Monica Benavidez, the lifestyle blogger, desires the custom Karastan rug in her new interior design to enhance the style and details of her blog.
Why I Love Karastan
I was blown away by their commitment to excellence and quality when I had the opportunity to visit their showroom as part of the 2018 Bloggers Design Market. I have always been a fan of Karastan because of their vast and high-quality selection of beautiful floor coverings.
I am able to learn about the brand for the connection my confirmed truly firsthand carpets/rugs, as well as being able to touch and see them. Additionally, I am able to learn about the values of the company and the dedicated employees, as well as their manufacturing process.
Whether you prefer trendy or traditional, Karastan has got you covered. For generations, they have been committed to creating long-lasting carpets and rugs with flawless craftsmanship, using materials that are inspired by timeless designs at their core.
My Antelope Obsession
When I started planning the makeover of my home office, I immediately knew I wanted a Karastan rug. It took me years to obsess over finding the perfect pattern, but selecting the rug was an easy choice.
I chose the taupe colorway for my carpet from Karastan’s Antelope Scenes Savanna collection because I wanted a neutral rug that would complement my décor both now and in 10 years, and I preferred the colorway that had a good look.
An excellent option for a bedroom is a typical 8’x10′ dimension, which applies to many residences, including mine. It can be tailored and secured to create a personalized rug, similar to the carpet called Savanna Scenes Antelope. Were you aware of this?
If I ever own a home, I would definitely use this print to make a statement on the stair treads. The pattern on the antelope rug is perfect for any neutral and bold space, and it can often be seen in shelter magazines.
It is perfect for people who love to change up their rugs and décor with nearly any pair. It adds all the drama, texture, warmth, subtle color, and pattern. Whether your home décor leans towards boho, farmhouse, contemporary, or eclectic, antelope is a fail-proof and perfect choice. This rug gives a look that is both on-trend and timeless, with the subtle ombre-inspired colors paired with the speckled antelope pattern.
A Stylish Office Update
The antelope rug is a showstopper in my home office, adding contrast and warmth to the white and black walls amidst abundant floral decorations.
Standing out in the area, the golden and copper embellishments elegantly match with the cozy shades of the carpet. A busy room can find stability through a sizable, uncomplicated design like antelope, which is why it is necessary to have equilibrium in a space. Nevertheless, I appreciate the vibrant pops of color that a space requires for harmony.
Since I added the rug, I feel an improved flow and placement of furniture in the room. The rug helps to create definition in this small square space.
When I’m working away in my office, my senior and gorgeous dog, Wee Pee, often keeps me company. His favorite blanket, which showcases his stylish streak, looks right at home next to the rug on my top list.
If he were to experience an unfortunate incident (or if I were to encounter a mishap while crafting), the Kashmere nylon fiber offers lifelong protection against stains and dirt, while the taupe shade conceals his hair remarkably effectively.
The rug itself is incredibly plush—so plush, in fact, that I’ve developed a habit of walking around in my fuzzy gold slippers, enjoying the cushy feeling between my toes.
I couldn’t be more thrilled to finally incorporate this pattern into my home, where I spend many hours each week creating content. The beautifully decorated space helps to create content and is overall a place that people would love to be in.
