Brutalist geometry. Cool palette.
The Marabu is Greg Natale's tribute to 1970s Brutalism -- the blocky, slightly surrealist architecture of the Marabu Discoteca rendered in hide. Its geometric shapes have a raw, sculptural quality that reads powerfully in larger sizes, and a quiet graphic authority in smaller ones. The Cool colourway combines saturated dyed Navy and Light Green with natural Gray, White Speckle and cool Tan -- a palette that feels both bold and considered, and works particularly well in contemporary interiors with concrete, stone or pale timber.

Part of the Altro Mondo collection by Greg Natale for Art Hide, a range of hide floor and wall coverings inspired by the radical architecture of iconic Italian discotheques from the 1970s to the 1990s. The Marabu rug was inspired by Greg Natale's deep appreciation for 1970s Brutalism and the iconic Marabu Discoteca.
