Inkblot Rug Collection by Lindstrom Rugs

Quick: tell me what you see!

Lindstrom Rugs’ latest collection takes inspiration from the psychological world’s beloved testing method we’ve all come across that aims to give insight into our personality and emotional well-being. The Rorschach test’s infamous inkblots exhibited almost perfect bilateral symmetry and eye-catching patterns that are completely unforgettable. Designed by Erik Lindstrom, founder of the company, the Inkblot Collection evokes similar feelings of nostalgia with their own graphic, black, gray, and white rug patterns.

Each inkblot pattern was created by hand beginning with the concept all the way through production, from the original ink and water on paper to the artisan weavers in Nepal.
