Ashtari Carpets at BADAFF in Ghent!

We are beyond excited to launch six unique Léon Stynen rugs, bringing his iconic designs to life through masterful hand-knotting and timeless craftsmanship.

At BADAFF 2025, three leading Belgian design brands—Ashtari Carpets, DARK Lighting, and Urbastyle—come together to reinterpret the architectural legacy of Léon Stynen.

Ashtari Carpets (www.ashtaricarpets.com) unveils a collection of six hand-knotted rugs, inspired by Stynen's original Écossais motif, where architectural precision meets artisanal craftsmanship.

DARK Lighting (www.dark.be) revives the SL 53 lamp, Stynen’s timeless 1953 design, reimagined for modern interiors.

Urbastyle (www.urbastyle.com) transforms Stynen’s architectural language into contemporary concrete designs, adding structure and depth to today’s spaces.
