Return to Authenticity - Color Reform

Color Reform, ABC Carpet & Home’s new line of modern rugs, is actually a collection of vintage Turkish carpets salvaged from the “rug graveyard” and re-colored in vibrant, stylish hues. According to Graham Head, the vice-chairman of the company's carpet division, first, the rugs are stripped of their original colors; then they are dyed colors like hot pink, red, purple or green. A 6-by-9-foot rug (shown in blue), is about $2,600; a 6-by-2 1/2-foot (shown as the yellow runner), is about $800. These authentic rugs start out as traditional design element for your home, but end up a conversation piece on your floor!
