Surface Design by Michelle Weinberg, an artist living and working in Miami Beach and New York, is a series of carpets that look more like textured paintings than actual rugs. Considering that the designer has a strong painting background, this should come as no surprise. Carpets are essentially works of art for the floor. In fact, many people spend ridiculous amounts of money on a good rug than a good painting.
Abstract and eccentric, the carpets in Surface Design by Michelle Weinberg will appeal to artistic individuals living in modern homes. Adding a pop of color and stunning visuals, they are certainly not cookie cutter carpets. They don't even adhere to the classic rectangular and square shapes of common rugs, making the carpets even more eye-catching.
