What are the main things we think about when we are thinking of purchasing a rug? Well, the first thing is the area it is going to serve.

Living Area

Selecting a rug for a living area should be based on comfort and style. A living area is usually the most utilised space in the home, so adding comfort to this area with an area rug is key to adding that warming relaxing vibe. Soft furnishings help satisfy our senses, generating cosiness, this is why many people opt to place a rug in their living space.

A living area rug is also used to add interest; by adding a bold statement with a geometric rug to a minimal area or adding to the theme of a room tying the décor together with an animal print rug or in a certain colourway, selecting for a living area brings plenty of choices. Investing in luxury with a designer rug adds absolute grandeur to any area, however, most favour the living room.

Size and shape are also something to consider, whether your rug is to sit under furniture covering a large proportion of the space or to sit in front of a fireplace the right size and shape of carpet are vital to the overall effect.

When selecting a rug for a dining area there are a couple of key points to consider. The most common place for a rug to be situated in a dining area is under the dining table. For the room to look balanced, it's necessary for the rug to extend past the chairs. The general rule of thumb is by at least 24 inches, allowing guests to pull out their chairs without tripping over the rug.

Another thing to consider with a dining room rug is the material it's made from. Dining areas are prone to spillages due to the nature of the room. This often resulting in stains, however, by choosing the correct rug material you can avoid this headache. The materials you want your dining room rug to be made from are polypropylene, nylon, acrylic, or polyester. These materials are easy to clean and some even suitable for bleach cleaning should you need to; making them perfect for this area.

Kitchen rugs are gaining popularity recently, especially in tying the décor of the room together. There are plenty of patterns to choose from depending on your kitchen style, whether it's a retro kitchen rug, the traditional or modern rug you're after.

The essential part of choosing a kitchen area rug is the material it's made from. Choosing a synthetic fibre rug is the safest option for the longevity of the rug. Rugs made from polypropylene, nylon, acrylic, or polyester are highly durable and easy to clean, making them more suitable for the area.

Bedroom

When choosing a bedroom rug the main element of making it the correct choice is having comfort at the heart of it. Think about it, in a bedroom space you are usually barefoot, it's the most relaxing space in the home, where you want to feel the most content when easing into slumber. Popular choices include wool rugs, and shaggy rugs, which come available in so many different designs, colours and shapes which will compliment almost any décor or theme.

Outdoor

Outdoor rugs have become the new trend in recent times and rightly so, our outdoor space is an extension of our indoor space. Rugs made from polypropylene are great for high moisture or heavy traffic areas. They have a natural-fibre appearance, but unlike most natural fibres, they are able to absorb water. They will last longer if you put them in a covered area, and keep them clean, however, with UV stabilizers, these polypropylene rugs won't fade from too much sunlight making them perfect for the outdoors. Easy to clean, you can hose your rug down should it get dirty, but due to the durability of the synthetic fibres this will not compromise the rug, just restore it like new.

Children's Room
