Rug choices for a busy fabric!

5 years ago

Interior decorating is not my forte! Kitchen and living space renos are happening in a month. The half-wall behind the couch is going and a white shaker kitchen with a navy kitchen island and jarrah floorboards throughout the space is being installed.

1. What rug pattern or style would go with such a busy fabric pattern to protect the floor? We also have two matching club chairs in the same fabric. Every rug I look at just seems to clash!

2. With the wall being removed the back of the couch will be visible on entering the space. There will be nothing in between the island and the couch back. Should I place another item of furniture against the back of the couch (thinking long low bench with plants or a church pew type of seating) just to break up the visual?

How much space do you have? Best to post a plan if possible.

Has the lounge got a gold or silver pattern through it. I can't tell from the photo. Can I suggest a plain navy floor rug to match your new kitchen cabinet colour. With navy throws for your lounge. Or even a plain red floor rug. If the colour in lounge is silver, add silver coffee table and accessories. If it is gold then gold accessories. I'm thinking with the different styles of lounge and your new kitchen cabinets, I'm thinking maybe a boho theme added to a plain rug, White also needs to be added to blend with your new kitchen. Since the rooms are close, add silver or gold accessories into your kitchen. Maybe copper colours may also work. But then, If nothing works, throw a big blanket over each lounge and cover the fabric. Even if you just put a blanket over the back of each lounge. Have fun.

hey everyone we have finally moved and we got the sofa bed. It is fantastic. I'm still unpacking boxes and trying to sort through things but I think the layout works as I can enjoy views out to my yard while Hudson plays. Thanks again for your advice and help.

Rug looks good. Don't get rid of your coffee table. Just slightly sand the top and pick an antique white or light grey paint with primer already in it and give it 2 coats. It will come up great. wouldn't take long to do. Add a tray with candles and small artificial plant, *& would look great. Good luck.

WE got rid of our curtains when we repainted, BEST decision ever and now have plantation shutters, they are awesome, look clean, modern yet as we have a Bluestone villa it so doesn't have to be just modern homes, still looks great with the cornices etc will go any where and look great, I liked the Temple and Karari rugs as they won't date then you can add pops of colour such as teal and navy or yellow and navy or really most colours go with the soft blue/navy it would be whatever your taste is in the pop of colour, red or burgundy....choice is endless really, We did have full window shutters.

Hi there. Loving your style! I would go for something a little simpler, but with a focus on texture. Keep it neutral to work with your floors and the creams around. This will cozy it up, plus something like this you can get made to size which is an affordable way to get a decent size rug. Something lovely and simple like some greenery in a short glass vase on that coffee table would complete it beautifully.
