Here , Chris shares his top three design tips for incorporating a rug into the bedroom :
WEAR IT BIG
Opt for a large rug that will ‘ elevate ’ the bed . In most bedrooms , the bed is always going to be the main focal point and placing a large rug underneath it will enhance this feeling . And don ’ t think this is a trick solely for wooden or tiled bedroom floors – choose a contrasting colour and design to make your carpet pop .
GO BOLD
Many shy from bold colours and patterns in the bedroom , opting for more neutral schemes to create a sense of calm . A rug is a understated way to introduce some colour , pattern , and interest , without dominating the rest of the scheme .
INTO THE ZONE
For bedrooms large enough to have different areas , smaller rugs are a perfect way to zone the room . Whether you want to section off a dressing table , bedroom storage or a seating area , use a rug as a subtle separator . www . therugretailer . co . uk
