Rug to Match Fireplace and Tile?
I have a 1950's house that has a red brick fireplace and tile around the entry way and the fireplace. The tile is dark navy, dark maroon, and sage. I am having such a hard time finding a rug that doesn't clash with these "louder" elements!
Should I avoid a patterned rug since there's already a lot of pattern here? The entryway is where I'm standing in the photo.
Some limitations:
- Kids, so ivory rugs are off the table (although I love the look).
- I looked at Tumble and Ruggable rugs but couldn't find anything I liked.
- We don't want to paint or whitewash the fireplace.
Considerations:
- I found a solid washable navy rug, but I don't know if it would look too heavy.
- I found a lighter gray silver rug too (see photos)
- The patterned rug may be a contender, but I'm not sure if it's too busy with the tile.
Open to any advice!

You can definitely do a patterned rug with some color.
Do you need a rug? You could just do a colorful kilim ottoman while the kids are young.
Get a real side table, where that folding table is, and add a lamp there.

Paint the door in the photo
Relocate the shelving unit placed next to the fireplace. It detracts from the appearance of the room. If you need a shelving unit right at that location consider a wall mounted unit.
