The right rug can bring together a room, add instant T personality to your space and even work as a statement piece. But with so many options, how do we know what type of rug will work for which room?
Shaye Ford, interior designer and stylist at Miss Amara, shares her tips on how to select and style a rug throughout your home.
LIVING ROOM
When styling a rug in the living room, consider lifestyle factors and size.
If you're looking for something soft and cosy, opt for a rug with a high pile that is super-plush underfoot. If you want a living room rug that is suitable for kids and pets, go for a washable, flatweave, or easy-care rug.
As for finding the perfect size, you need to consider the space you're working with. For a generous area, aim to buy a rug large enough to fit all your furniture on it. The last thing you want is for your furniture to feel squashed and constricted.
In a smaller space, you want your feet to be placed on the rug when you're sitting on the lounge, so ensure the rug is big enough for at least the front legs of the furniture to sit on it.
AVOID: Arranging your furniture around a rug that's too small.
