Rug Buying Tips - Colours

People tend to overestimate their sensory perception of colours, when indeed matching colours aren't exactly alluring in a visual sense. Colours seem to blend creating a blend taste of style. Whereas the option of a striking or different colour rug gives a new take on the old, providing colour contrast and depth in the visual spectra. A fine example, would be a room with furniture and curtains of a similar or like colour body, in which adding a rug of similar colour to the picture not only dulls the look but provides no contrast to the existing furniture. A colour contrasted rug would give a breath of new air technically, adding life to the existing palette of the room Audacious you might think but what's life without zest.

Sometimes we are presented with a situation where let's say, we got a blue themed lounge with an earthen flooring. Adding a burgundy rug or one with a splash of blue coupled with burgundy cushions, provides a subtle contrast, while still maintaining the feel of the lounge. It adds character while not colliding with the present theme. This is a good example where picking the right colour not only creates a new dimension but still allows older themes to resonate with equal avocation.

Rooms with dark overtones tend to be claustrophobic in nature. Adding a lighter coloured rug, picks up reflected light, livening up the room and adding space to it. It is a good example where, colour plays a simple but important role in re-vamping the entire look of a room, whilst still zest to appeal. These examples reflect how simple colour changes or additions could create a whole new atmosphere.

Most people love the idea of a warm- coloured setting, to give a cosy and almost dug-out type look. In these cases, darker colours do the job perfectly. Chiefly colours like chocolate brown, burgundy excel in adding the touch of warmth. Ideally great for those cold winter days. You might ask what of lighter colours? Well that's as blue as it can be. They are great in creating a lively fresh jive look. Blue,greens,beige run adjacent to the darker colours bringing an opposite but equally great look to the environment. You could say, having darker coloured rugs for winter and lighter ones for summer are as peachy as ideas could come. Counter-arguments about finding the right colours would definitely ensue but be assured there is definitely a colour that works with your furniture and home. Looking is the hardest part but be patient as every blend of colour creates a completely different look from another. It would be appropriate to say that being colour-wise is half the job done in acquiring a rug and probably the hardest part at that. Colours are as endless as combinations, creating a wide array of possibilities.

The key point here is adhering to the existing backdrop but still adding a tint of freshness that might be missing. Be creative not planar. So let colour guide the way to home - same old brand new.
