Modern Indian Rugs
MODERN STYLE
The late 19th and early 20th centuries saw sweeping social change and major scientific advances — both of which contributed to a new aesthetic: modernism. Rejecting the rigidity of Victorian artistic conventions, modernists sought a new means of expression. References to the natural world and ornate classical embellishments gave way to the sleek simplicity of the Machine Age. Architect Philip Johnson characterized the hallmarks of modernism as “machine-like simplicity, smoothness or surface [and] avoidance of ornament.”
Early practitioners of modernist design include the De Stijl (“The Style”) group, founded in the Netherlands in 1917, and the Bauhaus School, founded two years later in Germany.
Followers of both groups produced sleek, spare designs — many of which became icons of daily life in the 20th century. The modernists rejected both natural and historical references and relied primarily on industrial materials such as metal, glass, plywood, and, later, plastics. While Bauhaus principals Marcel Breuer and Ludwig Mies van der Rohe created furniture from mass-produced, chrome-plated steel, American visionaries like Charles and Ray Eames worked in materials as novel as molded plywood and fiberglass. Today, Breuer’s Wassily chair, Mies van der Rohe’s Barcelona chair — crafted with his romantic partner, designer Lilly Reich — and the Eames lounge chair are emblems of progressive design and vintage originals are prized cornerstones of collections.
It’s difficult to overstate the influence that modernism continues to wield over designers and architects — and equally difficult to overstate how revolutionary it was when it first appeared a century ago. But because modernist furniture designs are so simple, they can blend in seamlessly with just about any type of décor. Don’t overlook them.

Contemporary Design Rug Burgundy Peach and Coral Hand-Knotted Wool
Located in New York, NY
The Untitled Collection was designed by Jaime Derringer: artist, blogger, and founder of Design Milk. Jaime’s intuitive and fluid brushstrokes are reminiscent of Japanese Shodo calligraphy. The collection is free of spacial limitations, reaching beyond conceptual expectations of space and style. The designs are imagined to spill beyond the border or “coloring lines” of the rugs.
Woven concepts’ use of a symmetrical weave to innovate texture was likewise the outcome of an experimental product development process. Much like Zen calligraphy...

Wool Tapestry Rug by Frank Stella, 1970
By Frank Stella
Located in Milan, IT
Frank Stella is one of the leading figures of the Minimalist movement. Initially influenced by the Abstract Expressionism of Jackson Pollock and Franz Kline, towards the late fifties he moves to New York where he abandons the Expressionist quest for color in favour of flat and Minimalist surfaces, following the work of Barnett Newman and Jasper Johns. He soon inaugurated a series of works emphasizing the painting as an object in itself rather than as a representation of something else. Faithful to Minimalist philosophy, the canvas for him is nothing but a flat surface with color yet suggestive of a third dimension.
Towards the early 1960s there was a lot of interest in America in adopting textiles as a medium for artistic expression. In 1962 the World House Galleries in New York organized an exhibition composed of 26 carpets designed by leading Modern Art Masters such as Léger, Mirò and Picasso together with others from the contemporary designer Miriam Leefe. In 1968 the Charles E. Slatkin Galleries in New York opened an exhibition entitled 'American Tapestries', showing the textile artworks of twenty-two Pop Art and Abstract Expressionist artists. These artists were actively involved in the translation of their pictorial language in the textile medium, designing the preparatory cartoons which would then be sent to India for them to be made into weavings. Their interest towards the expressive qualities of three-dimensional flat surfaces found its quintessential expression in the art of the carpet.
This motivated a second exhibition in 1970 entitled 'Modern Master Tapestries', where the term 'tapestry' was applied both to wall hangings as well as floor coverings. The aim of this exhibition was to give a modern configuration to the ancient art of weaving.
