Vintage Turkish Rugs Design

Vintage Turkish rugs are highly sought after for their beauty, craftsmanship, and historical significance. These rugs, also known as Anatolian rugs, are handwoven by skilled artisans in various regions of Turkey.

Vintage Turkish rugs are known for their intricate designs, vibrant colors, and high-quality materials. They often feature geometric patterns, floral motifs, and traditional symbols that reflect the cultural heritage and artistic traditions of the region. The rugs are typically made using techniques such as knotting or flatweaving, and they are crafted from natural fibers such as wool or cotton.

Overall, vintage Turkish rugs are prized for their beauty, craftsmanship, and cultural significance, making them a popular choice for those who appreciate the artistry and history woven into each rug.

Revival Turkish Rugs Handmade

I was first introduced to Revival a couple of years ago when we purchased our first vintage Turkish rug for our country kitchen at our home in Coastal Maine. And I have been in love ever since!

This vintage Turkish rug in our kitchen is now two years of age, and it still looks as vibrant as it did the day it arrived. The quality and craftsmanship are second to none.

Vintage Turkish Rugs for Living Room

At this same time last year, we had just finished painting our open floor plan and wallpapering three bedrooms. As you may know, after tackling such large projects, you gain a new perspective on your interior design choices, pushing you to make even further changes.

A vintage Turkish rug is an easy way to define large living spaces like living rooms, especially with open floor plans. And that is how we started this year’s living room makeover, with our very own vintage Turkish rug.

Hand Knotted Turkish Rug

For our open living room, I chose Revival’s Stasja vintage Turkish rug, a one-of-a-kind vintage rug hand-knotted in Isparta, Turkey. Dimensions: 9’2″ x 12’1″. Although I purchased this rug as a one-of-a-kind rug, you may shop similarly if you like this look.

And with this choice came a second choice…

Four Seasons Furniture

I first learned, and was inspired by Four Seasons furniture from my friend Molly in Maine, who has a beautifully designed and curated cottage on the Coast of Maine. And joining me in sharing all about her living room designs today is Molly herself in her post Slipcover Swivel Chairs: My Versatile Living Room Design. Be sure to drop by and say hello; Molly is looking forward to your visit, and you are sure to be inspired!

We can all use a little inspiration this time of the year!

Back at that time, we were renovating our Coastal Maine home, and Four Seasons became our furniture of choice for both our living room and sunroom furniture.

Four Seasons Furniture is all custom slip-covered furniture and is now our go-to furniture of choice because we can’t get this kind of versatility with any other furniture selection. Here’s why:

Slip On. Slip Off. So Easy.

Living Room Furniture Fabric Selections

From Four Seasons Furniture, I first chose the blue and tan pattern Latika in the color Delta shown here on the left for our larger living room couch. A somewhat paisley design. I was a little concerned at first that it may be too busy with our vintage Turkish rug, but it turned out beautifully.

Second, I chose the Baldwin pattern in the color Porcelain. A blue and white striped design that pairs very nicely with the Latika pattern, helping to offset the more busy Latika pattern while still accenting the vintage Turkish rug.

Four Seasons Furniture Process

Four Seasons has local retailers everywhere. We are fortunate enough to even have one local retailer here in our small town of Vermont. When ordering, you will have your choice of furniture from almost 25 different series. We chose our living room couch and loveseat from the Daniel Collection with an upgrade to the Feather Blend Cushions and a Boxed Back.

We chose the Daniel Collection furniture series as it has the deepest seating, providing a cozier and more relaxing look and feel to it. Other selections offer a more formal style, too.

Once you choose your furniture pieces, you will choose from the Four Seasons furniture fabrics for your custom slipcovers, and once ordered, the furniture pieces usually arrive within 6-8 weeks.

Living Room Design Tips

Elevating a living room design can be achieved by incorporating various elements and considering the overall aesthetic and functionality of the space. Here are some tips on how to elevate your living room design:

1. Start with a Design Plan: Before making any changes, create a design plan that outlines your goals, style preferences, and budget. This will help you stay focused and make informed decisions throughout the design process.
2. Choose a Focal Point: Select a focal point in your living room, such as a fireplace, vintage Turkish rug, or a statement piece of furniture. Arrange the rest of the furniture and décor around this focal point to create a visually appealing and balanced space.
3. Consider the Layout: Evaluate the layout of your living room and make any necessary adjustments to optimize the flow and functionality of the space. Arrange furniture in a way that encourages conversation and allows for easy movement.
4. Select a Color Scheme: Choose a color scheme that reflects your style and creates a cohesive look in the living room. Consider using a combination of neutral tones and pops of color to add visual interest and depth to the space.
5. Add Texture and Layers: Incorporate different textures and layers into your living room design to create depth and visual interest. Use a mix of materials such as wood, marble, fabric, and metal to add texture and variety to the space.
6. Lighting: Lighting plays a crucial role in elevating the ambiance of a living room. Utilize a combination of ambient, task, and accent lighting to create a warm and inviting atmosphere. Consider incorporating floor lamps, table lamps, and dimmer switches to control the lighting levels.
7. Artwork and Accessories: Hang artwork or create a gallery wall to add personality and visual interest to the living room. Select accessories like throw pillows, rugs, curtains, and decorative objects that complement the overall design and color scheme.
8. Furniture Selection: Choose furniture that is not only stylish but also comfortable and functional. Invest in quality pieces that will stand the test of time, like the Four Seasons mentioned above. Consider incorporating a mix of different seating options, such as sofas, armchairs, and ottomans, to create a versatile and inviting seating arrangement.
9. Wall Treatments: Consider adding wall treatments like wallpaper, wainscoting, or a feature wall to add visual appeal and texture to the living room. These can help create a focal point or add depth to the space.
10. Declutter and Organize: Keep the living room clutter-free and well-organized. Use storage solutions such as shelves, baskets, and cabinets to keep the space tidy and free from unnecessary items.

Open Living Room with Vintage Turkish Rug

With Revival’s vintage Turkish rug to Four Seasons furniture, we were able to elevate our open living room area into a bright and fresh area with color choices that match both our outdoor and indoor elements. See more in the Our Year-Round Vermont Mountain Views post.

This open living room is a high-traffic space! It’s just off the kitchen, has a 24-hour burning pellet stove, is our TV room, and opens out onto our deck, where we also let our Berner in and out all day long.

See what I mean? Very high traffic! And I am that confident that this vintage Turkish rug will be able to handle it all. That’s how much I love Revival’s rugs.

Marble Living Room Accents

In one of my most recent posts, Best Vintage Finds for Winter Collections, I discuss in detail the option of using marble as a home accent. Marble is such a fabulous and affordable way to elevate your living room design.

I accentuated this living room corner with two thrifted marble plant stands that I found at our local thrift shop, along with a large marble slab that I had from an old coffee table, and added it to a taller wooden side table that I had also acquired.

As marble is native and quarried here in Vermont, it makes for a natural fit in our home. I love its rustic charm and how it brightens and accents the vintage Turkish rug and furniture so nicely.

Now, I’d like to add one more chair to round out this living room space. And that will most likely be a Four Seasons chair with another custom slipcover option. Maybe I’ll need a swivel chair like Molly has in front of her cozy fireplace…

I’m also looking into replacing the tiles surrounding our pellet stove with locally quarried marble tiles to complete this living room space.

Coffee Table

I’m using a round wooden coffee table that we bought from Pottery Barn years ago. I like the roundness it brings to this rather rectangular open space living room. And should we decide on marble around the fireplace, the wood will add a nice layer of texture.

I hope you found loads of inspiration here today, friend, as we transition from winter to spring. Remember, the key to elevating a living room design is to create a space that reflects your style, is functional, and provides a comfortable and inviting atmosphere for you and your guests.

Easter Bunny Figurines

I just got these gold Easter bunny figurines in, and they are just the cutest on the living room coffee table. Paired with pink tulips, we’re feeling springy.

I’m so glad you dropped by, and if you are new to my blog, welcome! I hope you enjoyed your visit with us today at our Home in Vermont.
