Modern Chic Meets Timeless Classics

Rugs at Parade of Homes

When designing our homes we want the overall effect to be a pleasing whole. The wallpaper shouldn’t fight with the sofa fabric, the styles of furniture shouldn’t compete with each other. You put time, energy and money into creating an authentic space that will be lived in by real people. YOU and your family!

Modern chic is relatively timeless as the basic design elements change only minimally and translate across decades. This is were Bunyaad rugs come in and add a timeless beauty and individuality that make your home personal and a most comfortable place to live in.

Create an authentic space
for real people.

A Tribal Kazak and a red Bokhara from our Bunyaad rug collection are part of this home. Take a look at these amazing photos. The colors just pop and add the right amount of interest to bring together the darker wood tones, clean lines and off-white fabrics and wall color.

The look is modern yet timeless and you can easily change elements over the years to keep that touch of individuality.

We hope you enjoy the look as much as we do. Our Rugs in Homes Galleries are full of inspiration as well.

What are some of the main design elements in your home décor? Can you easily change some of those elements? We’d love to hear your thoughts.

    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.

  • Knot Brothers, The Movie

    KnotBrothersSquare
    We talk a lot about how every knot in a Bunyaad rug is tied by hand but we were recently reminded that we don’t often talk about HOW every knot is tied.
    Our rugs use primarily two types of knots: the Senna knot and the Turkish knot.

    The Senna knot is an asymmetrical knot and is used in the majority of our rugs, from Persians to Chobi tribals. It is virtually formed with a figure 8 around two warp threads.

    The Turkish knot is also tied around two warp threads but instead of a figure 8, it is a knot where both ends of the wool come out together instead of on either side of one warp thread, like the Senna knot.

    Confused yet? Let us show you how these knots are tied, as only our staff can… with a little movie.

    Bunyaad Rugs at Landmark Homes

    Sometimes we wish we could tag along with our customers when they take different rugs home on approval to see which rug fits and looks the best. How do you decide which style you like or if the 8×10 fits better than the 6×9 size rug?

    A new community of homes build by Landmark Homes in our neighborhood in Ephrata graciously let us bring in a truck load of rugs so we could experiment ourselves. Here is our first look at rugs in the living room. We wanted to show you how the same room gets transformed by simply changing the style of rug.

    How do I pick the right size carpet for my living room?

    Bunyaad 9x12 Chobi rug at Landmark Homes

    This is a question we hear all the time. You’ve probably tried to figure out how large a rug you should consider, I know I did the first time I started looking at rugs for my home.

    Hand-knotted rugs come in quite a variety of sizes and so it can be daunting to know exactly what size rug to choose for the different rooms in our home. Let’s talk about living rooms to get us started. Future posts will look into kitchens, dining rooms and bedrooms.

    We had the opportunity to stage rugs in a Landmark Custom Home. Take a look at the different types and sizes of rugs that we used in the same living room to show you the many varied options you have when selecting a rug for your living room.

    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?

  1. Jane, you are so right. The Kazaks do have great character and are just amazing pieces in so many different home environments. I would love to see a picture of the Kazak in your kitchen. Feel free to email us one (or two or three).

  2. The kazak is so lovely! It looks great in this setting. I bought a red kazak at our last sale and have it in my kitchen. I love it’s bright perky colour. The tribals are so full of character.
