Artisanal rug company Pampa has evolved its ongoing partnership with multi-disciplinary interior design studio We Are Triibe, welcoming a new colourway to the duo’s FORMA rug collaboration. The addition introduces an olive and camel combination to the FORMA palette, referencing the dense hues of the Australian bushland.

Based in Byron Bay, Pampa has become renowned for handcrafted rugs and textiles that harmonise the robust tactility of natural materials with striking geometric motifs. The company works with artisans, small-scale farmers and social enterprises across Latin America, including in remote areas of Argentina, the home country of Co-Founder and Global Director Victoria Aguirre. By cultivating long-term, ethically based relationships with these growers and makers, Pampa supports the preservation of Latin American culture and heritage.

With a propensity for natural materials and a design language rich in craftsmanship, We Are Triibe imbues the FORMA collection with its signature warmth and elegance.

The FORMA rug collection was introduced in mid-2022 in a collaboration that marked design studio We Are Triibe’s first foray into rug design. With a propensity for natural materials and a design language rich in craftsmanship, We Are Triibe imbues the FORMA collection with its signature warmth and elegance. The new olive and camel colourway commemorates one year since the collaboration commenced, extending the palette whilst honouring Pampa’s dexterity with geometric form.

All designs in the FORMA series are available in standard sizes, together with custom, made-to-order measurements for rugs and runners. For every sale from the FORMA collection, Pampa will plant five trees through its partnership with environmental charity One Tree Planted, actively contributing to vital reforestation projects around the world.
