Home Decorating Flooring living room

Please help find a rug that would work in this room.

Just moved to a new house without carpet and need a rug for this room. Ignore pictures leaning against the wall as we have just moved in and haven't finished decorating. Off to the right in this picture is a gold upholstered chair that matches the gold accents in the couch.

What color rug would look best in this room and pull it altogether and make the room more cozy? I'm guessing with the plaid couch that I need a solid color. I have no design sense whatsoever so appreciate all the help.

Thank you to everyone that took time to respond, especially at this busy time of year, and Happy New Year to you. I have decided not to get it, and to look for something more traditional. I agree it would have looked nice with an aqua blue pottery bowl, but then I feel I would be moving more towards a south western or globally influenced look, and would have to switch out too many other things. Thanks for helping me decide.

The first rug is ivory beigh shades and the rug with squares are ivory and gray. So I think the first one one would be a better match. I’ve searched online a lot but didn’t see something simple that I liked. But if you see anything nice I would love to take a look. I’m planning on ordering the rug tomorrow.

Alex, I found that rug at Plush Rugs and also at Overstock. You might have to do a search to find it in Canada. https://plushrugs.com/safavieh/bristol/btl355m/#blue-multi

Freedomplace1-love how you can put the rug in the room! I didn't like the last one, I thought I'd like a more blue rug, but after seeing it in the room, I don't think I like a mainly blue. I'm going to look for a rug w/ more natural neutral colors, some blue, something that is rich in color but maybe w/ the lighter color....if any of that makes sense :) The 1st, 2nd & 3rd ones are my faves along w/ the last one Jinx posted.

You can do a pattern ... but you have to get the colors and scale right.

But for me the real question would be ... do you want to be making design decisions based on a fabric pattern/color from 1980 - 1990 ?

Fine if you do, but I've regretted the times I built a design plan around something I should have changed from the start!

I've thought about replacing the couch but my entire house is in the same color scheme much like the picture above (red, green, maroon, gold) including a green sectional in my family room I purchased just a couple of years ago. If I were to purchase a new couch today, I would still purchase one in that same color family. I'm not a fan of the current trend of white or grey couches. Plus, that couch is comfortable and in very good condition. Despite the colors, it's not that old. Definitely something to consider though.
