One of the easiest ways to update your space is with luxury rugs. There are floor coverings for every room of your home, so you can find an accent rug for the bedroom or an area rug for the living room. Some of the rugs at Williams Sonoma can used indoors and outdoors, making them a great choice for the entryway or patio.
The Advantages of Luxury Rugs
There are plenty of benefits that come with a new rug. First and foremost, the addition of a rug imparts colour and character to the room. It's a great way to tie in your furniture and home accents for a cohesive look. For example, you could match a rug that has tones of Grey with Grey curtains and furniture with a weathered finish for a perfectly coordinated appearance. Of course, there are no rules to follow when decorating -- experiment with colour combinations to find what works for you.
Another reason to love a high-end rug is that feels luxurious under your feet when you walk. This is especially true if you select a floor covering with a thick, dense pile -- such as one of Williams Sonoma's hand-knotted wool rugs. They're made in India by skilled craftspeople and yarn-dyed for lasting colour. You can also make a rug more comfortable to walk on by adding a rug pad underneath.
Rugs also help protect your original floor. For areas that receive a lot of foot traffic, consider an indoor/outdoor rug made from a durable material like jute or sisal. Or, you could choose a rug made from a high-performance acrylic. These rugs are great for kids' rooms because they're tough and stain-resistant.
There's a rug style for every preference. If you like an exotic look, go for an animal print or Moroccan-inspired floor covering. There are Southwestern-inspired rugs, as well as those with modern geometric patterns. For a floor covering that's both timeless and on-trend, opt for a monochromatic rug in a neutral colour like Grey or tan.
Coordinating Home Accents
Achieve a look that appears professionally decorated by pairing luxury rugs with home accent pieces. Williams Sonoma has decorative pillows and throws that you can coordinate with your rug. There are also wall hangings in a wide variety of styles, and decorative objects for shelves and mantels. Explore the floor coverings and accents to find the pieces that reflect your personal sense of style.
