Kilim rugs with vivid tones will give the interior a bohemian vibe while the use of kilim rugs with mute tones will fill the space with warmth. 
  2. Use small to add more- Instead of placing a large-sized kilim rug covering the entire seating area or the dining space, use individual rugs, i.e. rugs of small sizes for each space. This will not only enhance the beauty of your living area but will continuity to it. While adding multiple rugs, make sure you choose the right ones. Either the color or their patterns should be in perfect sync. The right combination of kilim rugs will make your living room attractive and pleasing to the eye. Place a rug different rug in the seating area and a similar rug in the dining area. You can choose to add smaller rugs under individual furnishings like the armchair or the side table if you wish to draw people’s attention.
  3. Layering- Handcrafted with precision, the kilim rugs are made on comparatively small looms, and thus are perfect to adorn other large-sized carpets. Layering a kilim rug as a complimentary addition to the main rug in your room will enhance the aura of the space and give your floor a beauty, reminiscent of a finely painted work of art.
    When layering, make sure to choose your main carpets with a minimal pattern and a subtle color palette as kilim rugs never come in one flat color. The versatile and statement-making color palette is what makes them unique.

Keep in mind the color scheme of your living room and the space available. Kilim rugs tend to take away attention and become the focal point in a second because of their geometric patterns. Make sure to place them near the place where you wish to direct the attention towards. If you have a wall full of awards or if you wish to show off your new piece of furniture, place the kilim rug beside it and watch it work its magic.
