Contemporary Rugs

No one can deny the emergence of Contemporary carpets as the source of decor inspiration especially from the beginning of the 20th century. Whether contemporary rugs refer to designer, art deco or arts and crafts carpets, they all have one thing in common and that is their unusual and at times minimalistic designs in uncompromising colours. The Arts and crafts embrace a wide variety of carpets, which do not have a strong common thread, other than the fact that they grew out of desire by a handful of influential artists, designers and architectures, to promote sound principles of design. William Morris the father of Arts and crafts carpets was an instrumental figure in showing that it is possible to produce beautiful hand knotted carpets in the west. Also it is worth mentioning other influential names associated with Arts and crafts carpets like John Ruskin, Voysey, Ronnie Mackintosh and also wonderful rugs made in the region of Donegal in Ireland. In the 1920s and 1930s there was a great vogue for abstract art Deco style carpets designed by artists, Architects and designers both in Europe and America. Plain often cream, blue and white rugs they became very much the taste for Modernists or minimalist homes, where they can be incorporated into a specific interior.
