Liora Manné Introduces Dimension Rug Collection

Furniture World Magazine

Liora Manné, a leader in the textile industry, known for blending art and technology to create original designs for floor coverings, fashion accessories and home furnishings is adding a new rug collection called Dimensions to her lifestyle brand. The collection merges elements of style and sophistication using the modern technique of computerized waterjets to cut designs into Liora Manné's signature fabrics. Dimensions rugs are available in three distinct patterns; the Kuba, the Wave and the Scallop. The Kuba's circular look can dress up any room of the house by combining the delicate look of a crocheted doily with the bold colors associated with Liora Manné's artistry. The Wave design is reminiscent of the ocean's perpetual currents, and the rectangular design of the Scallop pattern will add a fresh and contemporary look to any home. The colors featured in the collection range from brilliant reds and greens to the more neutral tones of buff and gray. "The Dimension collection combines traditional motifs and modern technology. These floor coverings make a quiet, yet powerful statement," says Manné. Liora Manné feels that the Dimensions collection is simpler and yet more versatile than some of the colorful and high-impact textile designs featured in her original Lamontage rugs. The designs translate well to both indoor and outdoor settings because of the material's high durability and fade-resistant qualities and can be used in a variety of decorative environments. The Dimensions collection is the latest extension to the Liora Manné lifestyle brand, which combines art and technology to create extraordinary, functional designs.
