Three Stylistic Benefits of Area Rugs

Even if your area rug is positioned underneath a piece of furniture, such as a sofa or dining room table, it contributes more to the overall aesthetic of a room than you may think. When an area rug is placed on a hardwood floor, it provides protection as well as comfort. The right rug can even increase the lifespan of your floor. However, an area rug does not just offer practical benefits – it can serve as a subtle, yet essential focal point to a room’s décor.

Creates interest
While hardwood flooring is beautiful and long-lasting, covering a center portion of it with a rug is bound to add interest. Try choosing a rug with a statement color or pattern, as it will be complemented by the neutral or brown tone of the floor.

Creates a central focal point

Placing a handcrafted rug in the center of a room (or in the center of a furniture arrangement) will allow the eye to instinctively pinpoint it as the centerpiece of your space.

Adds a conduit of dolor

When searching for the perfect geometric pattern area rug, homeowners who shop with Handcraft Rugs are guaranteed to find the perfect conduit of color to add to their rooms. A handcrafted rug can absorb or reflect the overall color scheme of the room, thus complementing the décor as a whole.
