Classic Colour Coordinating 

To create a cohesive and balanced look, style your statement rug by coordinating its colours with the rest of the room. Echo shades from the rug in other decor elements, such as cushions, throws, or artwork, to create cohesion. For example, if your rug features pinks and blues, introduce these hues subtly through accessories and upholstery. This thoughtful colour coordination enhances the rug’s impact while ensuring the space feels thoughtfully styled and beautifully connected.

More Is More With Maximalism 

If you love bold colours, eclectic patterns, and a playful mix of textures, the “more is more” approach of maximalism is perfect for styling statement rugs. Don’t be afraid to layer vibrant rugs with bold furniture and eye-catching accessories. The key is to embrace contrast and excess while maintaining a sense of harmony. Mix patterns of different scales, play with rich colour palettes and let your personality shine through. In maximalism, there are no rules – just creativity.

A Pop of Colour in Neutral Decor

If you prefer a more understated look but still want to make an impact, let a bright statement rug take centre stage in a room with neutral decor. Keep the walls, furniture, and accessories in soft, muted tones to allow the rug’s vibrant colours and bold patterns to shine as it draws the eye and adds personality without overwhelming the space. This approach creates a beautifully balanced room that feels both sophisticated and lively, letting the rug do all the talking.

Don’t Be Afraid to Pattern Mix and Clash

Don’t be afraid to mix and clash patterns when styling statement rugs. It’s all about confidence and having fun with your space. Start by pairing patterns with different scales – a large, bold rug with smaller, detailed prints on cushions or throws. Keeping a consistent colour palette ties everything together, even if the patterns are different. Remember, clashing doesn’t mean chaotic; it’s about creating an eclectic, layered look that feels intentional and personal.

Explore Rug Layering

Layering rugs is a brilliant way to add depth, texture, and character to your space. Start with a large, neutral base rug to ground the room, then layer a smaller statement rug on top for contrast and visual interest. Play with different textures – such as wool rugs, shaggy rugs, jute rugs, and more – to create a cosy, inviting look. This approach lets you experiment with bold designs without overwhelming the room. Find out more about the art of layering rugs.

Go All in With Colour Drenching

Colour drenching is an interior design technique where a single bold colour is used across multiple surfaces in a room – walls, ceiling, skirting boards, and even furniture – creating an immersive, cohesive look. In a colour-drenched room, a contrasting statement rug can bring balance and visual excitement. Choose a rug in a bold, complementary colour to create dynamic contrast, or opt for a pattern that incorporates shades from the existing palette to tie everything together. This approach keeps the room feeling cohesive while adding a striking focal point.

Use Your Rug as an Art Piece

Art doesn’t have to be in a frame. Choosing a statement rug that doubles as a piece of art is a bold way to elevate your space. Whether it’s an intricate pattern, a vibrant abstract design, or a handcrafted masterpiece, these rugs deserve to take centre stage. Lay them on the floor to anchor the room or hang them on the wall as a textured art piece.
