How to Choose the Right Rug for Your Lounge
January 15, 2019
A rug can make or break your lounge and choosing the right one is not as easy as you may have imagined. The biggest designing mistake that you can make is to head out to buy a rug without putting much thought into it!
It is important to realize that there are several factors that contribute to helping you choose the right decorative rug that can increase the aesthetic appeal of your lounge by folds! Let’s have a quick look at how you can pick a rug that suits your style and décor.
Shape and Size
Choosing the right shape and size is the most critical part of the buying process. Go too small and it will look awkward. On the other hand, a rug that is too big will not be able to fit in your space! Similarly, choosing the wrong shape can also mess up the overall look.
The rule of the book is to have all your furniture or at least, the front legs of your sofa on the carpet. So make sure you buy a rug that is big enough to fulfill this purpose. Also, keep in mind that a rectangular rug looks great in a rectangular room, while square and round rugs work well for a square room.
Color and Pattern
Your rug plays an important part in deciding the color scheme of your lounge. Go for a color from the base color palette of your décor. Usually, monochromatic rugs complement patterned furniture so try matching the rug to the primary color in your patterned sofa. On the other hand, if your furniture is of a solid color or neutral, go for a playful patterned rug.
Keep these expert tips in mind to choose the right rug every time!
