Elevate Your Living Room with These Top 10 Designer Rugs

Looking to elevate your living space? Here are eight designer rugs that promise to do just that:

1. The Modern Geometric

Geometric patterns introduce a contemporary vibe, and this rug style is no exception.

Selecting the Perfect Rug for Your Living Space

At Innerspace, our commitment is to offer personalised advice, helping you find a rug that complements your living room's layout and furniture.
Additionally, keep in mind the material and texture. Whether you prefer the cosy warmth of wool or the sleek sophistication of silk, ensure it matches your lifestyle and maintenance preferences. Our experts at Innerspace are available to guide you through the selection process, ensuring you select a high-quality rug that enhances your space and aligns with your style.

How to Choose the Correct Size Rug for Your Home

More Than Just Design: The GAN Women Unit

At Innerspace, we believe great design tells a story and uplifts communities. The GAN Women Unit embodies this by empowering artisans through sustainable employment. Founded in 2010, this initiative began when local craftswomen lost work due to workshop closures. Collaborating with designer Patricia Urquiola, GAN adapted traditional embroidery techniques to create the modular BANDAS collection—blending heritage with contemporary design. Since then, top designers have contributed, incorporating techniques like crochet and needlepoint into modern rugs. Each piece represents craftsmanship, resilience, and ethical production. When you choose a GAN rug from Innerspace, you’re not just elevating your space—you’re supporting artisan communities and sustainable design.
