Although square and rectangular styles are the most commonly seen area rugs, there are many instances when the best choice is a round rug. At Macy’s, we have round area rugs in every style, size, pattern and color, so let’s talk about how to choose the best circular rug for your home. Plus, we’ll give you some pointers on how to make them pop.
Cohesive Circles
Curvy furniture or circular objects naturally fit into a round rug motif. Showcase your round dining room table by placing a round rug with a bold sunburst pattern underneath. If a minimalist theme is more your style, choose a simple solid rug in a neutral hue that complements your curtains and drapes.
Like round tables, home decor like spherical light pendants and oval mirrors look great with round rugs, too. Just line them up with your rug for a fluid and cohesive look.
Lovely Layers
Layers always look good. Just throw a playful circular rug over a solid shag carpet and you’ll instantly see your space come to life. For example, a carpeted nursery room looks great with a woven round rug right in front of the crib or changing table. For these high-traffic areas, invest in round washable rugs you can easily keep clean.
Small Spaces
Sometimes a well-appointed round rug can make a small room appear larger. This works particularly well in apartments and condos with a smaller common area. Use round living room rugs that coordinate with your couches and sofas to draw the eye and create visual interest while distracting from the overall size of the room.
