Since they're typically designed to lay completely flat, it's not often that you think of a rug as sculptural—but designer Elisa Strozyk's Colored Wooden Rugs have a lot of dimension.
Because the rugs are made from many flexible wooden pieces, it's possible to crumple the rugs into a shape that can support itself or arrange them to lay completely flat on the floor. In addition to including plenty of interesting shapes, the rugs also are infused with plenty of bright colors and patterns, making it possible to configure them in an endless amount of ways for display purposes. Blending function and form, these rugs are pieces of home decor that mix being highly artful with practicality.
