Take a look around your living room or bedroom. Does it feel boring, uninspiring or a little empty? When a room feels lackluster, it’s often because one element is missing: an interesting rug! Quality rugs are one of the most important elements of any room and are well worth the investment, especially for a piece that will last a lifetime.
At Bon Brise Design, we use Tufenkian Carpets in many of our projects and have teamed up to bring you our top three favorite styles that can easily slip into any home. Before choosing your next rug of any size, consider one of these beautiful styles!
Traditional
Traditional rugs are woven designs that have evolved over thousands of years. They are an art form unlike any other. Traditional rugs add a sense of luxury and timelessness that other styles lack. They can be found in thousands of color combinations and designs and can easily harmonize with many décor styles. We particularly love finding one that comprises several colors or elements from a space or one with a single primary color for a toned-down look.
Contemporary
Contemporary rugs also come in a wide variety of styles. These are perfect for a living room or bedroom with a design centered around clean lines and simple accents. Modern, industrial condos and lofts are another space to be softened with a contemporary piece. For a feminine touch, the perfect bold florals are appropriate for any age and can bring a sense of playfulness to a space. Want to go bold? Try a deep red carpet with a contemporary geometric pattern.
Subtle
These pieces are exactly what they sound like – subtle! Subtle rugs are often one color centric and can create an elegant vibe when paired with the right furniture. We used a subtle rug in one of our favorite spaces, Downsizing With Style, to soften the look of the dark hardwood flooring. When a room is already home to bold pieces, a subtle carpet can create a rich background for the rest of the space to shine.
No matter your aesthetic, one of these styles is sure to be perfect for any room in your home. Which one do you love most? We’d love to hear! Let us know on Facebook.
