What size of rug for this entry?
Comments (31)I understand... you must like it. I keep looking toward the dining space and it's polar opposite it appears from the space you are placing the rug. Some how I'd like to see the two rooms work together. I found a rug similar to the ones you posted that were very bright and we both felt they said, "look at me"! I found one some what similar, but again don't feel it works well in that style with the dining space which is right there....See Moreentryway rug size?
Comments (7)I like the colors and that pillow (!) that everdebz posted. here's the size I would do, with a large, more proportional light and I'd prob do a console table against that wall where they have the bitty shelf. better looking light. (I actually have this in my hallway) How about this look to go w/the grays/blacks/whites? Cabinet is from target. do a white board/batten all around the 3 walls. rust wood mirror. plant. I like this rug too. right size. Rather than a black or gray bench, go for a natural wood and accessorize w/the blacks/grays/whites You have some great light in the entry which means you can have greenery! Styling the console is everything. Love this paired w/the rug you listed. a bit more traditional. silver/gray rug, white wainscot. I'd also think about doing the shiplap on those 3 walls. Or, a board and batten. (and this soft blush w/the grays/white/charcoal is killer) bring in a mirror, a rustic wood shelf, basket. another shiplap wall. You have a great space there to do a lot of diff design elements. I'll some others in the next comment w/benches....See MoreEntryway rug size and color
Comments (3)Sorry, I didn’t get a notification you’d posted! Are you thinking you’d like more of a door mat size there? Lots of choices that would look good — check out CB2, Crate & Barrel, West Elm, etc if you haven’t already. I know you said not another runner, but I really love this: https://www.westelm.com/products/lcl-tantuvi-terra-hemp-handwoven-runner-d13493/?pkey=call-rugs Another that would be interesting is a Kilim rug. eSaleRugs carries Afghan ones, I bought one for my house and my dad’s house. Each is hand made, no two are exactly alike. https://esalerugs.com/rugs?query=kilim&collections=kilim%20afghan This is similar to mine in my office: https://esalerugs.com/gold-3x4-kilim-afghan-area-rug-22172194?pos=74&rt=aisle They slip, so definitely need rug pads. Hopefully others see this and chime in with more suggestions....See MoreSuggestions on rug size and shape for entryway
Comments (5)If it was my door, I would only have a rectangular rug at the floor near the front door. The rug would be large enough to step into the room and close the door while still standing on the rug. I wouldn’t have a runner up to the length of the console table. I would not like the front legs of the console on the rug and have the table be lopsided....See MoreRelated Professionals
