From two perspectives, truly beautiful rugs project thoughtfulness for your overall decor.

First, they are exciting fashion accents, easily changed, just as your mood or the season changes. For instant makeovers, add accessories, pillows and window treatments!  Second, truly unique rugs, especially heirloom - quality, inspire you to redesign a room or set the color palette for your whole home.

Inexpensive to collectible, there are rugs for everyone, fashioned in materials and textures to fit every lifestyle and budget. Such endless varieties also reflect so many moods, cultures and lifestyles - urban, classic, country, Victorian, Old World, even the naturals inspired by Mother Nature.  

Area rugs are helping to drive one of today’s top interior design trends - texture. A rug’s texture is both actual (comprising yarn, fiber and twist, plus shape) and visual (color and patterns),  which add flexibility to your overall design.   

Rugs do more than protect the floor or create rich-looking interest. They create a focal point, pulling together color, patterns and textures in your home. One trendy technique is “layering.” It’s rug-on-rug or rug-on-carpet for that new focal point and an unexpected grand expression. 

Use area rugs to pull together all your home fashion statements. Use them to connect spaces, transition from one room to another, mix-and-match colors and patterns, frame an already exquisite entrance in porcelain or stone, embellish overlooked areas, or coordinate the palette of your stair landings whether in broadloom, dark or light woods.

Ask about the proper cushion (from non-slip to a luxury feel) for beneath your rugs. When rug shopping, be organized with paint chips, fabric swatches, etc. Coordinate on the front end of your design, and look for the styles that will be a finishing touch - perhaps a keepsake.
