Modern Designer Rugs: 5 Designs


by: Kate Bellows

A modern rug can give any room in your home an immediate lift. Choosing one of the best rugs available on the market today (many from the houses of top designers) is an economical and simple way to give your room a lift. Outlined below are five of the best new modern designer rugs, together with a little information on how these can help you transform a room.

1. Calvin Klein Home: New Patina

A combination of wool and Luxcelle yarns ensure that the Calvin Klein Home New Patina collection is as comfortable to the touch as it is eye-catching. This selection of rugs comes in six different styles, each in a variety of sizes and in a variety of earthy tones. The rugs are created on the latest state-of-the-art looms and represent the finest work of modern rug makers. Versatile, understated and practical, these rugs would be a fine addition to any room in your home.

2. Nourison: Modern Elegance

One of the biggest names in American rug design, Nourison offer a vast range of modern rugs in their current collection, though perhaps one to consider for those seeking something stylish is a rug from their Modern Elegance range. Available in four different colours (brown, black, white and grey) and carrying the famous Liz Claiborne name, these luxurious handmade wool rugs have an elegant and timeless quality that makes them the perfect addition to the home. With a 15mm pile incorporating a stylish floral design, the New Zealand wool gives the range a touch of rare quality. Each of the four rugs is available in a range of sizes to suit any size of room in your home.

3. Brink and Campman: Xian Kids

The new range of Xian Kids rugs from Brink and Campman can give any child’s room a lift. From the wonderful Bear design, through the Fleur flower pattern, each rug will not only give your child’s room a touch of quality, but will enhance and brighten the surroundings considerably. Each rug is cut and hand-carved, ensuring the highest quality of finish and each strand is handtufted using soft 100% Japanese filled acrylic. Best of all, these rugs are hardy and easy to clean, meaning they can easily withstand even the not-so tender attention of a young child. Four designs are available, Fleur, Bear, Cube and Play, with each design having two colour options.

4. Jeff Banks: Kaleidoscope

Who says modern rugs have to be understated and traditional? Certainly not Jeff Banks; the former Clothes Show presenter may be more famous for his lines of clothing, but he has excelled himself with his new designs of bright, contemporary rugs. His Kaleidoscope range is the perfect choice for someone seeking a vibrant, bright look to his or her home decor. Handmade in China using fine Japanese acrylic yarns, the Kaleidoscope range have an opulent silky feel and its thick pile is exceedingly comfortable, yet the rugs remain practical, durable and easy to clean. The abstract colours and patterns really catch the eye and are perfectly suited to an otherwise plain room. There are six Kaleidoscope designs available in the range and each is available in three sizes

5. Calvin Klein Home: Masai

Released in 2010, the Calvin Klein Home Masai range has quickly become popular thanks to its timeless feel, durability and versatility around the home. The rug is hand woven in India and is composed of thousands of soft strips of densely constructed suede leather. The rug is luxuriant to the touch and is perfectly suited to being placed in a quiet room or living area, perhaps in front of a roaring fireplace to curl up on with a good book.

Available in a range of sizes starting at 6’x4’ and up to 10’x8’ these soft suede rugs are a timeless classic and come in a range of different styles, including light beige, brown and camel.
