The key to nail in any house decor update is to play with shapes and colours. So, before anything else, you need to take a good look at the place you want to improve and check out what forms and colours are more present and you want to enhance in order to better understand what mid-century modern rugs will better fill your present house decoration.

This said, we selected a few images, to help you get inspired, that we believe make the perfect statement and will bring your room to life.

So, for starters, if you got some paintings in the room, you can play with the colours and put a mid-century modern rug that goes along with the pattern already present, but remember to not over saturate your room, as more pale colours are more likely to give a feeling of calmness and confort, in oposite to more intense colours that bring more life to the room but that feeling of relaxation that we so much appreciate in our houses may get lost.

If you got more of a minimalistic house decor, to step it up a notch you can add contemporary rugs, playing with shapes and colours, as we can see in the image above, as this mid-century modern rug, Polanski rug from Essential Home, brings an element of life to the room.

When you have more of a minimalistic decoration, where the interior design may be more simple and colour neutral, a more plane rug may leave the room dull, so it’s always a good idea to get bold with your rug choices as they may be the turning point to having the coolest house decor in your the neighborhood! Ahah

However, if your house has already a very cool vibe with some colour painted walls and amazing stand out furniture, you can choose a mid-century modern rug with a colour contrast, like the pink from the walls contrasts with the brown from the mid-century rug, that play along like they blong together.

Can you imagine the room pictured in the image above without the rug? Me neither, because it just looks so good and complete!

But, if you are more like me and enjoy a neutral and plane look, not getting too excited about too much colour, with a colour decor pallet from black to white, a gray rug may be the perfect choice for you.

However, always try to bring a new element to the room when decorating, adding a mid-century modern rug that although with a colour that won’t stand out, makes a statment through its forms, as it plays with shapes.

This way, the Hitchcook rug is just a perfect exemple of how to add a mid-century rug that fits the vibe already present in the room, without overexagerating the use of the colour.

Following the same black and white pattern, a great way to make a statement is though a mid-century modern rug with an unusual shape, breaking barriers of what a rug needs to be like, and bringing playfulness to the room.

This modern rug looks amazing everywhere and if you got an chic vibe going on, it will look brilliant in balancing the decor with a more comfort and welcoming atmosphere.

As we may see in the images above, sometimes a round rug may also be an differentiating element to your room.

Playing with shapes may be one of my favourite things when renovating.

These round rugs look amazing under round tables or even under a center table in your living room, but truth being told, they looks amazing everywere, you just need to match the ambience and know what you are trying to create with your colours and format choices.

 

In conclusion, to succeed in decorating with mid-century modern rugs, all you need is attention to the elements already present in the room, as well as the colour and formats, and not be afraid to take a risk, as a mid-century rug may be the turning point between a dull and uninterresting house to an explendid one, with just a few rugs.
