What would the interior be without the good old carpet? It's one of those accessories that don't add style, but rather make any room look particularly homely. One of the current interior design trends is undoubtedly the patchwork carpet. And a variety of designs ensure that there is something for every taste in terms of color, pattern and shape. We have put together some interesting ideas in the following gallery. They all prove that patchwork design is suitable for any interior style.
Choose a colorful patchwork carpet in two or more colors
Let's start our collection of ideas with some attractive models that are characterized by a colorful ortwo-tone designare marked. Such variants are wonderful if you want to spice up a rather monochrome interior with color. You can also add accent walls, colored furniture or colored decorations in this way and create a beautiful interaction.
Colorful models are particularly popular with patterns familiar from oriental carpets and kilims. Such a vintage patchwork carpet with an arabesque pattern is characterized by abundant ornaments and pastel colors. The size has little influence on the unique effect of this accessory. Decorate any area in the room.
Vintage-style models are not only suitable for the vintage interior style itself. The vintage look with patchwork can also be used as a romantic and colorful accent in a modern interior or as an unusual eye-catcher in an otherwise neutral, Scandinavian interior. The different color variants allow for a variety of design ideas.
This carpet with a patchwork design does not consist of many different colors like the examples above. The main colors here are blue and red, which are combined with bright ornaments. It has been combined with modern furnishings and is located on a light floor, which makes it stand out particularly well.
Carpets are particularly popular for the seating area in the living room. After all, they keep your feet warm. In addition, it also makes the comfortable seating area look even cozier. In the example above, a gray, modern couch was combined with an oriental-looking carpet design in shades of red and beige. There are also attractive elements in the shabby chic style for the furnishings, such as the wall paneling and the ceiling design.
The combination of green and beige, which also adorns a seating area in the living room, looks particularly fresh. Think about how you want the accessories to stand out. If you want to turn it into a highlight, combine it with furniture and accessories in neutral colors. If you only want it to have a supplementary function, choose it in colors that match the decoration and furniture.
It's not just the main seating area in the living room that can be beautifully highlighted with a patchwork design. Maybe you have another seating area that is used for reading, for example. Then you can of course use bright or colored models for such areas and visually separate them from the rest of the room. There are no limits when it comes to furnishing and design!
Here you can see a version in turquoise and gray-beige, with different patterns designed for each segment. This creates the impression that different nuances of the two main colors were used. The accessory decorates the area in front of the fireplace in a monochrome living room in white and light gray.
A colorful carpet design naturally looks particularly good in a children's room. There it can be combined with colored furniture or walls and creates a friendly and child-friendly atmosphere. The model above consists of squares in different colors. Only the elements with an orange leopard pattern are repeated again and again.
Models made from different shades of one color
Squares and rectangles are typical for the individual segments in such a carpet design, as you have probably already noticed. It's no different with this attractive model in warm orange tones that complement the orange barn door. The use of one main color in its many nuances is another variation for patchwork design.
In this room design, the color of the carpet creates a contrast to the red sideboard, which is anything but disturbing. Quite the opposite! This style of furnishing can also appear very harmonious. The light blue accessory is also complemented by many beige colors, which can be found in the chair and the floor tiles, among other things.
In the picture above you can see a model in blue with different shades that was used to design a dining room. It is located directly under the dining table. It is also striking that the color is complemented by a blue seat cushion for the bench. The blue color also goes perfectly with the wooden furnishings.
You are welcome to combine several patchwork carpets with each other. The example above is actually a single model that only gives the impression of several carpets. It appears there are two blue models and one white model in the room. Still, this gives you a good idea of how multiple rugs would look in a room.
You can also see a richly ornamented design in this carpet model. It also consists of blue nuances, but more contrasting blue tones were used here than in the examples above. The colors are of course suitable for any interior style, but can particularly enhance a maritime interior in blue and white.
Spice up the minimalist interior a little by using a colorful rug with a patchwork design. The simple and modern decor looks great with the yellow model. which is also decorated with pretty patterns and ornaments, looks much more attractive and homely. Any color can be combined with a neutral interior design.
This model is also blue. What you probably didn't notice, however, is that it was hand-colored. So if you have a model with a neutral and light color that you find rather boring, you can dye it any color you like. You don't have to worry about irregular colors and bright spots shimmering through, as these give the accessory its vintage charm.
Neutral and monochrome rugs
If the carpet is intended to enhance the room in the form of an accessory, but does not immediately catch the eye in terms of color, a neutral color is the right choice. From gray to brown and beige tones, there are different variants to choose from, which you can choose from depending on your taste or furniture. The light model above is neutral, but still stands out well on the dark floor.
You can see a patchwork model in gray here. Each individual segment consists of different stripe patterns. The individual parts are attached to each other with pretty seams. The pattern gives the model a certain retro charm. If you have old carpets of this or a similar type, you can also design such a design yourself or have it made.
You can see a bright and neutral carpet model here again. This is also the same room as in the example above, which once again shows that any design style can be combined with any type of carpet. Don't be afraid to try something extravagant or go for something simple if you like it better.
Patchwork aus Kuhfell
You may have already seen our article with cowhide ideas and fallen in love with them. Then you also know that a cowhide patchwork carpet is also possible. Because the pattern of the leather or fur is always unique, no two models are the same. Of course, artificial fur can also be used without losing style and elegance.
Whether made of large or small squares, in black and white or brown and beige, versions made of fur are without a doubt real eye-catchers. Above you can see an interesting patchwork rug made of leather and cowhide, with the brown leather forming a kind of frame. The warm colors go perfectly with the brown furnishings and create an elegant interior.
withunusual patterns and shapes
We have already mentioned the pattern of squares and rectangles that are typical of patchwork carpets. However, that doesn't mean that these are the only pattern variations. Whether colorful or neutral, one or two colors, a zigzag pattern like this is simply beautiful and is guaranteed to put a good mood in any room.
The patchwork carpet made of fur can also have a special pattern. We find the idea above of circles in different color shades particularly interesting. Earth tones characterize this model and go perfectly with the brown leather sofa and the wooden floor. A rustic feel is created that makes you feel good.
Or how about the trendy hexagon pattern? It is very popular for tiles, but why shouldn't you be able to use it in the form of a carpet? This cowhide imitation was also done. A black and white design was chosen that adorns the area between a mixer and a shelf. Very elegant, don't you think?
This version with cowhide has an interesting diagonal stripe pattern. The main colors are black and white, but are complemented by some shades of brown. The result is a particularly original look that can not only be used for modern interiors, but can also enhance any other style. Why not use it for Scandinavian style, for example!
A colorful look was again chosen for this kitchen. Again it is a striped pattern, but this time it consists of many different colors and was designed according to the length of the carpet.
A patchwork is not only achieved through the colors. The many individual elements also differ in their patterns, which are familiar to us from animals. Leopard and zebra and other spot patterns are alternated. In this way, living rooms, bedrooms or dining rooms can be decorated and given an elegant and at the same time relaxed look.
Imitate wood with carpets? That is also possible! This allows you to have an accessory for any room that adapts to the existing wooden floor. A striped look in a natural wood color ensures that the carpet appears to be made of parquet. It also radiates a warm atmosphere when chosen in beige, brown or cream.
This not only makes this design very beautiful for public living areas, but also makes bedrooms look much more harmonious. Neutral and natural colors have a calming effect and stimulate a peaceful and relaxing sleep. The striped pattern of this patchwork accessory looks elegant and homely at the same time.
