Patterns at play

Rug fields serve as a playground for geometric forms this season

-- Home Accents Today, 7/1/2008

Rug fields serve as a playground for geometric forms this season, creating a lineup infused with eye-catching patterns and shapely designs. Color joins in the fun by making patterns pop in funky combinations or go sleeker in more subtle hues. When it comes to silhouettes, there are no rules; expect to see everything from crisp and clean to jagged or round. — Lindsey Strader
