I am a professional rug designer with over 10 years of experience. My work is inspired by oriental carpets, especially nomadic and rural rugs from Iran. These carpets feature many beautiful and amazing motifs. Iran has a rich culture and numerous historical places with extraordinary architecture. Sometimes I try to discover motifs, designs, and elements from these sources and combine them with my rug designs. The result is a new design incorporating Iranian elements. My library contains various carpet and art books that I truly love.

Do these patterns share some common mathematical rules, like the "golden ratio" from Euclidian geometry?
The whole process of creating a handmade rug, from the initial design to the actual production, follows mathematical rules. In some styles of rug design, artists use the golden ratio. I sometimes apply this rule in my work, depending on what I want to create. I'm not sure if I've shared that here, but you can definitely check the #Pegahrug hashtag.
