Diurne
Marcel Zelmanovitch and Yolande de la Villdguerin trained
respectively as an architect and painter. After discovering the
world of Tibetan rugs they decided to open a showroom together in the
heart of Paris' Latin Quarter. They realized however that the
project would be viable only if they were directly involved in the rug
making process. So they did just that.
With a Nepalese partner, they built a workshop to a size and with an
organization that promotes unique designer rugs, both in terms of
superior quality and diversity. Diurne rugs are made with
traditional craftsmanship. All the rugs are fully custom made;
exact images are generated by computer in Paris, providing a
true-to-life simulation of the rugs which is then carefully woven in the
workshop in Katmandu. This process gives the designer a unique
opportunity to custom color and custom size any Diurne rug.
