Rug Help!

11 years ago

All, I dont post here often but I did in the past. Some of you might have seen this room before. I was wondering if you guys could help me decide on a rug for this room. I cant figure out what type of rug suits this room(transitional/contemporary etc.). Feels like I'm at a dead end, and hoping that I will get some direction from you guys. Room is in progress so bear with me and the lighting isn't helping either. TIA.

So many choices. Google peach/ brown modern area rug and see what jumps out at you, then go from there. Just an idea on this one...

Yes, the chairs and table on the left are not in the room anymore. Those were from before I had gotten the bar. That room is new and I have just been ordering things to try them out and then returning. I do like the bar but thats really the only thing that I am tied to. I have no rug in there now and am looking for suggestions. I am as far from a designer as you can get. I do not have a good eye for these things, but love reading all the advice here. Such great ideas. Thanks!

A 10’ x10’ would be great although 10’ x 11’would be ideal….you need 2.5’ to pull out chair comfortably so 5’ table plus 5’ for opposite chairs gives you just enough. If you need a walk path behind any of the chairs may need to adjust….

The plaid looks interesting in the picture. I usually have to see the real thing before I make a final decision. Try it out and if you don't like it return it. Get the rug large enough that it covers the walkway also. Runner would be a hazard, No pillows on the puffy couches. I think the corner by the TV for the tree.

Did you happen to see this thread? New rug If you like this look, it comes in some colors that look as if they'd work with your furniture and bring your kitchen wall color into the room.

Maybe one of these?

sasafras - I luv that floor as well and contemplated the rug idea for some time but it some times feels like some thing is missing in there with out the rug.

Olychick - thanks for the link, I do like that look.

anitamo - I'm not a big fan of that peach on the walls, so that will be changed in the near future.

In the meantime I'd been to Home Goods and got this one just to get a sense of the rug being in there. what do you think of the rug and the size? DH thinks that its too big for the space, its 8x10.

And heres one from Overstock that caught my eye and I keep coming back to it over and over but not sure if it fits in our room. What do you think? Might be too much for the room to handle ?

I personally like the one from homegoods. It fits well with your color scheme and I like the size.

I agree. It looks at home in your room, the size also looks perfect. I think the other two you posted will be too much WOW with your other, more sedate furnishings. The contemporary floral I would like under a dining table where it was partially covered and was peeking out around the edges.
