Square Rugs

More about Square Rugs

One awesome way to use square rugs is to create petite nooks, cozy little spots in the midst of your room. Since rugs are great at shaping our perceptions of space a smaller square rug tucked in a corner by a super comfy armchair or near a bay window surrounded by charming ceramics and house plants will create the feel of a separate area bringing variety and a bit of breathing room to any space. Amazing how something as simple as a rug can open up new possibilities in your room: suddenly you have a mini den to curl up with a book in, or a gorgeous window seat to look out at the world and indulge in your creative passions. It’s extra helpful if you use a lighter colour rug, say something in a pale seafoam or salmon, which will let the space breathe even more.

Of course, square rugs will also look great in any room that already has square-like dimensions, frequently places like your bathroom or kitchen. For these spaces, try to get a square rug that fills the space, meaning it touches all the design elements in the room. For the kitchen this might mean the rug approaches both the sink and the island. Just remember to get something that’s washable as both these areas are high traffic and spill prone. Want to be extra chic? Match your dish or bath towels with the shades of the rug for pro level colour coordination.
