The Capas collection is focused on the creation and use of layers of color, tone and shadows to generate intense depth. It is a very easy rug to integrate and adaptable to any space, due to the presence of a wide range of chromatic tones.

Hahn's starting point for the Layers collection is his notion that shadows are never black or gray, but rather filled with color and geometry. The designer's goal was to create a simple, lightweight rug that had a casual feel, while being complex in its use of color and formation of depth.

To achieve this, nanimarquina and Hahn intensively studied the specifics of the Kilim weaving technique in search of new ways to distribute color. After months of research, nanimarquina and Hahn developed a new type of loose Kilim structure that allows warp and weft colors to be mixed. Normally the warp in a Kilim is invisible. In the case of Capas, defining a different warp density has allowed it to flourish, providing a visual texture where the colors present interfere with each other throughout the rug. This unique texture creates a light and dark effect and great depth without being heavy. Like the layers of air in the atmosphere that reflect light and cast shadows.

“By loosening the weave and using a thicker warp, we managed to make new colors and different textures visible, celebrating intensified depth and tones.” – Mathias Hahn.

Each rug has a main color, a complementary tone and a darker gradient that in the composition gives the illusion of a shadow projected on the floor. Each rug is a color accord of a certain main color.
