Area rugs are a fantastic combination of style and utility and can be used to bring together the décor of a room, protect your floor or as a quick & easy way to brighten up tired looking décor. Area rugs can be used to link various colours and styles and bring them together to give the room mood and ambience by harmonizing colours and shapes.

The primary colours of the rug should compliment the furniture, walls, and furniture colours. Area rugs can also be used to focus attention on other décor or an area rug can form the centrepiece of the room. Large rugs with a medallion design will gain the most attention and are available in a variety of materials, colours & shapes.

Area rugs have come down in price significantly over the past 10years and synthetic rugs can now be made with much of the same detail and colour as handmade rugs but at a fraction of the cost. Synthetic rugs are also hardwearing and can often be taken out and scrubbed or hosed. The only difficulty in this country is getting enough good weather to get them dry! Care should also be taken not to place furniture on newly washed wet rugs as they will leave a permanent stain. Small spills can also be cleaned by diluting the spill and being brushed gently from outside to the centre.

Machine manufactured rugs are extremely durable and can withstand high levels of traffic and with prices starting as low as £35 at stores like The Rug House they represent fantastic value for money. Prices such as these also mean that rugs can be changed more regularly to brighten any room without having to carry out exhaustive redecorating.
