Why a Royal Blue Rug

Lighter than navy, darker than steel, royal blue is a beautiful shade that is calming and fresh. Royal blue rugs and other accents can make your home feel more harmonious, and they can go with almost any design style. Traditional, modern, Victorian, and Asian decor styles work particularly well with this beautiful shade of blue.

A royal blue rug can work as a striking accent with beige, white, ivory, grey, and even lighter shades of blue. It can also ground spaces decorated with periwinkle, lavender, orange, and yellow. In most cases, royal blue rugs add a sense of peace and calmness to your interiors.

With so much potential, it should come as no surprise that you’ll find royal blue rugs with designs that range from traditional oriental to modern abstract. You’re sure to find something that suits your interior tastes no matter what style your home has.

You Can Use A Royal Blue Area Rug Anywhere

What room couldn’t benefit from a calm and grounding accent? Royal blue rugs can go in any room of your home, from the bedroom to the kitchen, and even the patio. There's space for this beautiful blue everywhere.

Below we’ve highlighted a few popular ways to use royal blue rugs around your space:

Living Room

Royal blue rugs for living room decor help encourage soothing conversation and relaxation. You might pair a royal blue area rug with grey furniture and a wood table to bring the natural and neutral colors to life. If you have a no-shoes rule in your home, you might consider a royal blue shag rug to add texture and lighten the mood.

Bathroom

A royal blue bathroom rug can give your bathroom a coastal appeal, especially beside a white bathtub or shower area. You might consider a pair of striped royal blue mats to go with light blue towels or a fur rug by the tub for luxury.

Patio

A royal blue outdoor rug is the perfect way to bring color to your home’s exterior decor. Royal blue goes well with earthy tones and, as we mentioned above, coastal themes. Your options are endless, especially if you incorporate this color in other accents around the space.

What’s Next?

With so many stunning designs to choose from, it’s hard to go wrong with a royal blue area rug. Just remember to know what you’re looking for in terms of size, material, and thickness to find the perfect fit.

The tips below will help you get clear on what you need before you buy:

• Size: Measure the room carefully and then look at placement guides online to pick the best-sized rug for the space. You want to keep at least a foot of floor space, often more, between the edge of the rug and the walls.
• Material: Consider the amount of moisture, soil, shoe traffic, and sunlight the rug will be exposed to. Choose a material that you can keep clean with your lifestyle.
• Thickness: Thicker rugs do best in low-traffic zones, and thinner rugs tend to be more durable. You also need to measure under doors that swing over the rug to avoid getting one that's too thick and catches.
