Ricardo Garza Marcos created an unusual carpet design, one that is first aid-inspired. His Band-Aid carpet may not be a true sterile dressing, but perhaps he had some unusual applications in mind.
Perhaps these rugs are meant for places with imperfect floors that need covering up, or as a marketing ploy for the office of an executive of a problem-solving service company. How about as a rug in the foyer of a hospital? One thing is for certain, the Band-Aid carpet will be a conversation piece.
