Esti Barnes

Kyoto is a hand-tufted wool silk rug that channels the quiet poetry of Japanese design. Inspired by Hashimoto Naotsugu’s brush-stroked washi textures, this Japanese inspired wool rug translates subtle tonal shifts into tactile form, creating a minimal monochrome rug that sits lightly yet purposefully in a space. Sculptural pile variations lend depth, allowing the piece to read as a gentle sculptural wool rug—artful underfoot, calm in presence, and crafted in small batches by Topfloor.

Dimensions:

80 x 200cm      

About the designer:

Topfloor by Esti Barnes creates artful floor coverings that honour texture, form, and the quiet power of craftsmanship. Each rug is rooted in material exploration—hand-tufted, hand-knotted, or woven in small batches using carefully selected yarns. Esti’s background in graphic design informs her bold yet balanced compositions, while her process remains grounded in experimentation and intuition. Drawing from nature, travel, and contemporary art, her designs speak softly but with intention. Across every surface and silhouette, the studio embraces timeless design, tactile detail, and sustainable making.
