A rug is a beautiful way to make your home feel softer and cozier. It is also a great way to add color and pattern to a room that might otherwise be difficult or impossible to change. It can also help to tie a room together and create a focal point for the design.
Rugs have been woven for centuries in many different materials and techniques. The most common material is wool, but other fabrics like cotton and plant fibers including jute are used as well. Modern rug makers also work with synthetic fibers that offer new possibilities. The variety of rugs available today reflects our changing lifestyles and values.
The type of rug you choose will be determined by the room it is going in. For example, a kitchen rug should be easy to clean and typically this means something like a flatweave or low-pile. Living rooms and bedrooms can get a higher pile rug that feels more luxurious underfoot and adds a touch of softness to the space.
When buying a rug it is important to make sure the size is proportional to the furniture in the room. A rug that is too small can look choppy and cheap. On the other hand, a rug that is too large can overwhelm a space and look chaotic.
