How to Choose a Rug For Your Living Room

​Classic Rugs for Your Living Room 

Isn’t it funny how rugs can make a room. To me they serve a few key purposes.
  1. They bring an organic coziness to a room
  2. They bring dimensional layering to the space
  3. They balance a room from other décor choices. – if you have a lot of patterns on the wall, a neutral rug can tie it together. Vis versa, if you have a lot of neutrals going on, you can add a patterned rug in the same color tone to create a fun and unique look. 

Once you know that you need a rug, a few questions come rushing in. What size do you I get, what type (shaggy, jute, woven), and then how do I place it, under the couch. Here are a few of my go-to rules for find the perfect size rug and how to place plus a few of the rugs I can’t get enough of right now! 
I found this little "cheat sheet" from the HomeEdit and it's the perfect starting point to help get a sense of size. In most of the below examples you can see that the sofa is either fully on or partially on the rug. I like this rule 90% of the time, but sometimes I want to show off gorgeous wood floors with some lifted mid-century modern furniture. In those cases I like to put one side of furniture on the rug and one side off. It keeps the balance of organic, while still enhancing the features of the room.
