What Color Rug Should I Get?

It All Starts With Style

The style of your rug will change how it looks as well as its durability. Think about where you plan the rug to be. Is it between high-traffic areas? Will it be used in a small space? Does it only serve as a floor protector in an entryway? Areas with lots of foot traffic can benefit from having a rug made with strong material like wool or synthetic blends that are also easy to clean. Part of the rug styles you'll choose from does include some color picking, but on a higher level. Darker colors show less dirt while bright, vibrant colors can bring extra energy into the room.

Make Sure It Fits the Space

Now for the Rug Color and Pattern

The moment you've been waiting for, it's time to pick a color or design that will match your home decor and wall colors while still meeting your practical needs. Start by reviewing your current color scheme and see which colors stand out most. Your rug should be an accent color that complements at least two of the most prominent colors in the room. A shopping tip to help you make the right decision in store is to find a color swatch that matches your primary colors, or simply grab a throw pillow in that same shade and tote it into the store for direct matching!
