15 Rug Ideas to Inspire Every Room and Style

December 2, 2020 by Elizabeth Wieck

It should come as no surprise to hear that we’re firm believers in the idea that rugs have the power to transform a room. Whether it’s through color, pattern, or texture, rugs have a way of pulling a space together and making it feel more polished, finished, and warm. We’re always on the hunt for rug ideas and inspiration, so we wanted to share our latest roundup of photos from our amazing community (you!)—along with a shoppable selection of rugs to help you bring the look home.

Cozy, Character-Filled Neutrals

The light! The backsplash! The apron sink! There are so many charming details in @tailormadetudor’s airy kitchen, which feels even homier with a rusty orange Persian rug (shop similar styles here).
