Bloom

This carpet is playful and joyful, the colours and design somehow being completely unlike anything one would see in traditional rug design and yet sharing enough reference points to be speaking the same language. A slim inner border in a barber’s pole design of pink and yellow contains a field that is exploding with colour and exuberance. Floral designs crash into each other and the effect is of a Middle Eastern summer garden in full bloom. The outer border is a running water motif in blue and yellow enclosing a flower meander with straight tendrils that add a rigid intervention to this otherwise very botanical rug.
