MAP INSPIRATION FOR SOPHISTICATED RECEPTION RUG

Imagine waiting in the reception area and realizing the fascinating design beneath your feet not only looks like a map, it really is a street plan of the local area. This visually intriguing complement to the corporate office decor was developed from a formal map but the end result is a simplified abstract presentation. Impeccably crafted in a tonal grey palette that carefully relates to the table above it, the rug adds a cool balance to the warm surrounding space. Two levels of cut pile and the decorative addition of shiny nylon add depth and polish.
