VT Home: Finding The Right Rug, Part II

VT Home Rugs how to choose a rug

As I mentioned in my last post on rugs, the right rug can make or break the mood of a room. You can use a rug as a focal point of the room or simply as an additional luxury layer, adding some texture.

We have just begun another exciting new project with VT Home in New York City’s West Village. The client is a successful fashion model and entrepreneur, and the building is new a development in a prewar structure. Her style is somewhat bohemian chic, so I went to The Rug Company to look at their designer series of rugs from amazing fashion designers such as Rodarte, McQueen, DVF, and Paul Smith. Since we are at the very beginning of conceptualizing the apartment, we’ve got a pretty clean slate.

Here are some of my favorite rugs from The Rug Company that will not only inspire our new client, but will also open your eyes to the incredible statement that you can make with the right rug.

If you are into classic luxury, We are obsessed with this chic neutral silk rug from The Rug Company. It's all about texture when it comes to using a single colored rug. It is quite subtle yet very sophisticated.

We have touched on the hugely popular use of gold in interior design. This rug by Kelly Wearstler for The Rug Company has a hint of green in the gold which is quite fresh. Check out our piece on Life In Color - The Golden Rule on our blog for more chic inspiration.
