rugs in an open floor. plan

5 years ago

I have a kitchen, living and dining area open plan. Can you advise on the use of rugs? Use one sisal in living and a non sisal in adjacent dining? Or similar textures?

I dislike sisal rugs but IMO the rugs need some connection to each other Pictures of your space with furniture would be very helpful.

Before you buy another rug, try the dining room rug in the in the great room. It is too short for the table and chairs. There should be enough rug for the host/hostess chairs to be pulled back and stay on the rug. It is made more noticeable because that rug does have a border, as well. If the rug is too small for the great room, consider layering it over something like a sisal or jute. And, yes, having furniture run diagonally across the field of the rug wouldn’t work.
