The floor should act as both a decorative feature and the anchor for all of the other elements in the room. Nothing warms up a room like a beautiful rug. A rug provides a visual footprint and acts as a guide to how to use the space within the room. Rugs can also draw people to a seating area or indicate a pathway to another space. A well chosen rug will act as the cohesive element in a space and unify the rooms overall design.
