You don’t need to go on a safari to see some striking animal patterns every day. Animal print rugs add a touch of nature and wildlife to your bedroom or lounge.

Faux fur floor rugs

Fur has been used for centuries, but now, high-quality faux fur offers an animal-friendly alternative. They’re just as fluffy, soft, and cosy bringing tremendous warmth to a space.

Geometric floor rugs

Modern designer floor rugs feature all sorts of interesting shapes and styles and geometric patterns are great for adding contrast and juxtaposition to your living or dining room. An increasingly popular choice in Australia.

Jute rugs

Jute rugs are eco-friendly products made from the fibres of the jute plant. They are known for their natural, rustic appearance, earthy warmth and their durable, yet soft texture.

Wool rugs

Wool rugs are crafted from the natural fibres of sheep and are renowned for their softness, durability, and ability to retain vibrant dye colours. They are a great option for a high-traffic area and are inherently flame-resistant and resilient to dirt and moisture.

The advantages of high-quality floor rugs

Floor rugs are usually placed in the middle of a room as a statement piece in a home which makes them a highly visible feature. Focusing on a quality product is therefore a must if you wish to truly add value to your home. They are likely to be manufactured to high standards, feel softer, and resist the usual wear and tear of foot traffic compared to low-quality options. Designer rugs are also more likely to be more interesting and pleasing to the eye, crucial for the visual appeal of your interior styling.

How to choose floor rugs that are right for you

When choosing the perfect rug in Australia it’s important to make sure that it fits comfortably in the room. It sounds obvious but rug sizes are crucial as something too small or too large will make a room look unbalanced. Next, consider its look by taking inspiration from current trends or by focusing on rug styles and colours that complement your existing home decor. You might want a patterned rug or wish to add a touch of luxury with faux fur. Some also like to coordinate their floor rugs with the hallway runners and doormats they’ve already chosen. There’s a huge range to choose from and only a holistic approach will help you find the perfect rug for you. A round floor rug can set out a smaller seating area, while garage floor rugs need backing and construction suited to heavier use.

How long do floor rugs last?

This will depend on the quality of the rug and how often it’s cleaned and maintained. Generally, an average rug can last between five and seven years in Australia, although a high-quality floor rug can last up to ten years.

How do you keep a rug in good condition?

It’s always recommended to keep outside shoes off rugs as this can introduce a lot of dirt and grime to the rug materials. It’s good to do a deep clean once in a while with a steamer and vacuum cleaner. Some rugs are also machine washable, so they can be cleaned in the washer. If there are spills or stains, quickly add a stain remover.

Should rugs match your existing flooring?

No, there’s no official rule about rugs having to match flooring, although if you prefer your room to look more cohesive, this can be a good approach.

Can you put rugs on carpeted floors?

Yes, you can. While most people like using floor rugs on wood or concrete floors, rugs on carpeted floors can add a cosy touch to any room.

How often should you change floor rugs?

As mentioned above, a rug generally lasts between five and seven years with proper care. If you feel that your rug is past its better days, it may be time to change it up for a new one. This could be frayed edges, splotches and stains, or discolouration.
