Based in the midlands, 'Both' is a collaborative and creative design partnership between Ruth Waller and Lee Hewett, which thrives on a vibrant exchange of ideas from a multi-disciplinary perspective. The principle aim of 'Both' is to design, develop and manufacture innovative and functional 'textile based' products for the interior and fashion markets. As a company we are concerned with the investigation of structure, complexity and texture within constructed textiles and the modern interior. We aim to go beyond surface pattern to explore the three dimensional and structural potential of fabric, through the use of a range of innovative design and production processes.

The tradition of felted wool rugs originated in Iran in the Neolithic Age. It spanned the mountainous regions from Turkey to Mongolia where tribal nomads lived in felt-covered tents. The technique in Iran was practically extinct when Melina and Dodd Raissnia traveled to Iran together in search of felt makers. They are now using the same ancient technique to create felt rugs in Iran based on contemporary designs by Melina. For a look at the process watch our 15-minute film. You can also read an essay on the subject by Melina Raissnia for Turkotek.com. Peace Industry: Husband and wife team Melina and Dodd Raissnia are the principals and founders of Peace Industry. Before they discovered felt rugs in Iran they made peace flags.

by 54Dean The artfully folded industrial felt fastened together with bungees creates natural pockets for your monthlies or dailies to be stored and displayed.

Sunspiral Felt Rug by Melina Raissnia. The ancient method of felting is time consuming and difficult work, but it produces beautiful and durable goods. Big fluffs of dyed Nomadic sheep wool are positioned in the pattern on a canvas tarp, sprinkled with boiling water and rolled back and forth for several hours to create the thick and tightly felted rug. Each of these handmade rugs is accompanied by a video of the creative process.
