Complete Styling Guide

Expert tips for placing and styling your rug

Room-by-Room Placement

Living Room

Center your rug under the coffee table with all seating touching or on the rug. For open floor plans, use the rug to define the conversation area.

Bedroom

Place a large rug under the bed extending 2-3 feet on each side, or use runners on either side for a cozy morning landing spot.

Dining Room

Ensure the rug extends 24-30 inches beyond the table on all sides so chairs remain on the rug when pulled out.

Nursery

A padded CloudMat in the center creates a safe play zone. Position away from cribs but close to seating areas for tummy time.

Color & Pattern Matching

Neutral Furniture

Bold patterned or richly colored rugs add personality. Try geometric patterns or saturated jewel tones as focal points.

Colorful Decor

Solid neutral rugs in cream, grey, or beige provide visual rest and prevent the space from feeling overwhelming.

Modern Spaces

Abstract patterns or minimalist solid rugs in muted tones complement clean lines and contemporary furniture.

Traditional Rooms

Oriental patterns, medallions, or classic motifs in warm colors enhance heritage and antique furniture pieces.

Pro Designer Tips

  • When in doubt, size up. An undersized rug is the #1 decorating mistake.
  • Use painters tape to mock up dimensions before purchasing.
  • Layer rugs for added texture - place a smaller patterned rug over a larger neutral base.
  • Rotate your rug 180° every 6 months to ensure even wear and sun exposure.
