Abstract motifs
Talking visual language
Abstract motifs are all about shapes, lines, rhythms, colours and contrasts that you don't immediately recognise. This allows you to put your imagination to work and discover something yourself. Abstract rugs are often lively and expressive, although you will also find variants with subtle tone-on-tone motifs. These rugs add value in minimalist, modern or timeless interiors to which they add tension and colour.

As a result of what you pair your abstract area rug with, it can lend itself to certain themes and styles, but with a different decor or furniture combination, it can reveal a totally different style. Hence, abstract rugs can be used in a variety of spaces and styles, as their interpretive nature allows them to fit into many different styles.

As an example, consider a blue and gray rug with bronze accents. The mood and style of an abstract rug is heavily influenced by what you decorate it with. In nautical style, blue and gray are common colors, so a rug in this color scheme will fit in with seashells, ocean art, and other coastal décor. Due to its bronze and cool tones, the rug can also be paired with an industrial style of metal and copper, as it also has bronze and cool tones. As a final note, bronze can look like wood tones and can be mixed with both contemporary and modern decor. As you can see, an abstract rug can fit with many design styles based on the overall architecture of the room, the furniture style, and the accessories and artwork you pair it with.
