5 Ways to Decorate With Rugs
- Define Areas: The living room seating, the dining room table and the entrance to your apartment are three areas that can be easily defined with an area rug. And for studio apartment living, area rugs are a great way to define the open space.
- Establish Quiet: Using fabrics throughout your home is one way to absorb sounds from neighbors or outside activity. Yet, area rugs can also be used to quiet the interior decor—softening hard surfaces, blending upholstery colors, and adding subtle contrast to neutral walls.
- Create Variety: There is no decorating rule stating only one area rug is allowed per room. Using two rugs of the same size can create the illusion of separate spaces. When you use two different-sized area rugs, it adds a sense of diversity to the room.
- Focal Point: Since an area rug makes an impact by creating visual diversity, they are famous for creating a focal point in the room. Use a contrasting color or an intricate pattern to subtly create a point of focus in your decor.
- Add Harmony: The color, style and shape of an area rug can effectively blend a room's decor and create a pleasant harmony to the entire space. Muted tones, without patterns which are complementary to your home furnishings, are a great way to establish harmony.
Area rugs can be used to brighten, soften, or coordinate your home decor. If you are searching for great community living in Flagstaff apartments, contact us to discover the country club amenities at Butterfield apartment homes.
