Oriental rugs on the wall

Back in trend

Rugs enhance interior decor. Lying on the floors, they bring color, warm feet, and a cozy atmosphere into your home. The beloved living environment gains design and style with a suitable rug. However, while rugs are typically used on the floor in our regions, in other parts of the world, they are often hung on the wall. On the wall? Of course! It doesn't always have to be a picture or photo; rugs also make excellent wall decorations. However, there are a few points to consider when doing this. You can find out what they are in our new article.

Bright room with carpet as wall decoration

Which rooms benefit from carpet on the wall?

While rugs on the floor can add lovely accents to any living space, hanging rugs on the wall can be challenging in small rooms, as they can feel overwhelming depending on their size. Large rooms, on the other hand, particularly benefit from this, as their spaciousness can sometimes lack coziness. Here, a rug as a wall hanging can help reduce some of the vastness of the space and provide a focal point that serves as a calming element. If you find the idea of a rug on the wall appealing at first glance, you may be wondering the following question: How can I hang a rug that weighs several kilograms? Flat-woven rugs like kilims are relatively easy to hang, but hand-knotted oriental rugs, for example, can be significantly heavier, weighing up to 30 kilograms.

One last piece of advice: You should enjoy it!

Don't chase every trend. Your own four walls should please you. Therefore, choose your carpet and decor style according to your preferences. Whether the carpet is on the wall or on the floor – trends aside: you should feel comfortable.
