Traditional Indian designs have been strongly influenced by Iran, shown in their mainly curvilinear styles. Popular designs include very small floral motifs such as plants, palmettes, rosettes and leaves. Often the same motif is repeated through the entire rug, and borders were very similar to the motifs in the field. Indian area rugs do not have much color contrast in their rugs; the colors are mostly well coordinated to suit the Western taste. Brownish red is the dominant color. In addition to this color, light and dark green and burnt orange are also popular. In some of the new programme lines there is a wider range of color.
