A Safavieh red rug can highlight your room’s decor by reinforcing the room’s color palette, setting the tone, and furthering your style. Whenever you add a rug to the room, it shouldn’t take away from the decor; when you focus on your room as a whole, you will naturally choose pieces that complement one another. This will allow each piece to stand out as a part of the grand design.
With so many rug options out there, you may be wondering why a Safavieh red area rug is the right option. Starting off with the brand, you can’t go wrong with a Safavieh rug. Safavieh is a brand that has been around for over 100 years and is synonymous with beautiful, quality rugs. As for why you should go with a red rug, there are plenty of perks behind that color. Red comes in a variety of vibrancies, color palettes, and patterns, so you can truly design your space to fit your personality.
As you begin your search, you may be wondering how to choose a Safavieh red rug that’s perfect for you and your home. One way to find your rug is to consider these key topics.
Position: First, decide where you want to add a rug in the room’s layout. These general guidelines will give you some ideas.
Living Room: To establish your main seating area, center a rug in the middle of the space. Depending on the look you want, you can set the rug in front of the seats, under the front legs, or further beneath the chairs. Otherwise, you can use a smaller Safavieh red rug in another part of the room to establish a separate sitting area.
Dining Room: Dining room rugs are often centered right beneath the table to create a balanced, practical look. If you leave about two-three feet of extra rug on each side, that will give you plenty of room to push the chairs in and out.
Bedroom: Rugs are often used to further accentuate the bed, since that’s a common focal point. If that’s your goal, layer your rug partway under the bed or all the way beneath it. If your bed is off centered in the room and you want to add visual interest to the middle of the room, a large red area rug can do just that.
Kitchen: 2x3 and 3x5 red Safavieh rugs are ideal in front of a kitchen sink, stove, or other spot where you tend to be still. You can also add comfort to those areas with a red runner rug if you want a longer walkway and more style.
Bathroom: Similar sized rugs can be used in the bathroom. 2x3/3x5 rugs can add comfort and style to your tub, shower, or sink(s) while runners can dress up your double vanity or establish a pathway.
Outdoors: Safavieh makes rugs for your outdoor spaces as well, so there’s no need to limit your style to inside the four walls of your home! For layout ideas, refer back to similar indoor spaces.
Size/Shape: Now that you’ve considered the layout, you can decide what shape and size rug you want in that space. Both of these aspects are dependent upon how you layer it with the furniture and the size of the room itself. With both these areas, be sure that the rug fits the room visually in terms of scale and tone.
Pattern: Since this brand has been around a while, they’ve been catering to designs from all times. In fact, they have design families and collections to guide you towards rugs with different patterns and tones. Check out popular collections like mahal, lyndhurt, adirondack, monaco, heritage, and vintage hamadan. At the end of the day, regardless of the collection, your pattern should connect thematically and stylistically to the rest of the furniture and decor.
Color: Not all Safavieh red area rugs come in the same exact color palette. Aside from the shade of red you want to feature, you also need to consider what other colors will appear in the rug’s design. Even neutral tones like grey, tan, black, and white can vary in tone depending on how prominent they are in the design and what other colors they’re paired with. When it comes to choosing your rug’s color palette, look at your existing decor for guidance in choosing similar colors that convey the same tone.
