Keen for Kilim


From the Resene colour inspiration – latest looks gallery

Woven, natural textures – especially in fibres like sisal, rattan and jute – are everywhere, along with equally earthy colours to complement them: a myriad of greens, terracotta and blushes of warm, barely-there sunset tones like petal pink, lilac and buttery yellows.

Mood board: Background in Resene Napa with A4 size drawdown paint swatches (clockwise from top) in Resene Sambuca, Resene Sunbaked, Resene Just Dance, Resene Soulful and Resene Despacito and a vase painted Resene Just Dance.

Handwoven kilim rugs by artisans from Kabul to Casablanca are particularly popular and can be used to adorn floors and walls alike. The ones in this room are all 60-90 years old, hailing from central and southwestern Afghanistan, and play off the warm terracotta walls in Resene Sunbaked and the floors in Resene Napa. Vases in Resene Soulful and Resene Moccasin rest on a woven tray in Resene Despacito sitting atop a coffee table in Resene Sambuca. The sisal side table in Resene Rebel holds a vase in Resene Just Dance.

Snuggle in for a nap on an armless sofa like this one – its natural oatmeal colour lends itself well to being covered with cushions and cosy grey or caramel-coloured throws. In a space with this much warmth, you’ll hardly notice its winter at all.
