New Designer Rug Launch 2024: The Scribble Ink Rug
We are thrilled to introduce the latest addition to our collection of vibrant contemporary rugs, new for April 2024: The Scribble Ink Rug.
The Inspiration
Sonya’s inspiration for the unique Scribble Rug collection emerged following the lifting of COVID-19 restrictions in the UK. As the world began to open up again, Sonya experienced a renewed sense of excitement and spontaneity at being able to travel – a luxury that she and many others took for granted prior to the pandemic.
This newfound, and now somewhat unfamiliar freedom felt worldwide ignited Sonya’s desire to diverge from her carefully structured and orchestrated designs, to one which represented fluidity, movement, freedom and spontaneity. The result of this, a modern irregular shape rug called ‘The Scribble Rug’.
The Design
Despite its seemingly random nature, scribbling is a deeply personal expression of the subconscious – a manifestation of thoughts, emotions, and creativity. The Scribble Ink area rug captures this essence beautifully with its freeform rug design and multiple layers of colour.
This creative artistic rug features a variety of abstract shapes and lines that intertwine and overlap, creating a visually stimulating pattern that draws lookers’ attention. The lines in the design of this odd shaped rug are organic, giving the rug a sense of movement and spontaneity. This allows for immersion into an uninhibited world of movement and freedom, open to individual interpretation. Despite this modern rug’s abstract and freeform nature, the design has a harmonious balance, with each element contributing to the overall composition.
Further emphasising its uniqueness, The Scribble Ink Rug defies convention to deliver a truly innovative take on the modern rug by being an irregular shaped rug – a current 2024 contemporary rug trend.
The Colours
Unlike the original brightly coloured Scribble Rug, this new modern rug colourway named ‘Ink’ features a rich palette of dark blues and purples, infused with a contrasting electric orange. Sonya carefully selected these hues to evoke a sense of depth and intrigue, whilst simultaneously permeating the contemporary rug with a captivating vibrancy that draws the eye and ignites the imagination.
The deep blues present in this luxury rug induce feelings of calmness and serenity, whilst the lighter shades hint at the boundless sky and sea. The ultimate emblem of the freedom and possibility the world holds, inspiring viewers to reflect upon their own limitless opportunities.
Beyond its sophisticated surface allure, this creative rug’s regal purple colours hold an emotional intensity, adding a layer of complexity to the rug’s narrative and inviting contemplation as you delve deeper into the layers of the design. It stands as a testament to the richness of human experience and the endless possibilities of self-expression.
Then there’s the electric orange – a bold accent in the 2024 luxury rug design. Its lively presence amidst the tapestry of colours on the abstract rug infuses it with vitality and optimism, symbolising the collective feelings of the world following the pandemic. As a beacon of such enthusiasm, electric orange adds a vibrant contrast to the deeper, more introspective tones of the artistic rug, creating a dynamic interplay of emotions and energies.
Together, these colours, combined with the freeform rug design and irregular shape of the rug, create a visual symphony that speaks to the soul, transforming any space into a sanctuary of style and creativity.
