Rug Made Out of Shoelaces. Kinda Awesome.
Posted by core jr | 26 Sep 2009

The shoelace rug is a "happenstantial multiple" (we love that) created by Nate Silverstein and Andrea Paustenbaugh. It moves beneath your feat, creating an ever-changing sculpture that's surprisingly comfortable and engaging. Custom versions are available, but the standard black+white versions start out at 1 meter by 2 meters, and 2 meters by 3 meters. And it's machine washable.

How many laces are in each? Well, we need to finish counting the jelly bean jar first!

More info and orders at www.shoelacerug.com.

More pics after the jump.
