Layers of rugs...

piles of carpets make me weak at the knees   I love the combination of the colours & textures at play
raw, rustic yet comfy Turkish Delight natural rug beneath a pop of colour
masculine neutrals natural blending with kilm pattern & colour anchored by the natural and kilm rug combo

I confess: I LOVE RUGS!!!

There I did it...I said my truth: that rugs are my weakness. I love to look at, shop for and buy rugs. 

My obsession for rugs began in 2006 when my husband and I moved to the Middle East for two years. Shopping for rugs there is an 'experience' that requires you to take the time to explore all the rugs made from different regions in various techniques and most importantly, to sit for awhile on a pile of carpets, sipping homemade mint tea, chatting with the owner.

Amazing Fractal 'flower of life'

Nivasa is inspired by  the Experience of the Natural World in all its Beauty and Truth, knowing that one needs the Freedom to choose objects which bring Light to Hearth and the Heart. 

This whole Earth is teeming with the Wonders of Life. 

When we reach out and touch the fabric we feel the ancientness of the Sands of the Sahara. 

When we sit amongst the cushions of the Kashmir sharing the fruit of the vine we are transported to the markets and bazaars beyond our everyday world. 

When we listen to the rain fall upon the roof and see its dancing pattern on a simple glass sunroof we reveal in ourselves our affinity with the dancing fractal patterns of nature. 

When we open our eyes in the morning light to the colours and textures of the art of our fellow beings that we share in our home, we are travelers on the eternal road of our living Earth.

What inspires you? What influences your Heart & Hearth?
