Contemporary Area Rugs

Contemporary area rugs are one of the few home decor items that can change the style and mood of an entire room in a moment. A contemporary area rug of unique design or striking colors will immediately draw the eye and become the focal point of the room. You can use this home decoration feature to highlight a prized piece of furniture like your baby grand piano or a teak coffee table and that fabulous new sofa. Large area rugs are 9′x12′ and larger. The 5′x7′ Swank Pop Rocks contemporary area rugs in black and brown shown below are hand-woven in India from 100% wool.

Your area rug can unify the color scheme of adjoining rooms by providing accents or by even serving as the base color. A contemporary decorator trend is to match the bedroom area rug with the color scheme of the bedding. Area rugs come in so many styles, designs, colors, and materials that the possibilities are endless. Consider two or more area rugs for the same space. A cheap area rug can still be attractive enough for everyday use and then replaced with the heirloom Persian rug when special guests are on the way.

A braided rug in the kid’s room can protect the expensive Berber carpets from spills and make their favorite cartoon character a roommate at the same time. If you’re a little late on the spills a 5×8 room rug can hide many sins.

A kitchen rug is an accent piece but perhaps more importantly it can save some wear and tear on your legs when you must spend serious prep time at the counter or the sink, especially if the floor is tile or hardwood. Bathroom throw rugs prevent slips and falls and just feel good after a shower on a winter morning.

Frequent vacuuming and commercial hot water extraction cleaning every one or two years will keep the fiber healthy and the colors of your area rug vibrant for a very long time.
