Which area rug to choose

3 years ago

Hi! I looking for a area rug for my new house and I got a very good offer from a carpet shop which is the Persian rug 293X387cm (attach pic 1 )
1)I am not sure does it suit my furniture in the living hall ?
My entrance (from the main door) will put a big console table (pic 2) then will come place a white or beige color two seater fabric sofa(similar layout as pic 3) and a coffee table in the center ( haven’t got it yet , please recommend) and two single wooden chairs (pic 4)with a matching round table on the side.
What I am worried is the design of the carpet is too eye catching, will it goes well with my furniture and layout ?
Should I choose another design which is smaller (248X332cm) in lighter color ? (Pic 5)
Please advise and thank you so much !

Hi, Could you add a pic of the lounge area outside bedrooms? There seem to be too many palettes of colours within furniture from white tv cabinet to dark brown book shelf to light brown dining to black/blue/beige sitting pieces. Tie up sitting by adding few cushions in possibly black/white/blue combo. Extend sitting area of living through the entire span of AC wall. You need a larger rug for this space. Angle dining table between 30 to 45 degrees with long length between detached counter corner to bookshelf end towards lounge. This will add the flow to lounge. Add a table runner along the centre of the long length. You need larger artwork pics or a collection of art pieces on living room wall behind beige sofa. Lounge can have a console and wall with a composition of family picture frames to personalise space. Remove blue artwork in the last pic. Instead, you can add a composition of wall shelves with artefacts on them or wall hooks with hanging artefacts. Rugs, table lamps, floor lamps and few bold decorative pieces will add the required warmth. A round centre table in the living room can be good.

You have a very difficult room to work with here. For the curtains I would definitely choose something with pattern and a color that will "warm up the space" . I would buy longer panels that would go to atleast the top of the baseboard. I would also add a textured bamboo shade in a warm wood tone behind the curtains. By layering the window treatments you can completely hide the window when you don't want to see it without having to mess with the curtains. If you are going to keep all of the furnishings that you have in the room, I would defintely rearrange them. I would try to wall-mount the TV on the wall where the white sofa is now.You could place it on a hinged bracket which would allow you to swing it out for viewing and then push back out of the way when not in use. If cou cannot wall mount it, I still think that I would relocate it here. I would place the white sofa in front of the window (with it's lovely new blinds and curtains) which would supply a better "backdrop" for it than the white wall which it is now blending into. If you could, it would actually be a good idea to lose the white couch altogether, leave the black sofa where it is, and place a low bench or a pair of ottomans facing the black couch thus creating a conversation group while still being able to see over them when watching TV. I would define the seating group with a plush area rug with plenty of warm color that will compliment your new curtains while warming up the white floors. In fact, since the rug is probably going to be the most expensive item I would pick it out first and let it set the color palette for you.

Hi ... hope this story helps https://www.houzz.com.sg/magazine/how-do-i-choose-a-rug-stsetivw-vs~108670375 It says: "If you want your rug to be centred in the room, have about 30 to 40 centimetres of border (edge of rug to the wall) all around it. However, if the rug is being used to highlight a living area or a piece of furniture, have it at least 10 to 15 centimetres larger than the furniture or area."
