Oriental rugs on the wall

Back in fashion

Rugs enhance interior design. Lying on the floors, they bring colour, warm feet, and a cosy atmosphere into our homes. The beloved living environment gains design and style from a suitable rug. However, while in our regions rugs are only used on the floor, 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 photograph; rugs also make excellent wall decorations. However, there are a few points to consider. 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, using rugs on the wall can be challenging in small rooms, as they can feel overwhelming depending on their size. Larger rooms particularly benefit from this, as their spaciousness may require a touch of cosiness. Here, a rug as a wall hanging is ideal, as it reduces some of the vastness of the room and provides a focal point that acts as a calming feature. 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 still a relatively light task in this regard, but hand-knotted oriental rugs, for example, can be significantly heavier, weighing up to 30 kg.

One last piece of advice: You should enjoy it!
