Introducing: The Rugs USA 2023 Trend Report!

January 13, 2023 by Elizabeth Wieck

It’s a new year! And with it, so many beautiful, fresh home decor trends to incorporate into your space. While we know home trends are not the same as those in fashion—and that it’s not realistic to switch your home up every time a new trend comes around—there are small ways to incorporate these 2023 home decor trends in your space. And our avenue of choice is through rolling out a new rug!

There’s a trend for every taste in this roundup, whether you’re wanting to incorporate some bright color or a plush new texture. Keep reading to learn how to rock the latest rug trends in 2023!

Interesting Textures

We’ll never tire of rugs in cozy, dreamy textures—and we can’t wait to see more of them in 2023. Take cues from furniture and other designs with interesting textures—think bouclé upholstery, sherpa accents, luxe velvet—and bring that sensibility to your floors with rugs with high-low piles, chunky tassels, mixed materials, and other elevating embellishments. 

Our top picks: Maren Hazy Swirls rug, Hand Woven Jute with Wool Fringe rug, Super Soft Luxury Shag with Carved Trellis rug, and Cowhide Herringbone rug.

Bright Pops of Color

After all-white and neutral looks leading the way for so long, color is finally coming back in a big way. And while we’ll always have a place in our heart for minimalism and spare palettes, we’re so excited to see splashy shades make a comeback. The easiest way to try out this trend? By rolling out a colorful rug! With its large surface area, a rug is the perfect way to incorporate tons of color—and with only one piece! 

Our top picks: the Vibrant Meadow rug in multi, Wool Geometric rug in multi, Davina Classic Washable rug, and Persian Vintage rug in blue.

Tradition Made New

There’s nothing like the tradition and intricate design of a vintage-inspired rug, and we expect to see designs with a more traditional approach everywhere—but with a fresh twist. That means classic styles in pared-back, muted shades, age-old motifs with a modern spin, and more. 

Our top picks: the Ring Around the Rosette rug, Native Collage rug, Brenda Hazy Heraldry Washable rug, and Fringed Medallion rug.

A Focus on Practicality 

Let’s be honest: life is messy. And it’s especially messy if you live in a home with kids and pets running around all over the place. Which is why we expect easy-care, washable rugs to continue their rise in popularity from the past few years. We’ve developed a TON of different washable rugs to suit a range of tastes and lifestyles, from super-soft and plush wool washable rugs to stain-resistant washable rugs when you need even more protection.

Sticking with Sustainability

Now more than ever, environmentally friendly designs can be found across all areas of the home. And we’re proud to put our best pro-planet foot forward with a selection of sustainable styles made from recyclable materials and natural fibers like jute and sisal.

Rugs as Art

Sure, art is great on the walls. But did you know art can also be found on the floors—as rugs? This year, expect to see more and more rugs with motifs that mimic what you’ll fine in a well-curated gallery wall. Think ethereal abstract patterns, super-modern geometric shapes, and more frame-worthy, make-you-look designs. 

Our top picks: the Abstract Nebula rug, Mod Trellis rug, Carved Polka Dot Shag rug, and Rhea Modern Abstract rug.

So Many Stripes

Stripes have always been a thing, and in 2023 we’ll see them become even bigger. Whether it’s a classic cabana stripe, a more abstract geometric take, or stripes interspersed within another design, this is the style you’ll want to pick when you want to add a timeless touch of pattern.
