Seventh House is pleased to announce a collaboration between founder Trevor Cheney and textile designer Christopher Farr, debuting October 18th, 2025 at Seventh House Gallery. Guests will have the opportunity to experience the rugs in situ and gain insight into the collaborative process and celebrate the unveiling of this six-piece collection.

The collection is designed around three swimming pool inspired motifs, “Lanes,” “Blocks,” and “Flags,” combining Cheney’s storytelling and Farr’s textile expertise to offer audiences a unique experience of the intersection of their craft. Each rug is composed of silk and wool, some subtly illustrating their designs through gentle shifts in pile and color, others featuring more boldly contrasting hues.

“When I first encountered Trevor Cheney’s work, I was struck by his remarkable ability to distill design down to its essence. In this new collection for Christopher Farr, Trevor has stripped away the unnecessary, revealing rugs that speak in a quiet but confident voice. These are designs of restraint, of discipline, and of clarity.” said Christopher Farr. “Trevor’s approach aligns beautifully with our philosophy: that a rug should not dominate a room, but rather elevate it, anchoring everything else around it. His new designs invite contemplation. They encourage us to slow down, to notice the weave, the play of light on wool, the calm geometry underfoot. It is a collection that demonstrates what we at Christopher Farr have always believed: that great design comes not from embellishment, but from truth. Trevor has given us rugs that are precise, poetic, and enduring.” - Christopher Farr

“This collection is deeply personal to me—it draws from the rhythms and symbols of my past swimming career, from the silent anticipation on the starting blocks to the geometry of flags above the pool. Translating those memories into rugs with Christopher Farr has been a way of turning movement and discipline into something tactile, architectural, and lasting.” - Trevor Cheney

The collection will include six designs with made-to-order options available at christopherfarr.com.
