DECORATIVE TEXTILES IN FORM OF CARPET

U ovom radu osmišljen je kreativni pristup izradi dekorativnih tekstilija u obliku podnih i zidnih obloga odnosno tepiha od vunenih pompona. Inspiracija je potekla iz prirode i rada mlade argentinske umjetnice Alexandre Kehayoglou koja izrađuje tepihe koji podsjećaju na krajolik. Kao prijedlog, jedan dio vunene pređe obrađen je sredstvom na bazi fluorokarbonskih polimera (FCP) koje služi za postizanje vodoodbojnog i uljeodbojnog efekta. Ovako obrađeni vuneni pomponi odbijaju prljavštinu, vodu i ulje što omogućuje lakše održavanje tepiha. U realizirani tepih implementiran je svjetlosni sustav koji osim zvučne i toplinske izolacije tepihu daje i funkciju ambijentalnog osvjetljenja te tepih kao takav ima isključivo dekorativnu svrhu. Cilj ovog diplomskog rada je spojiti kreativnost odnosno dizajn, prirodu, tehnologiju i inovativnost u jedan proizvod koji će pronaći svoje mjesto na tržištu.A creative approach was made in this thesis towards making decorative textiles in the form of floor and wall covering made by wool pompons. Inspiration came from nature and the work of a young argentinian artist Alexandra Kehayoglou who makes carpets that associate with landscape. As a suggestion, one part of wool yarn was processed with a medium based on fluorocarbon polymer (FCP) which serves to achieve water and oil repellent effect. Wool pompons processed this way also repell dirt which means the carpet is easier to maintain. Realisated carpet has a built in light system which gives an ambient function as well as sound and heat isolation. The point of this thesis is to put together creativity, design, nature, technology and innovation into one product which will find its place on the market
