Because sports and sports themes are universally enjoyed by girls and women as well as boys and men, Kalaty Rug Corporation has just added a stylish “cotton-candy pink” colorway to its wildly popular SPORTGLYPHS area rug collection designed by award-winning Brooklyn-based urban mural artist Katie Merz.
The pink colorway is just one of the newest colors added to this high-energy artist-designed rug collaboration.
At the upcoming High Point Market, Katie Merz—a pillar of the New York art scene, whose work has been commissioned by many prestigious companies and individuals in the USA and elsewhere—will be at the Kalaty showroom (IHFC, G-369) on April 27 and 28, to meet market attendees, show her newest designs and colors and demonstrate her signature glyph art.

More than just a sports-themed rug collection, SPORTSGLYPHS is “mural art for floors” that’s designed for sports fans of all ages for kids rooms, family rooms, game rooms and more. These playful rugs depict Merz’s distinctive glyph-art in spontaneous and wildly oriented hieroglyphs that are densely sandwiched together illustrating the various iconic images, actions and words that capture the energy and essence of such popular sports as baseball, basketball, football, tennis, golf, cycling and soccer.
Power-loomed of easy-to-care-for polyester yarns, SPORTSGLYPHS is one of several licensed rug collections in the growing katie merz x KALATY collaboration.
