Tips for selecting a rug for your home:
These tips were provided by quality area rugs - learn more
about rugs.
- Visualize the
desired total look of the room. Do you want a room that's
uncluttered and monotone or a room rich with colors or textures? If
you start with a totally empty room, choose a rug, then paint or
paper the walls in colors found in the rug. Remember, the
rug has to fit the room – in more ways than one. Consider how the
room is used, how much traffic the area gets and who will view it and
under what light. Choose
furniture that enhances the rug design or colors found in the rug.
Consider the
size of the room and the area you want to cover. The most common
area rug sizes are 4-by-6 and 6-by-9 feet. They work well under a
coffee table. An 8-by-11-foot rug or larger can cover an entire
room. Smaller area and scatter rugs can be ideal for adorning
smaller spaces—a hearth, a bedside, the area in front of a kitchen
sink—with a splash of color and warmth.
A rug with a
bold, overall design can be the focal point of a room with a chair
and sofa in solid or subdued patterns. Light colored
rugs make a room look more spacious, and deeper colors lend coziness
to a room.
- Choose a rug
that will perform well, with the right combination of density and
fiber. The denser the pile, (with closer tufts or stitches), the
better your rug will wear.
