Axial Ladder — Beni Mrirt Sand Registers
Axial Ladder — Beni Mrirt Sand Registers (236 × 286 cm)
A contemporary Beni Mrirt in undyed sand wool, drawn with taupe linear registers that form a central axial path with ladder-like offsets and nested rectangles. The pile is plush and even; the profile is clean with bound edges for a modern finish—quietly architectural and extremely soft underfoot.
Glyph Reading
The axial threshold system stages a procession of gates—wayfinding, protection, and measured return. Parallel bands act as axis recall and “encoded time,” marking cadence across the field while the open ground holds calm. Energetically, the layout centers a room and invites focused, grounded flow.
