Have you considered trying a pointy edge design for your Kolam? Stick to traditional shapes and geometric patterns but give it a fresh twist by adding sharp edges to the outermost layer. It's a simple yet creative way to bring a modern touch to this classic art form.

4. The minimalistic magic

If you're into a clean aesthetic, a minimalist design is the way to go! Use basic geometric shapes to craft a small, symmetrical pattern at your entrance. These kolams often feature white as the main colour, accented with bold contrasting shades to create a visually striking effect that truly stands out.

5. Spiraling swirls

Add some flair with a swirling design! Begin at a central point and create curvy lines that spiral outward. Use different shades to accentuate each swirl, giving you a lively and dynamic kolam that's quick to make and eye-catching.
