Designing a Cohesive Look: Carpet and Furniture Pairings

When you’ve set your heart on a decor theme, collecting the bits and pieces that will eventually become part of your home can feel like running a marathon. It takes time to create a masterpiece and we believe that it is important to experiment before you settle on what you want to furnish your home with. One of the challenges of designing a cohesive look, however, is that furniture and furnishings are often found in different locations, making it difficult to imagine how a product viewed in-store will work with the pre-existing features of your spaces. This is why, in addition to our vast collection of handmade carpets, we also offer a furniture collection that you can view in-store, or online alongside our floor furnishing.

Today, we want to take you through our collection of furniture and demonstrate how easy it is to pair these pieces with our carpets and rugs to create a unified look. Our latest collection is comprised of minimalist designs crafted from wood, embellished with muted shades and natural fabric. These features create furniture that is perfectly suited to accent the angular features of a room, while also highlighting the colours and designs found across our carpet range. If you invest in a piece of furniture from our collection, we can guarantee that it will seamlessly harmonize with the rest of your decor.

The easiest piece of furniture to match with a carpet, in our opinion, is a coffee table. The classic round coffee table is your living room’s best friend, providing a heart around which people can gather, and a space where chairs and sofas can be assembled. Our Rose Coffee Table is a modern take on this classic component, with a round table top complemented by a protruding shelf near the ground. The unique play on space in this design is paired with a chestnut finish in acacia wood, with the grain peaking through to provide a rustic charm.

With a modern piece like our Jabbing Hand Tufted Woollen rug, the Rose Coffee Table offers balance to the dynamic pattern and bold colours of the design. An ochre canvas accented with geometric accents in bright white, deep maroon, and subdued grey, the Jabbing’s lively energy is best suited to accent a modern living room. When paired with the Rose Coffee Table, the synergy between the rug’s classic, minimalist form and the rug’s modern design will result in a tasteful finish, the woody hues of the table reeling in the playful energy of the multi-coloured rug.

For a traditional look, pair the Rose Coffee Table with our Sarab Hand Knotted Woollen rug, an elegant display of craftsmanship. A classic frame-in-frame design, the colours in this carpet create the illusion of having faded over time, evoking a sense of the centuries spent hand-knotting similar motifs and colours. The light-brown floral motifs in this carpet call out to the chestnut polish of the Rose Coffee Table, the understated design of the table allowing the splendour of the carpet to make a statement. A perfect match for the practical decorator with a flair for cultivating beauty in art, the Sarab rug and Rose Coffee Table come together to create unity in your decor.

Another coffee table in our furniture collection, the Clark Rectangular Coffee Table, offers an unorthodox approach to the classic design. Also finished in acacia wood, place this coffee table on a balcony to create a nook for early morning coffees and evenings spent curled up with a book. If you’re looking to furnish an outdoor space, complete your decor by pairing the Clark Coffee Table with our Cabir Hand Loom Jute and Hemp rug, a marriage of sandy jute with minty, pastel blue, woven together to create an understated look. Together, these pieces offer a simple, modern elegance that will make your outdoor areas the most appealing spot to hang out in.
