Rugs
A beautiful and stylish rug can really help pull a room together. It’s a statement piece that plays a big role in how a room looks and feels, providing symmetry, balance and flow. Whether it’s for the master bedroom, living room or guest space, a good rug should be timeless. The possibilities are endless when it comes to choosing a rug, but there are several things to also keep in mind—read on to find out.
How to Find the Perfect Rug
- Know the size you need first. Pull out the measuring tape and map out the size of the rug before you buy it. Too big, and it’ll completely dwarf the furniture. Too small, and it’ll look like it’s floating in the middle of the room.
- Functionality is just as important as visual appeal. Who will be walking all over your rug and how often? Handwoven denim, leather and cotton rugs are able to withstand daily wear and tear, especially if you have pets or kids in the house.
- Shaggy or smooth? A classic shag offers comfort and warmth as well as style, and comes in a variety of colours. Use as a floor rug, throw or underlay.
- The colour of your rug will set the tone for your entire room. Neutral tones work with rooms that use a lot of colour or patterns, and can make a space feel bigger. Bold patterns add a stylish, contemporary feel. Jute rugs have a nice earthy vibe. Bright colours bring a burst of energy, while muted and vintage colours like blue, green and purple create a calm atmosphere.
- What type of flooring will your rug cover? Pair warm-toned timbers with warmer shades, and lighter, more modern timbers with shades of grey, navy and white. Rugs can also add much-needed warmth to tile and hardwood floors.
- Why limit yourself to just one rug? Use multiple rugs in larger rooms to define different areas. Layer a smaller rug on top of a larger rug, contrasting different colours and materials.
- A rectangle or square is great for under beds or living room spaces. Round rugs help soften rooms with clean lines and hard edges, and look nice underneath a round table. Hide rugs can help fill an awkward gap or space. Sweep bland and boring under the rug! Head to your nearest Myer store to choose from a wide variety of rugs from all your favourite brands.
