Why Choose Area Rugs?
Area rugs are more than just décor—they're essential for creating a welcoming and functional home. Here are a few reasons why investing in an area rug can benefit your space:
- A Style Upgrade: A beautiful rug can turn a bland room into a cozy, stylish haven. It adds color, pattern, and texture to refresh your interior design instantly.
- Floor Protection: Area rugs shield your hard-surface floors from scratches, scuffs, and everyday wear, whether it’s from high heels, furniture legs, or playful pets.
- Warmth and Comfort: Rugs provide a soft surface underfoot, making rooms feel warmer and more inviting. They’re perfect for adding coziness to living rooms, bedrooms, and even hallways.
- Space Definition: Area rugs are fantastic for defining spaces, especially in open-concept layouts. Anchor a dining area, living room, or entryway with the perfect rug to highlight it.
Custom Area Rugs Catered to You
Not every room has a "standard" shape or size, and that’s where custom area rugs come in. Whether you’re designing a rug with unique dimensions or selecting colors and patterns to complement your space, customization lets you have the perfect fit and style.
Benefits of a Custom Rug
- Tailored Sizing: Create a rug to fit a unique layout or oversized room perfectly.
- Durable and Long-Lasting: Opt for materials like wool or synthetic fibers for high-traffic areas.
- One-of-a-Kind Design: Showcase your style with options matching your décor while standing out as a centerpiece.
At our San Antonio showrooms, we also offer in-house binding options to craft the rug of your dreams.
Decorating with Area Rugs
Area rugs can tie a room together beautifully, but the right size, shape, and placement are key. Here are some tips for different spaces in your home:
Choosing the Right Size for Each Room
- Living Rooms: Anchor your seating area with a rug large enough to sit under the front legs of your sofa and chairs. For larger spaces, opt for a rug that extends beyond the seating arrangement to define the room.
- Bedrooms: Place the rug under the bottom two-thirds of your bed so it extends beyond the sides and foot for a luxe look. Alternatively, use runners on either side for a space-saving yet stylish touch.
- Dining Areas: Choose a rug that allows for all chairs to remain on the rug when pulled out—aim for at least 24 inches of extension around the table for comfort.
- Hallways: Use a runner that leaves 4 to 6 inches of visible floor space on either side for a balanced aesthetic.
Shape Matters
- Round Rugs work well for foyers or under circular dining tables.
- Square Rugs are ideal for square-shaped rooms or under square tables.
- Oval Rugs add unique flow and interest to bedrooms or casual dining areas.
Material Matters
Crafting the perfect rug starts with choosing the right material. Here’s how to select one based on your needs:
- Wool: Naturally soft, durable, and stain-resistant—perfect for high-traffic areas.
- Synthetic (e.g., nylon, polyester): Easy to clean, affordable, and available in countless colors and patterns.
- Cotton: Lightweight and washable, making it a go-to for kitchens or kids' spaces.
- Natural Fibers (e.g., jute, sisal): Eco-friendly with beautiful textures but better suited for decorative or low-traffic areas.
Make a Statement with Colors and Patterns
Choosing a rug is more than just picking fabric—it's about making a design statement.
- Complement or Contrast: Match the rug to your room’s color palette for a cohesive look or choose a bold design to add visual interest.
- Layer Textures: Layer a patterned rug over a neutral carpet for extra dimension.
- Mix Styles Thoughtfully: Combine subtle rugs with statement furniture or bold rugs in minimalist rooms.
Taking Care of Your Rug
Regular maintenance is key to keeping your area rug looking fresh and new.
- Weekly Cleaning: Vacuum your rug regularly to prevent dirt buildup. Rotate it every six months to ensure even wear.
- Stain Removal: Act fast! Blot spills immediately and use a cleaner based on your rug’s material.
- Rug Pads: Place a rug pad underneath to prevent slipping and extend the rug’s lifespan.
