There's nothing like a big cozy carpet to keep your feet warm against cool tiles or lacquered wood, and the king of contemporary area rugs is definitely the Sail Rug by Luca Nichetto.
The mat was created for Nodus and comprises an abstract shape and a smaller overlapping add-on. The extra piece can act as a simple extension, and better yet, it can even become a seat of its own. A really comfy carpet can take you away from sitting in even the plushiest couches, and this unusual home accessory supplies a backrest for sitters should they so desire. The sail-like component of the Sail Rug by Luca Nichetto can lean against a wall, or stand up on its own to act as a room divider.
