14 rugs that really tie a room together | News | Architonic

Available in any shape, size, colour and tread, rugs are used to fill in empty space between seating elements or to conversely border other areas – such as dining spaces – encouraging and enclosing the activity within. More than this, however, when soft and deep enough, rugs provide additional furniture to sit, lean, lie, stretch out and relax on; they double up as hardwearing yet washable flooring that stands up to abuse from traffic; and, perhaps, most importantly, they pitch interactive artworks onto the floor, expanding an interior’s decor onto a fifth surface.
