Unlike rugs of other regular shapes, considerations of a round rug in the living room may confuse you in deciding what should be the placement, which room and corners should it be placed in, and what size and pattern should you buy? You may not always be successful in decorating a living room using a round rug.
Round Rugs Decoration Tips
We’ll take you on a tour to explore a few interesting possibilities to make use of round rugs in the living room for an enhanced look and connectivity in the décor.
1. In a minimalist setting
Especially when a space has a minimal appearance and is not cluttered with so many decorative, round rugs have more credibility to stand out and make their presence felt. The curvy edges of the round rug in the living room will just fit into the demeanor of a minimalist interior.
2. Layering with round rugs
When you wish to mix up multiple rugs in a room, layering is one of the options especially for a small round rug or if the room is not large enough to accommodate many area rugs in a discrete fashion. Here again, the round rugs can take the opportunity to create a heterogeneous atmosphere when you layer different size rugs. The solid charcoal rug can be perfect for layering, drawing attention due to its solid color.
3. Dressing up a corner
You can use a small round rug to define the corners of a large room beneath furniture pieces to make it functional besides being decorative. Just dress up the favorite corner of your room with your favorite furniture and place a small round rug underneath. It will delicately spruce up the corner, making it adorable to step on.
4. Other prominent areas to decorate using round rugs
Other than the living room, round rugs can come in handy to decorate and spruce up other areas of a home to introduce the charm and a welcome vibe. Prominent among them are the dining area and the entryways.
a) In entryways: Drawing the visitor’s attention
You can use a patterned, floral round rug as a vignette in the hallways and the entryways to define its characteristics and draw the attention of a guest. A small round rug will complement the furnishing or add interest to an otherwise empty area of the entryways.
b) Under the round dining table
A Shaped, round rug under round dining tables and curvy furniture will create harmony, making the curvy furniture connected to the rest of the décor. Also, make sure that the round rug is large enough to accommodate the chairs when you pull them out before starting to eat.
The bottom line
Using a round rug as a visual focal point in the room, in entryways, and around the corners in large rooms, paired with furniture pieces, or otherwise will give your space something to bridge the gap in your decoration while adding fascinating curves that are not very common.
