Choosing the Right Rug for Open Floor Plans
Share
Open-concept living is airy and modern—but without visual anchors, it can feel chaotic. At RUGIN, we help you define your space with the right rug placement and design.
🧭 1. Zone Your Spaces
-
Use different rugs to define the living, dining, or kitchen area
-
Avoid placing rugs that are too similar in adjacent areas
📐 2. Stick to Proportions
-
Rugs should sit comfortably under key furniture pieces
-
In a living room, front legs of sofas and chairs should sit on the rug
🖼️ 3. Coordinate, Don’t Match
-
Choose rugs with complementary tones or textures
-
Mix patterns, but keep one color theme flowing
🧼 4. Prioritize Durability in High Traffic Areas
-
Dining area rugs should be low-pile and easy to clean
-
Choose stain-resistant fabrics for open kitchens or near entrances
💡 RUGIN TIP:
A well-chosen rug not only grounds each space—it also creates a sense of calm and cohesion across the entire floor.
