GUS MODERN DEBUTS FIRST RUG COLLECTION AT HIGH POINT MARKET

Part of Gus Modern's new area rug collection, Fall 2017, the high-pile New Zealand wool Element rug features a Modernist color field inspired by traditional patchwork quilts.

TORONTO -- Canadian home furnishings maker Gus Modern plans to release its inaugural rug collection, called Fall 2017, at the upcoming spring High Point Market, running from April 22-26.


The inaugural collection features three styles (Element, Hatch and Avro), each available in three sizes and two colorways. The range is manufactured in India and features a suggested retail price ranging from $695-$950.

"Creating an area rug collection was the logical next progression for Gus Modern," said Cara Peticca, marketing coordinator with the Toronto company, whose goods are sold via high-end retailers such as ABC Carpet & Home, HD Buttercup and Lillian August.


The new contemporary kilim Hatch rug by Gus Modern Design features a minimalist inspired abstract rug, handcrafted of New Zealand wool with a serged-edge finish.


The new Avro rug by Gus Modern Design features a sujan pile rug, hand knotted with a subtle textured pattern designed to create understated tonal variations.
