It is remarkable that something so rich in color, texture, pattern and history can blend so seamlessly into almost any decor — even the most modern or minimalist.
Kilims and oriental rugs are the epitome of eclecticism: bold and patterned yet somehow subtle and unobtrusive. Beautiful over marble and wood, or layered over carpeting or sisal rugs, oriental rugs are resistant to foot traffic and stains (and ephemeral trends).
If you prefer neutral rooms, an oriental rug can provide just the right amount of color and spark to prevent blandness. And because their patterns and colors are so detailed and layered, such rugs have a way of playing off colors everywhere else in the room.
Here are a few (of so many possible) models of how oriental rugs and kilims can serve as both backdrops and standouts in modern and contemporary decor.
You want something underfoot. Why not art?
You are yourself from head to foot. Shouldn't your home express who you are from floor to ceiling?
Where your treasure is, there will your heart be also. How you display "who you are" says everything about your passions.
Events happen at an interface. If you want to be where it is happening, position yourself where old meets new; where traditional meets avant garde; where the world as we know it meets the brave new world.
A reminder of primitive realities keeps the tentativeness of sophisticated new realities honest.
The evolution of modernity must take place as the branching of a tree. We cannot live by hurling ourselves into an abyss. We must live by growing organically from our roots.
The wonder and possibility of our time is that we are comfortable NOT in some cliche' of comfort, but in a place of new possibilities.
