Beautiful Room Size Modernist Collection Rug, Rug Type / Country of Origin: India – This modernist collection carpet is light and airy. The design is sculptural, and the artist created a feeling of three-dimensional space by varying patterns and color placement. The zigzag edge of the carpet enhances the sculptural effect of the carpet and creates a unique design feature.

The modern carpet appears to be three different pieces of carpet stacked on top of each other. The artist used differences in the dominant color to create the illusion of distance. The area that is weighted towards the blue color with broad zigzags appears to be further away than the other pieces.

The area with horizontal stripes is almost equally weighted in the blue and white design, creating the illusion of mid-tones. The area where white dominates appears to be closer and as if it is placed on top of the other pieces. The artist of this piece used the principle of shadows, mid-tones, and highlights to create the illusion of three-dimensional space. This gives it the feeling of a sculpture rather than a flat surface. The artist also added motion to the piece by using the direction of the lines. The blue zigzags look like rippling waters on a beach.

The lovely blue and white of this carpet, woven in India, add an earthy feel that is reminiscent of water. One of the more recent design trends is adding elements that connect the built world with the natural one. This carpet does both. The design has an organic flow and motion, but it also has a modern sculptural feel, too. The artist masterfully combined elements of these two worlds to create a piece that is in alignment with several aspects of modern design trends. It combines the feeling of earth and sky with modern geometric forms in perfect harmony.
