Modern Western European 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 The modernists rejected both natural and historical references and relied primarily on industrial materials such as metal, glass, plywood, and, later, plastics.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.

Jardin De Rocaille N° 3 Rug by Clément Vuillier
Located in Geneve, CH
Jardin de Rocaille N°3 rug by Clément Vuillier
Dimensions: D 240 x W 170 cm
Materials: New Zealand wool and viscose.
Also available in other colors, designs, and dimensions.
Jardin de Rocaille is a collection of seven pieces, reinterpreted from artist Clément Vuillier’s illustration series . On one hand, “rocaille” echoing the art movement, is treated in the form of mineral extracts, stone flakes, and marble patterns. On the other hand, “Jardin” allows you to pass through large lawns with various leaves, flowers, petals, and berries, creating a fantasy garden with a scattering of rocks and a flash of lights. Manufactured with high-end wool and silk, this collection of hand-tufted rugs has a beautiful design and delicate texture, reflecting the pursuit of exquisite craftsmanship. The production technology of embossing, recessing, and carving highlights the contrast of color and texture to the utmost, reproducing a vivid garden landscape and vitalizing the space with immortal natural elements.
Clément Vuillier is a resourceful man, the child of the snowy summits, the man of the black fir trees and of the wind that beats the rocky summits of the Hautes Pyrénées. We know where we come from when we come from Bagnères de Bigorre...

Kandinsky 3 Abstract Painterly Art Rectangle Rug Large Size
By Sonya Winner
Located in London, GB
The Kandinsky Collection is a series of 3 colourful art rugs which feature painterly circular motifs woven in hand-dyed 100% New Zealand wool yarn which pay homage to Wassily Kandinsky’s vibrant palette and style.
Sonya’s love for art has always been a great inspiration during her design process. Sonya aims to capture not only the essence of Kandinsky’s artistic legacy but also to infuse the rug with a contemporary design that allows you to transform conventional floor space into functional art underfoot.
Wassily Kandinsky was a Russian painter and art theorist who played a crucial role in the development of abstract art during the early 20th century. He believed that art should express the artist’s inner emotions and spiritual essence rather copying the external world around them. This is what lead him to create work where colours and shapes interact with each other, producing a sense of movement and energy. He used bold, contrasting colours and geometric forms to convey his intense emotions provoking a powerful response from the viewer.
The Kandinsky 3 is a hand knotted, captivating rug design inspired by the abstract painting of artist Wassily Kandinsky. Kandinsky, who as a child in Moscow was fascinated and exceptionally stimulated by colour. Every knot in this rug is created by hand with meticulous precision by artisanal weavers in our best quality hand-dyed 100% New Zealand wool yarn, reflecting the intricate brushstrokes and vibrant colours reminiscent of Kandinsky’s work Concentric squares and circles (1913). The Kandinsky rugs...
