Interior designer Michelle R. Smith has collaborated with Scandinavian textile maker Nordic Knots on its debut flatweave rug collection. The collaboration, born from a decade-old friendship between Smith and Nordic Knots co-founder Liza Laserow Berglund, features four rugs—three flatweaves and one all-natural jute—inspired by vintage Esprit pocket squares from the 1980s.
