Pond – Stone
Designed by Studio Mellone for Nordic Knots. Hand knotted from New Zealand wool for refined, enduring softness.
Inspired by natural light and the calm found in architectural spaces that open onto nature, Pond captures the shimmer and stillness of water in a meditative interplay of form and reflection.

STUDIO MELLONE
Trained as an architect and shaped by decades in New York’s design world, Mellone brings a studied eye to everything he creates. Known for subtlety, precision, and restraint, this debut product collection translates his approach to texture, materiality, and form into a new medium.
The video opens with views of São Paulo’s skyline and a green vintage car carrying rolled rugs driving through the city. It then cuts to atmospheric scenes from designer Andre Mellone’s home, where the Nordic Knots rugs — Indore, Dots, Pond, and Normandie — are placed throughout warm, modern interiors with wood, glass, and lush greenery.
Voice-over in the video says:
“Sao Paulo traffic loud, unpredictable. And everyone thinks they're in the fast lane. But hidden in the chaos, fleeting moments become inspiration. Sometimes there's a sharp angle or a curve, never intended to be beautiful. Design isn't really the things you choose. It's the things that use you.”
