Kelim Untitled_AB15, designed by Alain Biltereyst for Kvadrat, translates the essence of urban signage into a striking geometric composition. With a balance of structured repetition and subtle irregularity, the rug captures the rhythmic movement of cityscapes, forming an abstract alphabet of shapes that engage the eye. As viewers explore the interplay of lines and volumes, the design reveals a dynamic harmony between symmetry and variation. Available in two inverted colorways, Shadow and Sand, Untitled_AB15 offers both versatility and sophistication, making it a compelling addition to modern interiors.

Alain Biltereyst’s abstract artworks reflect his fascination with the visual language of urban landscapes. Drawing inspiration from commercial signage, typography, and advertising graphics, his works focus on pure visual and material experiences, free from narrative constraints.
Based in Brussels, Biltereyst translates everyday designs—manhole covers, fence patterns, airplane logos—into carefully composed, small-scale paintings on thick panels. His work emphasizes layering, repetition, and recurring motifs, distilling functional design elements into striking compositions.
By isolating and reimagining these familiar visual cues, Biltereyst’s pieces blur the line between fine art and fragments of design history. His paintings, often presented as series, create a dialogue between historical abstraction and the aesthetics of daily life, offering a refined tribute to the overlooked beauty of commercial and industrial design.
