How do I pick the right size carpet for my living room?
This is a question we hear all the time. You’ve probably tried to figure out how large a rug you should consider, I know I did the first time I started looking at rugs for my home.
Hand-knotted rugs come in quite a variety of sizes and so it can be daunting to know exactly what size rug to choose for the different rooms in our home. Let’s talk about living rooms to get us started. Future posts will look into kitchens, dining rooms and bedrooms.
We had the opportunity to stage rugs in a Landmark Custom Home. Take a look at the different types and sizes of rugs that we used in the same living room to show you the many varied options you have when selecting a rug for your living room.

What to choose? Intricate patterns or simple lines?
Imagine this scenario: You come into the Rug Room looking for a plain colored rug. Why?
Well, your couch has a pattern, your love seat has a slightly different pattern, the armchair is in a contrasting color and the wallpaper and curtains all bring their own unique challenges to the design table. Too many patterns you think. The only solution to this seems to be a plain colored rug with as little pattern as possible.
In the Rug Room we see this scenario many times and help our customers combine the patterns in their home with a Bunyaad rug that also offers a variety of colors and patterns. Let us show you how.
