To choose the right indoor rug, it is essential to determine the type of rug your room will have. You'll need to consider the style and shape of the future rug, its material, and its dimensions.
What's great about indoor rugs is the wide variety available, allowing you to choose the perfect one to suit your décor. Some popular styles include the Berber rug, cowhide rug (ideal for modern interiors), geometric-shaped rugs (perfect for Scandinavian or vintage styles), and jute rugs (a great fit for coastal décor).
There is a rug for every style of living room, bedroom, or other room in the house. You can have fun personalising each room by matching the design and colour, from floor to ceiling. So, make sure your indoor rug blends with your room's decoration.
In a room with neutral décor, you can either stick to neutral tones with a beige rug or add a pop of colour to make a bold statement. Rugs can be that perfect design touch, the element that transforms the entire space!
For a dark and elegant décor, opt for grey or black if your furniture is light.
The choice of rug shape will set the tone for your décor. Here are the most common rug shapes and how you can use them in the living room, bedroom, or dining room:
There are many synthetic fibre rugs on the market. Easy to maintain and offering excellent value for money, synthetic rugs are very popular.
They are the best allies for households with children since stains are easy to clean. Common materials include polyester, polypropylene, or acrylic, which give the rugs a contemporary or vintage design.
Wool, cotton, leather, jute: all of these natural materials will make your interior feel warm and can be adapted to your décor. Cotton is soft and easy to care for, creating a cocoon-like design in your living room or bedroom.
Leather and jute are perfect for adding character to your room, though they may not be as comfortable underfoot as other materials. Leather can feel cold in winter and warm in summer, while jute is a bit rough to the touch. However, the unique texture and style they bring to your décor make them well worth it.
Wool, on the other hand, is an excellent material for indoor rugs as it resists wear and matting, although it tends to be a bit more expensive.
Taking the example of the living room, you'll need to know the room’s size, the furniture it contains (is the sofa large or light?), the purpose of the rug in the room, etc.
It is essential to know how you will use your future indoor rug: will it be used to create particular corners in the living room by defining space, or to give a different feel to the room’s décor?
The size of the living room or bedroom should be considered when choosing the rug size. With a large sofa, sideboard, or bookshelf, you can opt for a bigger rug (from 160 x 230cm).
If you choose a rug that is too small for the rest of your furniture, it may get lost in the space. On the other hand, if your room is small and the furniture is light, a smaller rug would be a better fit.
To give you an idea, here’s a list of the common rug sizes:
In summary, the size of your rug should complement both the size of your room and the furniture within it. If placing it under a table, ensure it extends slightly on all sides to enhance the space.
