There’s a 'best’ rug for your home—here’s how to choose.
Even if you have a wall-to-wall or fitted carpet, you can still transform your space with a few strategically placed area rugs.
“It works when it brings some color, pattern or texture to large swaths of neutral carpet,” says Scheer. Layering carpet only works if the top rugs don’t move. “It's all about the rug pad—regular rug pads will not cut it,” says Bormes. “Nothing's worse than a carpet or kilim that's constantly creeping, and impossible to vacuum.” She advises finding a rug pad made with a water-soluble adhesive to hold the carpet in place.If you’ve got kids, pets, or just have a high-traffic home, both Scheer and Bormes highly recommend 100% wool rugs.
“Outdoor rugs are great solution for households with kids and dogs,” says Scheer. “ They basically absorb nothing and can be bleached, hosed down, and otherwise abused—and still look great!” For those with pets, you’ll also want to consider the color of your fur-baby and how detectable it is, and how much they shed. Low-pile and flatweave rugs will be easiest for hair removal.
