A blue southwestern area rug can highlight your room’s decor by fitting into an existing color scheme, furthering the room’s style, and setting the proper tone. When designing a room, it’s essential that all the pieces work together, including the rug and decor. Designing with that in mind will allow you to naturally highlight each piece of decor, furniture, and rug as essential parts of the room’s overarching design.
Although “southwestern” is in the title, blue southwestern area rugs aren’t limited to purely southwestern homes. These rugs tend to feature tribal patterns, geometric shapes, and a desert color palette that is rising in popularity. As you shop for that perfect rug, rest assured that southwestern area rugs are versatile and expansive enough that you can find one that flawlessly suits your aesthetic.
Before you get too far into the shopping process, it is important to consider a few key facets of the rug.
Position: The first step of the process is to decide on your room’s layout and where you’d like to place your blue southwestern rug. While each room is unique, these general guidelines will serve as good starting points.
Living Room: Large southwestern area rugs are often used to define the living room’s main seating area. In these cases, you can set the rug in front of the seats, under their front legs, or further beneath them.
Dining Room: When you add a blue southwestern rug to your dining room, the shape should mimic the table’s shape and extend past the table so the chairs are always on the rug. One to two feet of extra rug on each side and end is the recommendation to provide that space and serve as a beautiful accent.
Bedroom: If your bed is the main focal point of the room, you can further accent it by layering a rug beneath the bed. The most popular placements are to set the rug fully under the bed or under the bottom two-thirds of it. If your bed is off to one side of the room, you can still set a rug in the middle of the room to act as a focal point and connect the whole room.
Kitchen: Kitchens thrive with blue southwestern rugs, especially in front of sinks and stoves. Small 2x3 and 3x5 rugs are ideal for those situations, but blue southwestern runner rugs are a popular alternative to add comfort and style to those spaces.
Bathroom: Bathrooms also use small rugs in front of sinks, but they’re also great for accenting tubs and showers. If you have a double vanity, consider using two small southwestern rugs or one runner rug to decorate that space.
Outdoors: Finally, blue southwestern outdoor rugs are ideal for patios, porches, or any other outdoor space. Refer back to similar indoor spaces for layout ideas.
Size/Shape: After you finalize the room’s layout and where the rug will rest, you can choose the size and shape of your rug. When you decide on these factors, consider the size of the room, how much the rug and furniture will overlap, and what shape best fits the room’s tone. Some small sizes were recommended above, but other popular options include 6x9, 8x10, and 9x12.
Pattern: Within blue southwestern area rugs, there are still a variety of patterns and designs to choose from. Geometric shapes will likely be at the forefront of the rug’s design, but those shapes can be very different in both presentation and size. For guidance in choosing a pattern, look at your existing decor for any imagery, shapes, or motifs that can tie back to the rug’s design. This is a simple yet classy way to create a cohesive room.
Color: Although you’ve narrowed your search to blue southwestern rugs, there is still a lot to consider with color. Blue comes in various shades and tones ranging from vibrant jewel blue to light blue or another variation like blue green. Popular color palettes for these rugs include blue and white, blue and green, blue and orange, and other southwestern color schemes. Ultimately, your rug’s colors should tie back into the room’s overarching color scheme and convey the same tone.
Can Blue Southwestern rugs be used in modern decor?
Yes, Blue Southwestern rugs can be used in modern decor to add a unique and eclectic touch. The combination of traditional Southwestern design elements with a modern blue color scheme creates a contemporary and stylish look. Blue Southwestern rugs can be used in a variety of spaces, such as living rooms, bedrooms, and home offices.
Can Blue Southwestern rugs be used outdoors?
Blue Southwestern rugs made of synthetic materials such as polypropylene or polyester can be used outdoors as they are resistant to water and fading. However, Blue Southwestern rugs made of natural materials such as wool or cotton should not be used outdoors. Always check care instructions for your rug.
How do I incorporate a Blue Southwestern rug into my decor?
A Blue Southwestern rug can be a statement piece in a room or used as a complementary element to other decor items. To incorporate a Blue Southwestern rug into your decor, consider the overall color scheme of your room and choose accents that coordinate with the blue tones in the rug. For example, you can add throw pillows, curtains, or wall art that feature complementary blue hues. Additionally, you can choose furniture pieces with a rustic or natural look to complement the Southwestern design elements of the rug.
