When you are about to decorate the interiors of your house, many of you prefer installing some rugs and carpets on the floor. One of the most sought-after types of rugs is the abstract rugs that change the room’s entire look. The emergence of area rugs these days are proving their worth. Although the pattern and size of the rugs should be taken under consideration, some of these rules can be avoided if you think of using layering multiple rugs on top of one another.

Given below are some ways which can help you layer rugs aesthetically to make a difference in the house:

Abstract Rug

1. Layering brings the outside in

Think of layering a natural sisal rug on top of a patterned rug. This will give a natural look to the room. This is a clear combination of both the rough and the soft patterns, thereby bringing the outside in. also, it is one of the fun designs that you should try out, especially if you are up for creating some rustic feel inside the room. If you are interested in using this layering on the outside, you can install it on the terrace, stoop, or porches.

2. Layering can be done on any room

It is high time you get rid of the notion that rug layering is suitable only for sitting rooms and bedrooms. Besides, many of you consider installing rugs only if your house possesses hardwood flooring. You can experiment with the rugs by installing them in other places of the house, besides n the bedroom and the sitting room. For example, your kitchen or dining room can also have a rug. Adding rugs to any space imparts a cozy feel to change the entire ambiance of the room, especially during the wintertime.

3. Layering helps you mix color and patterns

If you want to make the room colorful and bright, adding rugs will help. Make sure to add rugs by layering them properly so that the entire space of the room looks unified. If your room already has enough vibrant colors, choose a rug shade that will complement that entire look of the room. If you are up for some patterns, then rug layering is something you should try. Place the largest pattern at the bottom, followed by the smaller ones.

4. Layering involves imperfection

If you find rugs that do not suit the aesthetics of your room or are smaller in size, the perfect way to present them is to layer them appropriately. For example, it may so happen that you like an antique rug because of its color. But it is of a smaller size. So, instead of putting it away, use a sisal rug as the base and then install this smaller one on top of it.

5. Layering means adding texture

If you are a lover of patterns and texture, you will surely love layering rugs. Not only does rug layering add texture to your room, but it also enhances its aesthetics. So, before you install an abstract rug, make sure you check its texture and see that everything looks pleasant when put up.

Conclusion

There are no hard and fast rules of layering rugs. Your friend may not like the texture or pattern in which you arrange a rug. So, feel free to add your aesthetic touch while layering with rugs.
