A rug is a functional element of decor that can transform a room, adding coziness and warmth to it. Its significance in interior design is sometimes underestimated. A rug divides space, adds color and texture, and also serves as excellent sound insulation. It allows you to change the room energy easily without major investments.

Designer Naika Andre from NJA Interiors strongly advises choosing a rug of the right size: “Large rugs can provide a wonderful foundation for a room, while small rugs can create a sense of incompleteness.” Ideally, a rug should be large enough for the front legs of the furniture to rest on it. Designer Jill Romine adds that rugs that are too small can ruin the space, so she doesn’t skimp on rug size.
