When decorating your home with new furniture, it is important not to neglect the floor. You can have couches, wall art and end tables, but only an attention-grabbing contemporary rug will really pull the room together. Shop at Cincinnati’s Bova Contemporary Furniture to find the best and most fashionable rugs for your home.

These contemporary furniture experts know that there are many ways to style a room with a rug. What kind of rug you choose depends on the room and the current furniture. Here are a few tips to keep in mind when styling your home with rugs:

• Size: The rug size should fit the area. A rug that is too large or too small for a space can make the entire room feel off kilter. Ideally, your rug should reach past the center table to the front legs on your sofa, chairs or end tables. If the corners of your rug are flipping up at the walls or if your rug doesn’t reach your furniture, you need to get a different size.
• Style: Unless you want a quirky look to your room, make sure the rug fits the style of the room. A kitchen with rustic furniture shouldn’t have a brightly colored rug in it. Use patterns and colors in the room to match the rug without being too “matchy.”
• Texture: Make sure you like the texture and material of the rug. Depending on the material, some rugs can be difficult to clean, and you need to be willing to put in more effort when cleaning. Also, before making a final decision, you need to consider whether you walk on it daily.

Adding a rug to your home décor is a great way to give it more personality and really pull a room together. It shouldn’t take away from the furniture but should complement it and add flavor.
