Browsing our site you will find every rug type, from Modern Rugs to Traditional Rugs, Shaggy Rugs to Flatweave!  Rugs make powerful design statements and they have the ability to completely transform rooms. They can act as artwork for the floor, or they can fade into the background and speak texturally only. It is important to select the   right size and shape for your room; with just one simple switch a room can go from traditional to modern, classic to contemporary, or bland to bold.

So the question is, how do you decide which one is the right one for you? Here are some things to think about.

Rug Styles

There are as many rug styles as their are room styles,  - meaning there's an almost unending variety of options. Options have moved on from  traditional Persian rugs or classic European styles to modern and contemporary alternatives. Bold florals, strong geometrics,  simple jutes and sisals, and even novelty rugs, new printing techniques have opened up the design possibilities. You may want a shaggy rug to sink into or a practical easy to clean flatweave rug, Before settling on a style make sure to think about what kind of atmosphere you want to create in your room. And remember that a rug doesn't need to match everything in a room, but it should work with the textures and tones of the existing furnishings.

Colour

Colour is a natural starting point when choosing a rug. Obviously you need to think about what colours you like and what colours you'd like to live with day in and day out.

But that's not all. The colour of your area rug will set the tone for the entire room so it's an important decision. If you already have furniture consider how different colors will work with your existing items. If you already have a lot of color and pattern you might want to consider something neutral, or least something that's a single colour.

 If you don't already have furnishings consider how different rug colors will work with the tones of the flooring, walls, and ceiling. Rugs can either stand out or blend in, so think about what effect you want to create when considering colour.

Rug Patterns

Plain rugs v patterned ones - if your furniture and walls are all solid colours a patterned rug can really bring your room to life. Likewise, if you have patterned furniture a solid rug can have a grounding, calming effect. It's all about balance. If your room is already furnished take this into account before choosing a rug. However if the rug is one of the first items you're purchasing, think about what pattern is right for you. Do you want something eye-catching or a little more subtle? The effect a pattern has on a room is closely tied to its colours, so consider how the two will work together.

Rug Sizes

For some reason having a rug that's too small for the room it's in is still one of the most common decorating mistakes. For most average-sized rooms, there should be about 10" - 20" of bare floor between the edges of the rug and the walls of the room (depending on the size of the room you can go as low as 8” and as high as 24”).

Make sure the rug is centered in the room and the distance between the rug and the wall is the same on all four sides. You can also use rugs to define spaces. So if you have an open concept space, or you want to
