Almost Optical Illusion Mats

Eley Kishimoto Rugs Are Covered in Mesmerizing Prints

— August 19, 2012 — Art & Design
This collection of Eley Kishimoto rugs is a sophisticated and alluring set of floor coverings. Kishimoto paired with London home store Aram to produce the line of almost optical illusion-printed rugs. Each print comes in a range of different colors, and all of the rugs are produced by hand.

Eley Kishimoto and Aram will be displaying an exhibit entitled 'Living with Patterns' together in September as a part of the London Design Festival. The exhibit will show the duo's non-fashion products in-store.

The nautical knotted rope print is my favorite print. It is on point with the sailor trend and is able to fit with many different decor schemes. This collection of Eley Kishimoto rugs is available for pre-order online now.

1. Optical Illusion Prints - The demand for visually captivating and sophisticated floor coverings offers a chance for businesses to explore innovative designs and prints on rugs and carpets.

3. Handmade Products - The increased interest in handmade products gives manufacturers the chance to expand their clientele by creating more unique and individualized designs on rugs and carpets.
Industry Implications

2. Fashion - The fashion industry's emergence into non-fashion products opens the way for collaborations with other industries such as home decor and interior design.
3. Manufacturing - The manufacturing industry can leverage the demand for handmade and unique designs of floor coverings by incorporating artisanal skills into product production.
