How to Choose the Perfect Rug for Any Room
Adding a rug is one of the easiest ways to introduce warmth, texture, and a finished look to any space. At Norwalk Furniture & Design in Lexington, KY, our experienced team will help you choose the right rug to complement your style and lifestyle. We consider how the room is used, the existing furniture, and the overall flow of your home.
Something to consider when choosing your rug is the size and shape. A rug should frame the furniture, not float in the middle of the space. Rectangular rugs work well in almost all settings from living and dining rooms to entryways, bedrooms, and other areas.
Next, consider the pile height of your rug. High-pile rugs feel plush and cozy underfoot, making them perfect for bedrooms. Flatweaves and low-pile rugs are more durable and ideal for high use areas like living rooms, hallways, and dining areas.
Color and pattern will set the tone. Don’t be afraid to layer rugs or use different textures in open-concept spaces. Go bold and make a statement to add character to a neutral space, or opt for soft neutral colors to create a calm and cohesive look. If your furniture is patterned, a solid or tonal rug can add balance.
At Norwalk, our design team will help you select the perfect rug for any room. From modern patterns to timeless textures, we source styles in every size, shape, and material to suit your space.
