This rug was made by my late uncle when he was just a teenager. It would have been in the 1960's and as you can see, it's a quintessential sixties mod style pattern and even the colours stay true to the decade. I've had this rug in our new home for the past year but hadn't found a place for it until we decided to tackle the spare bedroom.
This rug became the inspiration for the room's decor. From the colour palette to the style, I wanted to design the room all around the rug.
I'm a big fan of mustard and grey combo so when I decided on a half painted wall, I knew instantly, that a warm grey would work best here. As the room isn't very big, the half painted walls along with the curtains hung quite high give the illusion of a higher ceiling and more space.
