Partners & Pairs

Rugs are an ideal way to zone an open plan living area or link spaces – the perfect example being a double reception room.

Sometimes a room calls for contrast but, where required, many of Deirdre’s designs work in pairs or partners, see our previous post on the successful use of Deirdre’s FALLING RIBBONS design in a St. Mortiz chalet.

Of course we can change all colours on any design and adapt them to suit but we thought we’d put some ideas together from our sample rugs to inspire anyone furnishing a space where a connection between the designs would work that’s not entirely dependant on colour.

Connect by decorative style

ZIG-ZAG and ODEON both have an Art Deco feel and the gold in the colourways adds to their successful partnership

There are so many other elements to consider such as texture, size and scale but hopefully this post will tempt you to think more about two or more rugs working cohesively in your interior when space and budget allows.
