5 Art Styles that would make gorgeous carpet designs


What constitutes the most to the character of a house comes from décor that depicts the owner. Most people embed themselves on their house walls with painting they love or posters that inspire them.


Today we’re looking at the part where people include art in several ways to their home décor which not only elevates the space but also flourishes the belongingness of one to that home.

But let’s walk ahead from the traditional motif of hanging these beloved art pieces in hallways and living room walls. We’re bringing stars to the ground this time. Among the various forms of representing art, we want to take a look at how these pieces can potentially make a show’s topper carpet.


Let us dive into certain art styles that can be transformed into gorgeous rugs and carpets for your homes.


Art Nouveau

Art Nouveau is an art period featuring French style of art, architecture, and even applied art especially showcasing decorative art. It is an international art form known in various names across the globe. To simplify in English, it is modern art.


The visuals in this art form are energetic and quite compelling. The inspiration comes from early 1800s and world war I. The subjects revolve around nature and other organic items that are abstracted.


The flowing motifs of the designs in this form would look fabulous on carpet fabric. It brings out the bright underlying element of the floors and elevate the attention towards it.



Watercolor art

This is one of the most common art forms that we are introduced to in our early days itself. Watercolors are fluid and pleasing to the eye. Having pastel shades covering the floor gives out a soothing atmosphere to the place.


Watercolor paintings are predictably quite soft and go with a minimalist interior design. Especially with white tiles, watercolor carpets can strikingly elevate the blank space.



Mandala

From the depths of Hinduism and Buddhism, we have an art form so divine and rich in its history, it is one of the most enticing use of geometry. The word ‘Mandala’ means circle. It revolves around the ideas of cosmos and heavenly worlds which adds a bright aura to the concept. It inclines towards cherishing symmetry of patterns and channeling divine peace.


Mandala art has been widely used on various decorative items to add the flare of art. It would make smashing carpets for an Indian-style home décor. With bright colors, it will include a regal touch. The shapes and intricate detailing of the art carries the richness throughout the design which would lift your floor and the room itself.



Abstract Art

In most paintings that we see hanging in people’s houses or cafes is abstract art. It is potentially the highest type of art form used by the people. Abstract art is free and imaginative. It does not dwell hard on depicting reality as it is. Instead, it uses shapes, random forms & figures, and colors to express the same thing.


It is bursting with colors and brings about a curious eye of the by-passers. It is an unhinged form of art that covers a larger area nicely and thus, we would admire such designs for our floor. These designs would make great carpets as they can be adjusted to the carpet size without ruining the design.



Warli

Another traditional Indian superstar in the world of art is Warli. It is a form of tribal art that depicts the coexistence of the tribe and the forest. The art celebrates daily life activities of these tribes including harvesting, dancing, hunting, and even sowing.


The concept of Warli art of rugs is already growing on to those with a hippie heart. The use of shapes and the reflecting heritage adds much character to the space. For someone looking for rugs and carpets that aren’t generalized, Warli can be a great choice.


Rugs and carpets haven’t been given the attention they deserve. When paired well and creatively with the space and interior, it can be something truly transforming and reflective. A standout carpet will make a strong statement. So, which one are you choosing?
