A rug is nice and soft on your feet, it dampens sound and retains heat. But did you know that a rug is one of the most atmospheric parts of your living room? Large, deep pile, plain or a rug with a print, there is so much choice. First, it is important to make sure the rug matches the floor and your furniture.
Use the rug to frame your seating area
Make sure that the rug is at least on the front legs of your sofa and armchair. This way you connect your furniture with each other and create an attractive unity in your seating area. A round rug is also a very suitable choice for this. Especially if your home has an open-plan living space, a rug is a good way to separate the living areas without the need for a wall or room divider.
Tip: Do you have a sofa bed in the living room? Then it is smart to choose a smooth woven or short pile rug.
