Creating Cohesion: Matching Rugs with Curtains, Upholstery, and Art

For some, cohesion in interior design might mean matching the furniture with the curtains, furnishings, and art, or finding uniformity in colour, design, or aesthetic. At OBEETEE, we want our collections of carpets, furniture, and furnishings to create a special spark in your home. With our range of designs, we have pieces that can help bolster colour schemes and easily match your taste in interiors. If you’re looking to do up your living spaces, or thinking about a festive refresh, here are our recommendations to elevate your home by creating cohesion in your living spaces.

 

If you’re looking for artwork, our Viraasat collection offers an unconventional medium through which leading Indian designers Tarun Tahiliani, Anju Modi, Ashdeen Z. Lilaowala, and Anita Dalmia explore their takes on heritage with OBEETEE’s 104-year legacy of carpet making adding the finishing touch to their designs. From exquisitely framed scenes to intricately patterned carpets, these tapestries will mesmerize you at first sight. Explore the collection here: https://www.obeetee.in/collections/viraasat.

 

Once you’ve got the artwork squared away, here’s a look at how the rest of our collection can influence cohesion in your home. For a living room, our Crest Round Cane Coffee Table in polished acacia wood is a great way to accent a lounge, anchoring the space. With a simple rattan cane weave to complement the wood, this sturdy table blends modern design and classic decor seamlessly.

Place the Crest Coffee Table over a patterned rug, filling out the floor and drawing attention to the centre of the room when everyone comes together. From our modern design collection, the Delia Hand-Tufted Woollen and Cotton Rug in subdued yellow, beige, and grey is a subtle piece to complete the room with.

A final accent for your living room, the Strypes Woven Cotton Chambray Cushion Cover adds a pop of colour with muted blue stripes on cream fabric and a rustic finish to the edges. This piece will work in symphony with the blues of the Delia rug, the interplay between the coffee table, rug, and cushion covers providing a cohesion that is understated and pleasing to the eye.

For bedroom decor, the easiest way to tie together an existing theme is with new cushion covers and a pop of colour. For instance, in a room with multi-coloured or solid red, yellow, green, blue and/or orange curtains, our Nomadica Woven Stripes Cotton Chambray Cushion Cover will fit in perfectly, and the multi-coloured design will work in tandem with the curtains and upholstered furniture in the room.

An area you may not have considered decorating - the humble hallway, is also capable of celebrating cohesion. You may choose to embellish your passageway with a carpet from OBEETEE’s collection of runners. For a quiet hallway, our Retro Block-V Hand Tufted Woollen Runner is a bold addition, with V-shaped block printed colours providing a lively accent. This multi-coloured piece will be noticed even as people rush from one room to the next.

For a hallway leading to a main door, OBEETEE’s collection of benches could be the perfect companion to the Retro Block-V runner. The Sam Oval Upholstered Bench in acacia wood, with velvet green upholstery and a rounded polished wood finish delivers a distinguished modern touch. Placed against a wall it will provide the perfect resting point for people and bags, and will work very well with the bright colours of the Retro Block-V runner. With a mirror above, the Upholstered Bench is the perfect stop for last-minute checks and mirror selfies before rushing out of the door.
