Freshness and warmth: the two sides of REVERSIBLE
A new and complex hand-looming technique, specially developed for this collection, combines threads of different thicknesses and materials, weaving the two finishes of REVERSIBLE at the same time: 100% virgin
wool on one side, and linen on the other. While the wool used to create REVERSIBLE offers high-quality texture and warmth, the mix of linens is a ‘breath of fresh air’, and feels light and fresh on the feet when temperatures rise. A brilliant idea that allows your space to adapt to the seasons smoothly and comfortably, naturally.
What a joy to come together to collectively introduce Gan's new collections with Kengo Kuma, Clara von Zweigbergk and Alvaro Catalan De Ocon developed with the support of Mapi Millet and Mari Carmen Tortosa from Gan.
Discover the new CRYSTAL collection like a game for the visual perception of the observer. Coloured circles seem to overlap in motion creating a three dimensional illusion and making room for different colour gradients. This is how wool, thick and resistant, recreates the transparency of glass.
Following in the footsteps of SILAÏ (launched in 2015), this new collection of indoor rugs uses the same technique -petit point- transferring traditional embroidery work to the field of contemporary rugs. Its name, of Hindi origin, refers to traditional Indian sheets, made on manual looms and known for their beautiful designs and incredible durability.
Charlotte Lancelot has created a new collection of 3 DIAMOND kilim rugs for GAN, made of recycled fibers from plastic materials (100% recycled PET).
In the line of the previous Canevas collection, Canevas Geo re-visits traditional embroidery stitches on a perforated felt sheet. The carpet results of the intertwining of three textures creating areas of different colours and density. Each carpetis shown with two pillows arranging an harmonious atmosphere.

Charlotte Lancelot had the pleasure to respond to the invitation of Gan NYC team for a very special event last Thursday evening in our NYC showroom. Many members of the press, architects and designers attended the event to discover our 2016 GAN collections.
She gave a presentation to explain the creative process and unique techniques used in her “Silai” and “Canevas” collections for GAN.
It was a great moment.
Hall 7 · Stand B20 · 4-8 Sept.
Modern, Romantic, Weightless… Charlotte Lancelot on SILAÏ is playing again with an old technique, scale and materials to create an amazing contemporary collection. GAN’s alchemy.
from 10th till 30 September 2015
The newer Diito Dansart shop recently opened and will introduce the Silaï Collection during the Design September festival from the 10th to 30th of September 2015. This will will be the opportunity to discover this collection. Making off materials (drawings, prototypes and samples) that served the project will also be exposed.
YOU'RE WELCOME FROM TUESDAY TO SATURDAY, FROM 10:30 TO 18:30 !
19, RUE DES CHARTREUX, À 1000 BRUXELLES.
Eight years ago, the belgian lifestyle magazines related the story of three architects in their early thirties embarking on a new adventure : Diito. The shop opened in the neighborhood of the Cambre abbey, on three levels of an old house : a space halfway beween a gallery and a furniture shop, exhibiting vintage pieces, selected contemporary works, prototypes...and a strong commitment to do things differently. Since then, Diito has grown. The three owners are now in their fourties, they have been joined by one more associate and, probably in search of a new challenge, they are now opening a second showroom in the Dansaert area. It will have the same principle of strict selection of objects, the same will to combine design items from all around the world but with a particular focus on smaller objects. Besides sofas, tables, lamps and other pieces of furniture selected in historic and contemporary collections, they will propose to discover a whole range of carefully selected accessories from smaller brands, sometimes less-known, or distributed for the first time in Belgium.
The Silaï collection by Charlotte Lancelot for Gan was introduced for the first time during Milan's week in April 2015.
