Rugs
Area rugs are usually the foundation of the design of any room. Because of the proportion of an area rug in the whole scale, they naturally become a focal point. When you are choosing an area rug you need to consider what you are trying to accomplish with the addition of this rug. If you have furniture that is of bold design and you are trying to accentuate with a secondary focus you might need a more simple design, perhaps an area rug with a border. However, if you have very simple furniture and your goal is to bring on the WOW factor then you can choose an area rug that has bold design or brilliant color. Geometric patterns are a more modern design, whereas pictorial area rugs are a more traditional motif. A bordered area rug can help to make a vignette more intimate. The most important decision to make with area rugs is the size. Do you want the furniture to be on the rug or do you want the furniture to be outside of the rug? It is always a better design decision to vary the sizes of rugs in an open area. If you were to put two rugs of the same size in an open interior space you would be dividing the room in half. The density of the color in an area rug is very important also. Darker area rugs are much better for high traffic areas and certain colors are better camouflage for dirt and dust. Lighter area rugs are great in areas that do not get so much traffic. You can use area rugs to balance the tones in a design. For instance if your room is dark you can lighten it with a lighter rug and vice versa. Whatever area rug you choose you need to make sure there is a connecting factor of either geometry or color with the other elements of design in your room and The Home Decor Solution has made that easy for you to do.
