Revered for her gallerist eye and offbeat accents, acclaimed New York-based
interior designer Kelly Behun debuts her inaugural collection for The Rug
Company. Photographed in Behun’s home and celebrating the city she calls
home, the collection features three rugs drawing inspiration in both form and
colour from Manhattan.
"When designing this new line for
The Rug Company I wanted to be
sure the designs and colours
could work in a multitude of
spaces and contexts, while still
maintaining a strong aesthetic
point of view.”
The ever-changing light which peeks through sky scraping midtown and
floods Central Park South with cast shadows and an unfailing evening glow is
highlighted in both Domus Blush and Domus Grey. The varying pile heights and
ribbed wool in this design is reflective of Behun’s comprehensive cosmopolitan
point of view.
Exploring the transitional tones which rest above Manhattan’s skyline at sunset,
the fading daytime blues and the arrival of tranquilizing pale pink shades is
captured in the masterful silky colour shifts of Eclipse.
