New textile trends focus on the creative use of decoration in fabrics and decorative rugs. In the rug industry, tactile surfaces beneath our feet bring an air of novelty and enthusiasm to our living spaces. While weaving techniques remain deeply rooted in tradition, innovations are expressed through ornamentation. Vibrant patterns, intricate designs, and new layout schemes on the ground reinvent the approach to decor, imparting a fresh and dynamic aesthetic to our environments.
Named after Turan, the Etruscan goddess of love, beauty, and fertility, known to the Romans as Venus and to the Greeks as Aphrodite, this rug (on cover) by Illulian is designed to embrace and protect. Its irregular perimeter mimics the warmth of a welcoming hug, while concentric ‘frames’ of varying colors and geometric patterns converge toward a delicate and ever-changing core made from fleeces of different heights, offering a highly tactile experience. Turan is an invitation to lie back, be coddled, and reconnect with your emotions.
Talk Talk by Nanimarquina, design Jaime Hayon
Nanimarquina presents Talk Talk, a new collection by designer Jaime Hayon that invites a conversation between art and design. Talk Talk emerges from Hayon’s work as an artist, exploring the relationship between art and design through his iconic faces, both playful and expressive. With a vibrant, ironic, and colorful design, each rug features organic shapes and bold colors that invite interaction. This collection marks the fifth collaboration between Hayon and Nanimarquina. Hand-tufted and woven from New Zealand wool, the rugs merge creativity with functionality, fostering cozy and creative environments.
Thank You For Sending Me An Angel by Dedar
A fur coat? No, a fabric. Thank You For Sending Me An Angel, from Dedar’s 2025 collection, is a velvet, to be exact, with an unusually long pile to evoke the soft fleece of a lamb. It comes in white and three other bright colors (sand, pink and light blue), as well as a dark charcoal version, the classic black sheep. It is made from kid mohair, a precious fiber, blended with 34 percent cotton. Suitable for upholstery.
Cocktail by Métaphores
Cocktail by Métaphores
Cocktail, from the L’Echappée (The Escape) collection presented by Métaphores during Paris Déco Off, celebrates the energy of the 1960s and 1970s with a bold, dynamic design and geometries reminiscent of jukeboxes or vintage pinball machines. Designed for upholstery or as a curtain, its composition (88% polypropylene-12% polyester) makes it suitable for indoor and outdoor use. It comes in seven colorways that weave together citrus tones and darker hues. Fun fact: their names refer to alcoholic beverages such as tequila, cognac or pastis. And they evoke the warmth of an endless summer.
Aventura, design Pierre Frey
Pierre Frey’s Fantasy collection is an exuberant mix of inventions that combine the elegance of the 1950s with the free spirit of the 1970s. It is a kaleidoscope of styles in rugs, upholstery and curtains that juxtapose modernity and tradition with a strong graphic sense. As in Aventura, where the organic decor is inspired by rocky stratifications, but also looks like a landscape reflected on a stretch of water barely rippled by the wind. The design is entirely embroidered, with overlapping motifs that give the fabric, designed for decorative curtains, a particularly dense and full-bodied look.
