How to Choose an Area Rug

Benefits of Area Rugs in Your Home

The right area rug can be an important part of a room’s function and design. It can protect the flooring underneath, be a comfortable spot for children to sit, and even add a touch of luxury. Plus, an area rug, regardless of style and size, can act as the focal point for an entire room!

Choosing an Area Rug Style

There are no rules when it comes to choosing an area rug for your home, but we do offer some helpful guidelines for you. Since much of the selection process is based on your own personal taste and sense of style, our guidelines are just a helpful nudge in the right direction.

When looking for an area rug for larger spaces, be sure to leave a border around the room so the rug is not covering wall to wall. Place main pieces of furniture directly on top of the rug, or at least the front legs of the furniture. This creates a defied space and also develops an intimate feel to spark conversation.

When putting are rugs in hallways, choose a rug that is long and narrow, so it can collect any debris from the outside without you or your guests tracking any into your home. Hallways rugs are called runners, and serve as both a functional and stylish accessory.
