I have been designing furniture and objects for many years. Recently Doris asked me to design a carpet for her contemporary line. It was the most fun assignment I have received in a while. I started to think about what contemporary meant. What influences would compliment a variety of environments. This African inspired rug is what best works with what I think is happening in design today. I actually contructed it from paper cutouts I made. I shaded the background with soothing neutrals and gave the forground a strong color. I love the result. The quality. Everything about it makes me feel a great sense of accomplishment.
