The mid-century look uses a lot of geometric shapes and I really like the idea of tying the yellow chair and the grey couch together. Here is a suggestion (8'x10' for $599 free shipping):

Suggestion number two with more yellow same size and price:

Coffee table .... how about a Noguchi style ? If they’re out of your price range there are many less expensive versions online. They’re glass topped. Some are sold on Houzz, the Herman Miller ones are about $2k I believe. Ones on other sites, including Houzz much cheaper in price for same or similar style.

This set of tables would give you a mid-century look without the wood:

I like the existing rug you want to replace. Looks like you may be leaning to something more modern. You could go with a rug that pulls from you artwork like this trellis design with white field.

Here is the blue and yellow rug in a different color. Also I think a cowhide rug would look fabulous, in fact, I like it better than all of them even though I did a horrible job editing that one....., and probably wouldn't cost more than $300-$400

I prefer a darker toned oriental style like Decoenthusiast posted. You can get a less expensive one, just shop around. .

I vote for the blue and yellow one. All of the other ones look like you see them everywhere all the time. I've never seen the blue and yellow one before and it adds a lot of character to your already wonderful room whereas the others all are bland.

Really nice job with your art/tv arrangement. I've scrolled back to admire it twice now.

Have you seen the blue and yellow in person? I'd be concerned about the changing heights of the nap, that it might be a slight trip hazard. It goes from totally flat in some places to long pieces. I also wonder how it would be vacuumed? Do you have any pets who might enjoy playing with the long fibers?

I like the colors in the blue and yellow; a 3rd use of yellow would be ideal I think to support the drapes and chair. I can't stop seeing dog faces in the pattern and yes it might be a bear to vacuum.

I'd say the third use of yellow is already there with the art on the far right. Has anyone seen this rug in person? Is it made up of four pieces attached to the backing?

I would vote for a tribal rather than a shag, and they never go out of style. They're much easier to keep clean, and can even be hosed off outside. These are from esalerugs (they offer free returns). I really like your room and think a livelier color, like terracotta, would serve you well, rather than more yellow. You can pull the color together with pillows for a cohesive scheme.

hand-knotted

polypropylene, more tribal

I agree with Ingrid. Tribal rug would be perfect for your space.

Yayagal - I agree! - that arrow rug is pretty cool!

Jamie Ludwig - thanks for all your great ideas! You can't see the left side of the room (will take another shot tomorrow) but the whole wall is a yellow curtain. I think the yellow rug might be a little too much. I love your idea of the mid century table with hairpin legs. Also on the other side is my glass and wood mid century circular kitchen dining table, otherwise I would totally do that for coffee table but I think it's too redundant.

K Laurence - yes the Noguchi style! love it!

Thank you Ingrid, decoenthusiast and sondramartina! Yes, I do like the Tribal look with the red as well. I've been toying with that color scheme too. Just don't want to it to look too traditional so trying to find a cool one has been hard. But I like the first one sondra martina posted.

my3dogs - excellent point! I had the same thought, looks like a tripping hazard on that rug!! I should look for some reviews.

lisaam! omg. The dog faces! lol. THAT's what i've been seeing. I bet you wouldn't notice as much when it's flat.

You might find a Kazak-like rug over at https://esalerugs.com/search-a2F6YWs=-8x11-rugs  Other posters have commented on getting extra discounts there.

janetmm59 - you've created a monster! That rugsusa.com feature is addicting. I have a new hobby.

I think the first rug with the diamond outlines is safest one and it will brighten up the room.

Make that two monsters! It is addicting and sometimes surprising. I only wish I could tryout all the rugz.

I know you want to replace but I love your current rug! It compliments the warmer tones of you room and goes great with your art work. I love your room!!!

If you choose oriental rug with geometric pattern it will not look traditional.

Wow, that is stunning.

First give your existing rug a quarter turn and see if that doesn't improve the appearance in the room. This will help you decide what size rug you require.

The two leather chairs should be placed at right angles to the sofa and positioned so the three items form an "L".

Follow up: I did a vote on another thread and ordered this! Eeek!! yay!!

Yes! That's a perfect choice!

Well...since you've got the rug situation squared away :) mind sharing the artist(s) of the far left bottom painting and the far right? Love your gallery arrangement.

Love it! I love your room. Hope you will keep us updated with pics!

BTW, where did you find that lovely rug?

I don't see a problem with the TV being visible. I guess it is not going to be a big boxy old style tv so why bother hiding it?

BTW I love you rug!

sondramartin, even new, nicer TV is still a big black hole. And unfortunately, it will detract from the overall look of that fabulous gallery wall. I was just wondering if there was a way to lessen the impact.

Samsung has The Frame TV. It has Art Mode.

A tv is a a tv. It will look great in the middle of your lovely art work. No sense hiding it, in my opinion.

This is my attempt at an art wall and I think yours looks incredible. I also love the credenza!

Love the new rug, and for heaven's sake, just hang the TV and enjoy watching it! It is a nod to the notion that real people live in this room, which I find healthy and refreshing. I love how you have made this space your own with smart decor choices and a welcoming, relaxed vibe. And yes, your new rug IS to die for!!!!

I don't mind the tv being visible. It will be a nice new and thin flat screen. Thanks for all of the compliments! aktillery9 - love your art wall too. Great room!! Love the wood beams!!

Now I am wondering about the coffee table!? haha. Too small or ok!?

Too small. And kinda too white

But the rug looks fantastic!

I think a glass topped table could be perfect

Too small, and too white.

Rug looks stellar! Table is too small. I kind of like the white, but it is a bit jarring. Maybe a slightly more tinted marble top table?

My first inclination is a wood table, but it'd be hard to match your media console. A live edge or wood slice table might work.

I agree, the off-white is better. That or a glass noguchi or wood kidney shape. I posted a new thread about the coffee table and there have been some similar suggestions there! Thank you all again for being so helpful!!
