One of the best designers of these types of floor coverings and in out opinion the most colorful are from Ottavio Missoni. A man whose entire creative life has been inspired by the possibilities of color. For him color is a means of self-expression as legitimate as any of the great works of art that are on display in the museums and galleries of the world. And this is not just his opinion; far from it. The Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, the Museum of Fine Arts in Dallas and the Costumes Museum of Bath in England all house Missoni pieces. The difference between a Missoni rugs and the more traditional works of contemporary mediums is that the Missoni pieces are textural woven pieces and not painted. This is an excellent choice when looking for a woven area rug full of rich texture.
