Toulemonde Bochart has really embraced the idea of creating visual textures that leap out at you, much like a 3D film in the cinema. The French rug design brand has assembled a healthy legion of innovative designers to render everything from rugs to pillows that burst from the canvas of your living space with an explosion of color and sensation.

Tapis Carrioca Emeraude
Géraldine Prieur’s Tapis Carrioca comes in an emerald or a coral incarnation. Arced shapes set against a green or auburn backdrop give the impression of a mosaic one can walk through. Prieur has been described as having one foot in the world of the decorative arts and the other in the world of functional design, as evidenced with these rugs that play with color and perspective.

California & California Foggy
California
Florence Bourel’s rugs are big imaginative pieces rendered by hand. The California is fiery and expressionistic, a constellation of spheres and multicolored bubbles meant to resemble the lights one sees from the cliffs of Los Angeles. California Foggy is a middle gray with subtle patches of white and light gray that appear as imprints of one’s gentle footfalls. While the California sets a room alight with visual excitement, the Foggy will tame the atmosphere with its discreet sense of détente.

Tapis Spike
Tapis Spike
estudi{H}ac – JM Ferrero has created the Tapis Spike rug, a return to form for the designer using New Zealand wool to conjure six columns in the rug that each come alive with multicolored spikes crisscrossing to and fro. Where do you place this rug? Anywhere you want. The bold colors actually make it enliven any sort of living or gathering space.
