Dalton, Ga. -- Shaw Living is unveiling 57 new rugs in transitional and contemporary themes this week during the High Point market.

The new rugs include additions to the popular Impressions and the award-winning Accents collections. Also, Shaw is introducing the machine woven olefin Transitions collection of 22 rugs in contemporary designs and colors -- including rich reds, warm neutrals, golds, and soft greens accented with eggplant, brown, and vintage blue. Some also feature onyx and beige for a shiny color effect.

Impressions will grow to 49 total rugs with the addition of 17 new rugs. They include: Applause, a contemporary design with gradient color on a rich black background; and Requiem, a classic damask pattern offered in two color combinations -- black with white and blue with brown. Impressions rugs are made of soft olefin yarn in a dense construction.

Accents has been expanded with 18 new styles, bringing the total offering to 55 machine-made olefin rugs. New looks include: Animal Skins, and the zebra-like Zimbabwe.
