nuLOOM Contemporary Rugs

Interior designers have long looked to New York–based nuLOOM for its dizzying array of high-quality floor coverings. Here, you'll find some of the company's more exuberant designs, which are wonderfully appropriate for warmer weather. Bright colors and bold geometrics dominate (though there are plenty of intricately patterned neutrals, too), and all are handmade of top-quality wool.

Backstory

Every well-designed room starts with a beautiful foundation — and interior designers and architects have long looked to rug-maker nuLOOM to provide it. The NYC-based company specializes in high-quality contemporary floor coverings in graphic floral patterns, bold animal prints, and urbane stripes; it also carries hand-knotted rugs created in collaboration with Dutch design team Brink & Campman. But nuLOOM remains best known for its fluffy flokatis, super-soft wool carpets that come in colors ranging from traditional naturals to poppy pinks.
