I was looking for a new living room rug with more modern colors (tealish blue, gray and pops of red), but with a traditional look.  This rug fits the bill, but the colors are a bit different than what I expected.  The blue is a bright, light blue.  There are some spots with deep red, but much of the rest is an orangey beige.  Sounds weird, but it works.  The warm colors bring out the warmth of my hardwood floors.
