Colors: Blue Color

Zollanvari International is participating for the third time in COVER Connect New York at The Metropolitan Pavilion, Stand M05, September 14 – 16. Zollanvari will present its latest creations in this rug design hub for the US market. The show has proven to be a huge success over the past three years. 

S&H Rugs has joined the roster for Cover Connect NY 2024 from September 14 – 16, stand A07 in The Altman Building. The company will bring many new and exciting developments to this year's show. Highlights include a reimaged bird design (pictured below), using sparrows instead of the traditional Persian peacocks. These have proven to be of greater appeal to modern Western tastes over the former established design. Sparrows symbolize life and beauty, and are a marvelous addition to home décor, especially when paired with carefully curated color combinations. 

Other intros feature new Oushak designs with different and trending color combinations. Also look for new hand-crafted zero-pile pieces with vegetable dyes that showcase a distressed, antique look and texture. These are available as one-of-a-kind selections or as part of their program collection. This allows for a range of choices that cater to numerous design preferences.

Nature Prevails: Greens and Browns Rise as Greys Fade Away

Recently, S&H Rugs has observed a vigorous increase in the use of green and brown rugs in current décor. This is due to a shift in eco-conscious living, which has prompted their clients to favor colors reminiscent of nature. Earthy browns and mossy greens not only provide a sense of warmth to any space but also create a calm and fulfilling atmosphere.

While greens and browns are on their way in, gray is quietly leaving the scene. Although it was once a governing player in the design scene, designers are now pursuing more vibrant and earthy alternatives. Their clients desire individuality and are moving to embrace comfort and authenticity.

Although the market is experiencing a change in its number one player, blue shades have held their own and remain popular and reliable. Still selling steadily, blues induce a sense of calm and tranquility, which makes them perfect for living spaces or bedrooms.

S&H Rugs takes pride in its distinct colors and designs and believes that's what makes the company so unique. Competition is not deterred, it is welcomed, as they know their stunning designs set them apart from the rest of the marketplace.
