Furniture, Fabrics & Floor Coverings

Interior Decorating & Coordinating with Oriental Rugs

It's fundamental principles - emphasis, balance, rhythm, contrast, proportion and harmony - notwithstanding, the art of interior design is concerned with the interrelationships and functionality of objects within a given space - and specifically in terms of style, type, size and color. Additionally, the coordinating and arrangement of those elements in any interior typically involves the selection and placement of furniture, fabrics and, last but not least, the Oriental rug.

Perhaps the most practical way to decorate a room is to start with the oriental rug - especially if the rug will occupy the majority of the room's floor space - be sure to leave at least two feet of floor space around the perimeter of the rug. Choose a dominant color, a secondary color and an accent color from the carpet, an entire color and design scheme can thus be derived from the rug - including the upholstery, wall coverings, and window treatments. Similarly, a rug's pattern can inspire the particular furniture style to be used.
