Translating Inspiration

Experience Crafted Convergence, an intriguing soft surface portfolio inspired by Durkan’s collaboration with the Museum of Indian Arts & Culture and the Museum of International Folk Art in Santa Fe, N.M. Crafted Convergence patterns draw inspiration from broad and varied sources—from Native American pottery and baskets to everyday Japanese and African garments. Translating the inspiration into Durkan’s broadloom and carpet tile, the design team chose to ennoble the original materials rather than replicate them. The collection celebrates the skillful use of negative and positive space so elegantly rendered in the handmade originals from cultures continents apart.
