5x7 Black And White Rugs

Why A Black And White Area Rug 5x7?

Want to add interesting shapes and textures to your space? Do it with a black and white rug 5x7 in a pattern or design on it that you love.

When a professional decorator uses an item like the black and white area rug 5x7, it's a chance to use the interplay between two popular colors. Black and white are neutral colors that many decorators use in every room they design. They help ground and anchor your furniture so that the place has a more unified look.

If you’re still not sure how you’d like to use your black and white rug 5x7, never fear. We’ve highlighted a few of our top design ideas below for your inspiration:

• You can use 5x8 black and white area rugs in spaces that need more coverage than a 5x7 option offers. Look online at placement charts and measure your space carefully to pick between the sizes. When in doubt, test them both on the floor in masking tape to visually compare.
• To protect your kitchen or entryway floor from heavy traffic, try a black and white outdoor rug 5x7. Outdoor materials are more resistant to dirt and moisture, and they’re easier to clean at home. Many can be tossed in the washing machine regularly.
• Make a room appear either wider or longer with a black and white striped rug 5x7. The direction that the lines run will indicate which dimension will be visually expanded. This trick is good for narrow, short, or claustrophobic spaces.
• Add some personality to your space with different patterns including plaid, floral or even polka dot.
