Historic Doylestown Farmhouse Owners Use a Real Handmade Oriental Rug to Protect Kitchen Floors

Customer's of Bucks County, PA rug-store Brandon Oriental Rugs -  www.BrandonRugs.com - found this real handmade oriental rug for their historic Doylestown, PA farmhouse kitchen. The room waited over one hundred fifty years to get the rug it deserves to protect and grace its floors. 

Brandon provided our customer with complimentary rug delivery to their home. Installation of the rug together with the proper rug padding was also included so they had nothing to do except enjoy the rug presentation and decide if their first impressions of the rug at Brandon's store were confirmed by its look and feel in its special place in their home.

The rug chosen is an 8x10 reproduction Persian Ferrahan design  made in India according to a 13/65 contract. It has over two hundred hand-tied knots per square inch.

The small pattern and intricate detail of the rug (extremely practical in the eating area) does not in any way diminish the feeling of functional simplicity in the farmhouse kitchen; and is period and style appropriate with the age and character of the home.

Real Hand-knotted Rug to Anchor Renovation of Multi-Use Room: An Ideabook

"Begin with the end in mind" Stephen Covey

We've been asked by an interior design company in Bucks County, PA to assist in finding a "transitional style" rug to integrate other decisions regarding color and accessorization of a small multi-use room. The desire to establish the room with a neutral color rug -- preferably gray -- has been expressed.

Based upon the floor plan (see below), two rug-sizes are proposed for consideration: 8x10 and 8x8 square. 8x10, a standard size for hand-knotted rugs, offers a wide range of selections. 8x8 square, less common, is nonetheless an option; with several pieces available that are oriented toward the project's goals.

Take The Rug Away And The Whole Room Becomes A Room With A Hole

Lake Washington Residence - contemporary - living room - Castanes Architects PS

This image comes from a Houzz ideabook posted to Facebook. The hosts at Houzz are inviting comments in response to the question, "What inspires you about this space?"

Interestingly, a quick review of posted replies, showed just one that specifically mentioned the rug as being inspirational. Most of those who chose to respond were impressed by the wall of glass to the outdoors, and the lightness it imparts to the room. Very nice indeed; without question.

But we invite you to really think about how this room works, and just how significant the rug is. Think about how this room appears at night. Think about how the room would look and feel without the rug to hold it together; to anchor the white monochromatic color scheme of the interior.

Can you see that without the rug the whole room would look like a room with a hole in it?

Hand-knotted Oriental Rug Is The Finishing Touch To Complete Family Room

Our customer had completed this room through a gradual process of renovation and furniture acquisition. Initially, they thought wall-to-wall carpet would be adequate for the look and feel of their family room, but more and more they felt the need to add an area rug to unite the seating group and focus the room. 
We were honored to have them visit our store as part of their rug search, and delighted that we were able to provide a rug for them that perfectly complements the colors and character of their room, and enhances all that they had previously accomplished to make this a comfortable living space.
