Designer Rugs

Designer rugsDesigner rugs are decorative fabrics designed by interior or textile designers. Although the majority belongs to the category of modern carpets, there are many examples of vintage designer rugs. They are hard to classify as their appearance and composition depends on a vision of a particular artist. Usually, they are bold and well-thought-out, ready to become statement elements of décor.

The designer rug selection brings a creative modern eye to rug design. Among others, it is a mix of eclectic and abstract patterns. Many of the designer rugs subtly recall elements of traditional carpet-weaving. They include organic forms like the branches and flowers of antique Oriental rugs.

Some designer rugs draw from works of art or early modern 20th century rugs. For example, one of our more recently curated collections features a Nigerian cloth pattern by Kim Alexandriuk. It evokes traditional tribal patterns but assembles them with a more modern sensibility. Alexandriuk also does a riff on traditional Berber rugs. She uses their traditional materials and style of weaving. By those means, he creates a modern mélange of rectilinear and curved shapes in a simple two-tone palette. Ann Getty and Associates works with a traditional floral pattern. However, she shatters the tradition with its exuberant coloration and the non-standard arrangement.

Designer rugs by James Andrew take three colors and lay them out in a simple manner. The arrangement features a circle contained within a field of rectangles and squares. At the other extreme, William Sofield uses a subdued palette of browns. He punctuates it by small busts of green and ochre as a backdrop to a deceivingly primitive-looking pattern. The pattern recalls the sun, moon, and stars all laid out in a non-linear manner across a subtle checkerboard field.
