were invited to exhibit at the NZ Art Show, held every year in Wellington at the TSB Arena. It was an opportunity to introduce our design studio to the NZ art community as well as showcase our full Max Gimblett rug collection consisting of 14 rugs hanging from the ceiling across the back wall of the arena.

Cey Adams
Departure - 40 Years of Art & Design
In collaboration with Cey Adams we created seven designs, each one telling a story about his artistic journey and growing up in New York. ‘Harlem’ is the first design in this series where Cey plays homage to his family’s neighborhood and to his father who served in the military. ‘Cey Adams, Departure - 40 Years of Art & Design’ is a traveling exhibition and our “Harlem’ rug is included in Cey’s vast collection of work. The opening exhibition was held at Boston University, then went on to the University of Texas.
Cey Adams, Departure is now on view at the Pearlstein Gallery in Philadelphia on view through October 5.
