Rug Trends in 2016 To Use In Your Home Design

The first month of the year has just come to an end, but it doesn’t mean that you should be done with your home styling ideas for 2016. In fact, there’s a whole lot of things that you can do in terms of designing your home this year, based on recommendations from house styling experts.

Here are some of the rug trends for 2016 that you might find useful in making your home several notches higher in terms of interior design:

Mix old and new styles

Old home designs are characterized by legendary, exquisite, and luxurious. Meanwhile, modern styles focus more on functionality and comfort. You can combine the best of both worlds, as long as you know how to mix them up.

In a room, you may use a modern-looking shag rug on a classic hardwood floor. If you have an old rug with some imperfections and worn-out appearance, you can use it under metallic furniture.

Tap into nature’s colors

Nature has always been a good source of design elements to place in your home. The easiest way of incorporating nature into your home design is through colors. Choose rugs with color palettes of brown or beige.

If you’re more adventurous when it comes to style, you can use rugs with bold green colors and floral patterns. You can even accentuate these rugs with house plants in the room.

Use metallic accents

Adding some form of sheen or shine on your rugs is going to be big this year. If you’re conservative in your designs, you may start by weaving metallic threads through the rug. For bolder choices, some rugs in the market have incorporated much more metallic threads than you can ever imagine. Make 2016 a bold declaration of your style choices!
