Buying an area rug can be a transformative process for any room. Whenever you are looking for a way to establish a room’s style, one of the best ways to pull everything
together is to use an area rug. Here are some tips that will help you make the right choice and ensure your home offers a stylish and beautiful décor.
1) Go Bold – Go Beautiful
It’s true that neutral tones will always have their place when it comes to choosing area rugs, but for those whose taste is on the wilder side,
going bold on color and pattern can be the pop of personality a room desperately needs. If going big and bold is your jam, don’t miss the opportunity to explore distinctive
art-inspired patterns featuring vibrant colors and unique patterns. Dare to be different...you won’t be disappointed.

2) Natural Materials
It takes an astute homeowner to recognize that cost doesn’t always mean value. Taking the time to consider the materials used in your area rug
plays an important role in your purchasing decision. Selecting a quality area rug - comprised of nature’s best fibers such as wool, sisal, and jute, will provide you with years of
enjoyment. These natural fibers not only enhance the quality of a rug, they add to the ambience of the room, transforming your space into a sanctuary of relaxation and calm.
So, consider selecting natural fibers that are not only gorgeous, but are comprised of some of the most luxurious and durable fibers available.
3) Varying Pile Lengths
No doubt longer pile will conjure up potentially nightmare visuals of shag carpets from the seventies (which should scare everyone).
However, while today’s longer pile rugs may offer up a nod to vintage rugs, the fibers they are made of are easier to care for than their seventies counterparts.
Modern pile lengths can range from short piles to longer, plush heights and everything in-between. If you’re looking for luxury and comfort, these rugs can be a game-changer
for any room.

4) Versatile Neutrals and Earth Tones
Earth tones and neutral hues continue to be the safe haven for buyers looking for “a little something” for their rooms
but desire a more conservative approach to styling. Selecting a more neutral palette affords the buyer the flexibility to create a versatile back drop that can easily adapt
to design changes over time.
5) Performance
Durability must be a consideration for anyone buying an area rug. First, evaluate the foot traffic and function within any space you intend
to place an area rug. Rooms that are seldom used are a great opportunity to showcase rugs that are more susceptible to damage, whereas high traffic areas are candidates for
more durable synthetic rugs. For high use areas you may even want to consider using an “outdoor” or rather “any-where” rug that are made to with-stand the elements. These are
available in a multitude of colors, textures and styles offering fashion as well as function. So, whether it’s a simple runner, an entryway to a bedroom or the center piece
of your living room, Darvin has a rug to suit both your wants and needs.
