When adding finishing touches to a room, we often look to the walls. However, you can make a substantial impression by looking to your floors first. Unroll an area rug, and you can unfold an entirely new feel in your room. A timeless addition. A touch of glamour. A modern take. A cozy touch. Area rugs can do all this and more. Shop Gabberts power-loomed area rugs for the statement piece your home needs. Alternatively, focus on texture and light colors for a whispered accent that will meld seamlessly with your current décor.
Consider the size of your room, as well as your furniture when selecting the ideal power-loomed rug for your home. In your living room, either two legs of your sofa and other seating should rest on the sofa, or four legs of all pieces. Consistency is key! Moving into the dining room, it’s important to measure your table and choose a rug that allows enough room for chairs to be pulled out as your family and guests are seated. In the bedroom, your rug of choice should frame your bed. This generally correlates to at least an 8x10 foot rug for a queen bed and sizes up to a 9x12 foot rug for a king bed.
The shape of the area rug can also impact the look and feel of your room. While rectangular area rugs are by far the most common, a round area rug can look idyllic under a round dining table, or layered over a rectangular rug in a living space. Long runner rugs may be the best fit for your foyer and hallways, while small accent rugs can be used to highlight favorite furnishings in your living room, den or home office.
Machine made area rugs are created using a variety of natural and synthetic materials and offer different performance levels and care. Choose a high-quality power-loomed area rug to bring the updated look of choice into your room, and the quality you can rely on, footstep after footstep.
