Yggdrasil by Rainlight

Yggdrasil, the tree of life in Norse mythology, stands at the center of the cosmos. Its roots are tended by the three sisters of fate Urd, Verdandi, and Skuld who represent the past, present, and future.

This rug collection brings these timeless themes to life through a heartfelt remix of London graffiti, paying tribute to the voices of the street and the ancient wisdom that binds us all. Each rug in the Yggdrasil collection tells a story:

  • Yggdrasil: The design depicts the branches of the World Tree spreading out from the center, creating a kaleidoscopic effect of ever-changing creation.

  • Urd (Past): A web of dark and light memories, connections, and feelings—mysterious and beautiful.

  • Verdandi (Present): A flowing grid of elements, both large and small, in light, dark, and vibrant colors.

  • Skuld (Future): An illusion of structure, where each new moment is filled with abundant flow and blossoms.

The Yggdrasil rug collection seamlessly merges the best of British design with the profound mythology of the Norse. Exquisite design, skilled craftsmanship, and delicate natural materials come together in this collaboration. Rainlight Studio and Volver's creative lead Ksenia Stanishevski have translated visionary and bold concepts into stunning modern masterpieces.

Photographed by myself, the Yggdrasil collection captures the essence of time and nature, inviting you to bring a piece of this enchanting story into your home.
