Rugs

Need A Rug?

Few items in a home possess the ability to effortlessly unify a room’s decor as effectively as a rug. Whether it serves as the inspiration for the entire space or adds a final, finishing touch, a rug can make or break the look and feel of your room.

What do I need to consider?

From dimensions and materials to style and craftsmanship, numerous factors must be carefully considered when choosing your rug. Such as where will the rug live and what purpose is it meant to serve, for example is it a statement piece or a functional one that prevents slips. Next, you’ll want to consider size, shape, style, material, and pile.
