The AMI Collection, in collaboration with Tai Ping Carpets, draws from the warmth of handcrafted knitwear and the elegance of natural materials. Each design - WA, AN, IKOI, SEI, KARA, and IYASHI - reinterprets traditional cable-knit patterns through sculptural hand-tufted techniques and pure wool textures.
Soft curves, precise geometry, and intricate finishing such as needlepoint and carving bring dimension and depth, while an autumnal palette of sage, mustard, and burnt orange adds quiet richness.
A tribute to heritage and memory, the collection reflects Tai Ping’s technical mastery and AB Concept’s intimate design language.

We are proud to introduce the AMI Collection, a new collaboration with Tai Ping Carpets

Rooted in memory and materiality, AMI reimagines the timeless elegance of hand-knitted cable patterns into six sculptural wool rugs. Inspired by Ed’s grandmother and the designers’ own home in Karuizawa, Japan, the collection reflects a quiet luxury.

Using advanced hand-tufting techniques, Tai Ping artisans brought the designs to life with nuanced textures, varying pile heights, and intricate finishing such as needlepoint, crochet, and carving.

The collection will debut at the Tai Ping London showroom during this year’s London Design Festival, from September 13–21.

Marble Shopping! ✨

As designers, we craft emotional journeys, and we bring that passion to every project we take on.

From the finest details to the boldest materials, every choice is made with purpose. When it comes to stone, our team visits artisans in person, thoughtfully selecting pieces that not only meet our high standards for quality, but also resonate with the spirit of the project. For us, it’s never just about aesthetics—it’s about creating meaningful, memorable experiences.

✨ Introducing the Bangle Collection, in collaboration with .tableware.jp_official ✨
Inspired by the timeless elegance of jewelry, this collection mirrors the beauty of bangles—cherished as statement accessories. With an intricate balance of form and function, each piece is crafted from high-quality porcelain, transforming everyday dining into an elevated experience. A true fusion of style and sophistication.
Seen here is the Ocean Bangle Series, a highlight of the collection, takes inspiration from the mesmerising textures of the sea - sea urchins, clamshells and seashells - translated into delicate ceramic bowls and plates. Designed to evoke the elegance of stacked bangles, the series engages the senses, encouraging a tactile connection with the vessel that carries the food.
