Classic Floral Patterns Meet High Fashion In These Rugs

Launch: Avenue Interior Design For Loloey Rugs

Designers Andrea DeRosa and Ashley Manhan, founders of hospitality firm Avenue Interior Design, have released a capsule collection with Italian rug manufacturer Loloey. “The inspiration was high-fashion design along with classic, rose- and peony-based floral patterns,” says DeRosa. And a nod to architecture yielded “four patterns with a geometric overlay on an abstracted floral background,” she explains. “We aimed to give them more depth with a painterly, ethereal quality–in a way that doesn’t feel overly feminine,” notes Manhan. But that’s not the only novel aspect. “We’re also the first females to collaborate with the brand, which is very exciting,” she says.
