I don't think anyone can go wrong with the Losanges rug collection. Modern with a traditional touch, it is also colorfully speckled without being overly vibrant.
Designed by Ronan and Erwan Bouroullec for Spanish brand nanimarquina, the Losanges rug collection is actually inspired (loosely) by the go-to Persian rug. Fine and rustic, it was handmade by craftsmen of Northern Pakistan. Made using Afghan wool, it is unique and will definitely complement any existing home decor.
