Living rooms are, without a doubt, the central gathering places in our homes. They are where we spend our time lounging and relaxing. That is why they should be aesthetically pleasing and comfortable. Living room area rugs are must-have pieces for living rooms. They will add a sense of warmth and comfort to any space they are placed in. They also bring some color and texture into this central place of your home. They are great for anchoring the furniture in your living room, creating a cozy and comfortable environment.

Choosing the Right Size

Choosing the right size rug is extremely important. If the rug size is too big, it can overwhelm the space, making the room look much smaller than it is. On the other side, if the rug is too small, it can make the room feel disjointed. As you can see, measuring your living room before purchasing is essential before purchasing a living room area rug.

Smaller area rugs, such as 5x7 or 5x8, work better with smaller living rooms. Smaller living room rugs can make a room look larger than it is. Placing these rugs in front of your sofa and chairs and centering the coffee table in the middle is the classic layout you can’t go wrong with.

8x10 area rugs can be used in larger living room spaces. They are the perfect piece to tie the room together. If your sofa and furniture are placed against a wall, these rugs are the best option to lay in between since no one will be stepping behind them.

Large area rugs such as 9x12 or oversize rugs are ideal for large rooms. They can be used to define seating areas in large and open spaces. These rugs are large enough to hold all sofas and other furniture on them, so they are the perfect pick if your furniture is not placed against the walls.

Best Living Room Area Rugs to Choose

Living room area rugs are great pieces to tie everything together. That is why it is crucial to consider several factors when picking one.

  • Color & Pattern: Adding a living room area rug is a great way to incorporate colors into your design. Depending on your décor style, picking a subtle and minimalist area rug can tone a dramatic or intense color scheme down to a healthy dose. Or you can simply add a pop of color to your living room with neutral color schemes. Patterns can be used to catch the eye or draw attention away from other furniture to create mesmerizing spaces.
  • Texture: Texture comes into play in terms of comfortability. The pile of area rugs you pick plays a huge role. Area rugs come in both high and low-pile designs. High pile area rugs are soft and comfortable, and they are suitable for rooms that don’t have high foot traffic. Pick a low-pile area rug is better if your living room has high foot traffic. Low-pile area rugs can withstand walking and kids or pets playing on them. Regarding durability and cleanability, low-pile area rugs are better than their high-pile counterparts.

Conclusion

Adding a living room area rug is a fantastic way to elevate your interior design and make your home feel inviting. The added beauty isn’t the only thing you get, though. The comfort that the right area rug brings into your living room will definitely be worth it.

Since area rugs significantly impact the look and feel of our living rooms, it’s crucial to find the right one. As we have mentioned, the first step should be measuring your living room. You probably have a style going by this time, so deciding on color and patterns comes next. Always take note of the general color scheme of your room before deciding on the area rug. After all, you want a rug that will fill the space and bolster your design choices.
