The Navajo storm pattern rug is a significant cultural design, often embodying symbolic elements that relate to Navajo cosmology and storytelling. The central feature of the storm pattern rug usually includes a rectangular or square element that represents the "center of the universe," which is significant in Navajo culture as a sacred space or home "Hozho". "Hozho" is a foundational concept in Navajo culture and philosophy, often translated to mean "beauty," "balance," "harmony," or "goodness." The term encapsulates more than just aesthetic beauty; it is a way of living and perceiving the world that promotes a state of balance and harmony with all creation. This central figure is typically connected by lines to smaller rectangles or squares at the corners of the rug, symbolizing the four sacred mountains that define the traditional boundaries of the Navajo homeland.

A JB Moore Revival patterned Navajo rug draws its design from the iconic works of JB Moore, a prominent early 20th-century trader who significantly influenced Navajo weaving. Moore is best known for his 1911 mail-order catalog, "The Navajo: Weaving Patterns Book," which showcased traditional and innovative rug designs. He introduced these patterns to a global audience, including the 1915 Panama-Pacific International Exposition in San Francisco (World's Fair), blending traditional Navajo motifs with intricate geometric designs to appeal to non-Native buyers. Modern renditions of these patterns honor traditional Navajo weaving techniques while incorporating updated color palettes and subtle design adaptations, reflecting the dynamic evolution of Navajo artistry
