Contemporary Area Rugs

Finding a contemporary rug online to buy that suits your home’s interior is an easy task. This modern floor covering can add a fresh and upscale look, and can also offer whimsical abstract and modern styling. When searching, try to choose a color scheme that works for your room such as grey, black, white, yellow, blue, brown, gray, multi colored, red, black and white and a style that blends nicely into your living area without making any major changes. Additional color schemes such as turquoise, dark, rust colored, teal, light, cream, burgundy, gold, royal blue, beige, mustard, coral or taupe can work as well. If you like the modern look but have traditional furnishings, you can add some contemporary accents such as vases, blinds, lamps, etc. to meld the traditional and modern styles together.

Decorating with Contemporary Area Rugs

You may feel a little overwhelmed choosing contemporary area rugs to suit your home’s specific needs, but you do not have to be! Contemporary, modern rugs can do a lot to bring a room together, no matter how small or large that room might be. When it comes to using these unique, bold, and beautiful rugs in your home, the possibilities are virtually limitless. However, if you are looking for a few suggestions to help you get started, check out these tips to give you some solid ideas.

Stick to Your Budget

Buying an inexpensive area rug with a modern twist does not have to be impossible. You have a lot of options when it comes to shopping for rugs in just about any budget. If you only have a small amount of money to spend on buying your contemporary rug, be sure to check out outlet stores and look for any other ways to get a cheap rug that still looks great. If outlet stores do not have what you are looking for, you can easily find what you need for sale online. You can purchase contemporary rugs in a wide variety of price ranges, starting at around $20 per rug and going up from there. Whether you want to spend plenty of money to pick up a beautiful and elegant one-of-a-kind rug or you’re looking to bring home your next piece of décor at a discount, you have plenty of choices to help you find the right rug. Remember to keep your eyes peeled for rugs that might be on sale, and always keep your budget in mind when shopping. If you do not have enough money to spend on an expensive rug to begin with, that is not a problem! When you work with contemporary rugs, you can do just as much with your space by utilizing a sale rug as you can with an expensive textile. Of course, it is always a good idea to keep other factors in mind when choosing the right rug for your home décor.

Pick the Right Shape

Depending on the room you are looking to decorate, you might have very different needs in your rug. For example, if you are searching for the perfect contemporary rug to draw your kitchen together, you might want to choose a beautiful oval rug to place in the center of the room or near your dining space. This type of rug and placement can work together to create a beautiful, comfortable, homey feel that never goes out of style in a dining room. On the other hand, if you will be spreading your rug out in a living room or similar space, you can fall back on the more traditional 8 x 10 or square rugs instead. These rugs usually draw the eye directly to the center of the room, and they can make for a great focal point for the rest of your décor. A smaller room might do well with a more unique round rug at its center, however, so be sure to consider the size of room you have to work with.

Pick the Right Material

Different spaces call for different types of fabric. For example, you would not want to use a simple, lightweight throw rug in your dining room, because it would be impossible to clean it well if any food should get spilled on it. Although material is not the number one deciding factor in your rug purchase, you should still keep it in mind to choose the right rug for your home. Shag rugs are very common in the world of contemporary design, especially because they tend to really draw attention to themselves. However, while a shag rug might look great in the living room, it once again might not be the best choice for the kitchen. Other types of wool rugs with shorter piles might work better for any room where your rug runs the risk of coming into contact with food and drink frequently.

Choose the Perfect Color

Now it is time for the fun part! One of the most exciting aspects of buying a new rug is choosing the right color scheme for your space. If you will be using your rug in the kitchen, you might want to stick to some more muted colors, such as a gentle blue, dusty purple, or even tan or brown. This can help make your space seem more comfortable and approachable, and these colors always look great in a dining room area. On the other hand, if you are using your rug as the focal point for your living room, do not be afraid to go with something much more bright and colorful. Choose an abstract rug with plenty of sharp colors like orange, red, and yellow that can work together to create a bold design that is sure to draw the attention of each and every one of your guests. If you prefer something modern with a slightly more traditional twist, however, you can always go with a timeless floral design instead. If you choose this option, be sure to use décor around the room to bring out the accent colors in the rug, like the green of the leaves surrounding the floral print. Perhaps the most popular modern rug color scheme is black and white. You can do a lot with a stark white room with a bold black rug in the center, or you can use these colors to accent a monochrome room from floor to ceiling. Black and white rooms also look great with grey rugs to help bring together the contrast of the two opposing colors.

No matter how you choose to decorate with your contemporary rug, you really only need to spread it on the floor and let it work its magic. These rugs can bring a room together with almost no help at all, and when you coordinate the fixtures and furniture to complement your rugs, your space will pop in no time.
