Why not throw away a stylish rug? Not only does it anchor all the elements of the room, but if you choose one with a bold pop print, the room will instantly have a new look. Carpets with geometric patterns, in particular, make a splash and often support most decorative themes, from classical to rustic. In addition, geometric patterns in household items and interiors have become an ongoing trend, with new and rediscovered patterns being added every season. There are a variety of options to choose from, including chevron, herringbone, diamond, Aztec, Greek key, and even a new honeycomb.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Chic chevron shape. <\/strong>The furniture in the large living room is held together by a vividly patterned carpet. This hand-woven wool design features a chevron pattern with an interesting zigzag twist on the basic stripes. As part of the d\u00e9cor scheme, the intense reds and whites of the rug were used to bring a bit of drama to the basic calm and pastel palette.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Oversized pattern. <\/strong>What do you see on this rug? a large diamond or a set of triangles? Depending on how you look at it, you will see two geometric shapes that together form a beautiful graphic focal point in this simple yet stylish living room.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Cook with color. <\/strong>You may be preparing a colorful feast of food in your kitchen, but if the space is all white, it may look pretty cool. One way to decorate a spotless kitchen is to use geometric rugs with vivid patterns. This one has an Aztec-style diamond pattern.<\/p>\n

To choose a rug that is suitable for the foot traffic in your kitchen, choose a rug made from hard-wearing plain-weave natural fibers, such as wool. Polyester woven rugs are also a good choice because they are durable and easy to wipe clean.<\/p>\n

Tip: A<\/strong> rubber backing helps to hold the carpet in high-traffic areas.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Retro twist. <\/strong>In a medieval dwelling, with so many wooden elements vying for recognition, the result of an open-plan living area may seem fairly flat. An oversized rug with a strong pattern can change all that by bringing the room together. Choose furniture with simple geometric repetitions and a dark background to complement the many shades of wood in the furniture. In this house, the homeowner brought a graphic black and cream rug to support the medieval furniture she found.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Optical illusions. <\/strong>Until finished with a bright Escher-style print (which almost looks like 3D), this all-white baby room looks more like an operating room than a baby room.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Luxurious look. <\/b>A quality designer rug is an expensive investment, but it usually lasts a lifetime. The best ones are usually made of wool, a material that is hard-wearing but has soft soles. If the fiber is a high-quality fiber, then the carpet will still maintain a good appearance at the end of its useful life.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Turquoise lattice. <\/strong>If the main element of the room is not visually protected by boldly patterned objects, such as carpets, then a pastel color scheme can dangerously become “as boring as beige”. The decorators of this lovely room took inspiration from the interior design of the 30s of the 20th century by adding a beautiful rug with a large lattice pattern. The carpet also introduces the highlight color of turquoise.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Chromatically. <\/strong>If the d\u00e9cor scheme is difficult to categorize, choose a rug that has a timeless appeal or global credibility, such as this colorful Aztec-inspired rug chosen by homeowner, interior designer Heidi Correa for her patio home in Sydney, Australia.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Outdoor fun carpets. <\/strong>Brightly colored, geometrically patterned weatherproof rugs can be used to enhance the party atmosphere in outdoor entertaining areas. If you have a deck or patio area that is large enough, use more than one rug to create a separate dining or relaxation area.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

More is more. <\/strong>A wide hallway can be turned into a reading corner, but it still looks like a passage without carpet. Choose a rug with a striking geometric pattern to give the space a sense of stopping and looking.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Greek keys. <\/strong>Here, again, the turquoise and white carpets give a uniform effect to the pastel-toned rooms. Inspired by the Hollywood Regency style, the beautiful rug used in the owner’s living room at the South Florida resort is designed in a Greek style. In order to avoid visual distractions from the pattern, the decorators opted for a coffee table made of glass.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Herringbone. <\/strong>By adding a rug with a herringbone pattern, you can instantly challenge the static minimalist style and create a buzz as your gaze moves its repetitive arrow shape up and down. This pattern also helps to connect furniture and warm the room, especially when there are tiled or terrazzo floors, as shown in the living room of a house in Melbourne.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Troubled pattern. <\/strong>If you want a monochromatic palette and find it a little too restrained, you can add drama with a rug with a black and white anagram pattern, such as this one from a home in Perth, Western Australia.<\/p>\n

Tip:<\/strong> Geometric patterns are bold and beautiful, but be careful when combining them with other bold patterns on walls or furniture in a room. That’s not to say it can’t be done \u2013 but you may need expert advice.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
