£ RUG SIZE AND SHAPE
How do y oil choose the right rug shape
for a room? I can't tell if round, oblong, rectangular
;
or square
should be used and where to place it under furniture.
Heather Haugh, Concord, NC
STEPHEN:
Area rugs are particular to the spaces they go in, so here are
examples of rug options for several living areas. In any room, start by
thinking about where the furniture works best. In this living room,
sketch
above,
the fireplace is the centerpiece, so furniture is placed around it. I
chose a large square rug (
1
), big enough for all the furniture legs to rest
on, to anchor the seating area. In the diningroom, I chose a round rug to
accentuate the shape of the dining room table (
2
). I n a foyer where there
is high traffic flow, I would use a washable runner (3) to lead your eye
into the rest of the home. If rugs are visible through multiple rooms,
consider choosing a common color in each of the rugs (4,5) to tie them
together without matching them. If you’re not confident about pulling
colors and textures together, a natural fiber rug or sisal will give you more
flexibility, especially if you want to change wall color later. All of these
tips work if you have wall-to-wall carpeting, too. Just use area rugs over
them to define different uses, i®
