What makes a rug truly 'modern'?
The modern rug favours clean geometries, contemporary colour palettes and materials worked in unconventional ways. It doesn't necessarily mean minimalist: it can be colourful, full of graphic patterns or rich textures.
What styles of modern rug exist?
Scandinavian rugs feature reduced palettes with essential graphic motifs. Boho chic mixes ethnic inspiration with warm colours. Industrial plays with dark tones. Mid-century reinterprets 1950s-60s graphic patterns.
What materials do modern rugs come in?
Wool offers warmth and durability. Viscose gives elegant lustre but is delicate. Polyester is stain-resistant. Cotton is lightweight and often machine washable. Jute brings natural texture for boho interiors.
