One of the most important factors resulting in outstanding qualities of Persian carpets is their designs. In designing a carpet, the important challenge is to strike a balance between preserving the cultural and artistic values of the design and it’s innovative. Using principles of visual arts, in this paper an attempt has been made to analyze genuine carpet designs and to identify their major features. These principles may guide designers to create new designs as genuine as the past masterpieces. The principles also may be used in evaluating the innovative designs, currently being used in Persian carpets. Applying these principles to some innovative carpet designs reveals that most of the unsuccessful designs suffer from lack of cultural values, and poor designing, composition and positioning. The paper also recommends some what-to-do and not-to-do for those carpet designs that are meant to be innovative.
