What to choose? Intricate patterns or simple lines?

Patterns on rug, fabric

Imagine this scenario: You come into the Rug Room looking for a plain colored rug. Why?

Well, your couch has a pattern, your love seat has a slightly different pattern, the armchair is in a contrasting color and the wallpaper and curtains all bring their own unique challenges to the design table. Too many patterns you think. The only solution to this seems to be a plain colored rug with as little pattern as possible.

Find key design elements

In the Rug Room we see this scenario many times and help our customers combine the patterns in their home with a Bunyaad rug that also offers a variety of colors and patterns. Let us show you how.

We start by looking at your fabric swatches, paint samples, floor samples and pictures of the room or anything else that you bring along to help us get a feel for the decor that already exists in your room. Then we take you through the piles to find the rug that compliments the key design elements.

In most cases, you will not go home with a plain colored rug but come back absolutely amazed how a rug, made nearly 1/2 a world away by artisans who have never seen your room, could fit into your space so perfectly.

Our rugs are diverse.

Our rugs are diverse. They are filled with a range of hues and highlights that until you get them into your room you don’t see at first. But these highlights begin to play with the other colors in your room and help to pull everything together.

Moral of the story

Take it home, try it out. If we had a penny for everyone that said “Wow, I never thought I’d get a rug to fit and now look at this!”, we would have quite a penny collection!

Shop online, visit one of our four year-round stores or come to a rug event near you. All of our rug reps will take the time to listen to your design challenges and help you find the rug that is just right for your home.

    A Quilt and a Kazak Living in Perfect Harmony

    Quilt
    When I walked into the home of Gill and Dave my eyes went straight to the quilt on the wall in the living room. I love symmetry and vibrant, yet harmonious color combinations and this quilt was a perfect example showcasing both. What made the quilt stand out even more though was the Tribal Kazak sitting almost underneath as part of a cozy sitting area.

    As an artist, Gill is drawn to handmade, finely crafted products. Even before moving to the US many years ago she had discovered Bunyaad Rugs online and searched our extensive inventory for the perfect rug for her new home. She appreciates how much care is put into each rug and delights in exploring design details and how they will work with her furniture pieces and other art work.

    Tying the Knot: A Lifetime of Memories in a Rug

    Wedding on a Rug If Natalie Merchant’s twirling days from the 10,000 Maniacs could be translated into a rug, that would be my style. My husband, on the other hand, is the type of guy that that never lets a beard/moustache growing project get the slightest bit untrimmed, perfects the blue shirt look and shines his daily wear shoes. So, how in the world would we find a rug that spoke to both of us, that represented both of us and in turn represented us as a couple?

    Top 3 Concerns of Many Rug Customers

    Amir explains bunyaad rugs.When working in the rug room, we hear many of the same fears over and over again and yet by the time most folks leave, they have some peace of mind. Are these some of your concerns?

    1. How will I ever decide from all of these rugs?

    I think this is my all-time favorite concern. Folks walk up to the rug piles with their dimensions and fabric samples in hand, leave out a heavy sigh and proclaim they don’t know how they’ll ever narrow down their choices with so many rugs in our rug room to choose from.

    Honestly, our rug piles can look daunting with over 25 different styles of rugs to choose from and sizes ranging from 2’x3′ to 10’x14′.

    With each customer, we explain that as we look together we will go through all piles that are of interest to them, starting from the top and flipping down to the bottom of the pile. As we bring the rugs back down again, ones that are of interest will get rolled and laid on the floor for customers to compare side by side.
