One sure way to elevate a room in no time at all is with a characterful wool area rug like this one: The linework has an eye-catching motif that anchors the space in a pattern, but with a neutral palette that’s easy to work with. We love how the blue and ivory geometric pattern makes for a great contrast against dark farmhouse floors in a traditional living room or coastal cottage dining room, and the subtly distressed finish gives it that lived-in charm of a reclaimed, flea-market find. Picture it in a neutrals-filled office or let its personality shine through in a traditional Southern living room. Something to consider: Though this rug’s pile provides plenty of padding underfoot, we recommend you pair this piece with a rug pad to help it stay put. When it comes to upkeep, regular vacuuming is recommended, but please avoid using a beater bar or rotating brush. When it’s ready for deep cleaning, just leave it to the professionals.
