Manufactured by Spanish rug and carpet company Nanimarquina and designed by NEL, the Global Warming rug is just as much about the message as it is of the form:

Global Warming contrasts the comfort and softness of a rug with a thorny problem that is specific to our time. Following the age-old tradition of using rugs as a means for communication and a cultural record, NEL is portraying global warming in a scene that invites us to reflect on our impact on today’s world.
