what rug pattern would go best?

2 years ago

I’m looking for a 8x11 area rug. I currently have a neutral indoor outdoor rug, but it has caused my cowhide not to lay flat because of the indoor/outdoor
Material.
8x11 or even 8x12 is hard to find. If I use a 9 x 12 it interferes with my walkway and furniture layout.

I’m looking for help in what pattern & color would look best. I use the cowhide to help protect the area as it is high traffic and the current rug is off-white, which makes it even more hard to keep clean.

I’ve also looked at colors in taupe but ordering online can be tricky as they can have a pink undertone.

Sisal doesn’t seem as cozy in my opinion but maybe
What I need?

I love the blue in the chair fabric.

I've heard order a rug in the smallest size...easier to return. Then if you like it order the big one.

It’s an odd shade close to a sage or olive green. I have a good bit of the green shades. My sofa & love seat are off white.

I was trying to find a light shade of taupe. But thought someone might have more experience in putting patterns together even, I don’t want things to look too busy.

Perhaps if you layer rugs you can end up with the size you want.

Isn't there a way to avoid the rug being in a high traffic area? It looks like there is some bare floor to use as a passage around the rug and seating.

I think a sagey green in your colors and in a geometric is something that would work.
