4 Area Rug Trends for 2019
First, the fact that area rugs are ‘trending’ for 2019 reveals yet another trend in home décor. At least for the foreseeable future, plush, wall-to-wall carpets are out.
But the demise of wall-to-wall carpets is not the reason for the rise in popularity of area rugs.
Homeowners increasing look to add more character to their home decor, and different looks and feels for every room. They also want options in the materials they choose, and to make it easier to keep their homes cleaner and dust-free.
Area rugs offer it all.
Watch for These Area Rug Trends for 2019
With so many advantages, it’s worth making area rugs part of your home redecorating plans in 2019.
1. Use A Variety of Designs
As we said, interior decorators appreciate the design versatility that area rugs offer to set the tone for every room. Bold and/or multicoloured rugs are particularly popular, but not necessarily in every room. Bedrooms call for more relaxing colours and subdued designs. Also consider a mix of contemporary and traditional designs.
2. Area Rugs in Your Foyer
First impressions last. A smaller area rug in the entryway of your home not only creates a great first impression, but it can also help keep the rest of your home cleaner. And when your entryway area rug gets dirty, it’s relatively easy to clean.
3. Larger Rug Sizes
Larger area rug sizes will be more popular as they can have they look and feel of wall-to-wall, while still have all the design and versatility advantages of an area rug. In the living room, choose sizes that will cover open floor area and extend under sofas, chairs and tables.
4. Low-Pile Rugs
Low-pile area rugs have two added advantages. They are even easier to clean and you don’t see any leg marks on them when you rearrange your furniture.
