Round rugs: Dynamism and fluidity in interior design

Round rugs represent a conscious break from the traditional orthogonal geometry of homes. Their circular shape introduces movement and visual softness, making them the perfect solution for balancing rooms dominated by rectangular or square furniture. In interior design, they are strategically used to highlight specific areas—such as a reading nook or a round dining table—or to create the illusion of more space in small rooms by not defining corners. Our collection explores organic textures like hand-woven jute and the softness of cotton, offering pieces that not only decorate but also enhance the acoustics and warmth of your home.

Advantages of the circular shape

  • It softens the space: It eliminates visual edges, creating a sense of fluidity and continuity on the floor.
  • Focusing: It acts as a natural "spotlight", drawing attention to the element placed on it (e.g., a designer armchair).
  • Versatility in irregular spaces: Since it has no corners, it adapts better to rooms with odd shapes or columns, where a rectangular rug would not fit.
  • Visual connection: Helps unify furniture scattered across open floors, creating welcoming islands of coexistence.

Tips for choosing the correct diameter

For a dining room, the rug should be at least 60-70 cm larger than the table on all sides so the chairs don't get caught when moving them. In the living room, if you place it under the coffee table, make sure it's large enough to visually connect with the sofas, or use it off-center to create a reading nook next to an armchair and a floor lamp. In the bedroom, a round rug placed partially under the bed in a corner can add a very modern, asymmetrical touch.

Frequently asked questions about round rugs

  • Do the edges of round rugs lift up?

    This can happen if they don't have a non-slip base. We recommend using a non-slip mesh underneath to keep it flat and secure.

  • How do I vacuum a round jute rug?

    Gently vacuum in several directions to remove dust trapped between the braided fibers, avoiding the use of aggressive rotating brushes.

  • Do they go well with square furniture?

    Yes, the contrast between the square table and the round rug is very visually appealing and helps to break the geometric monotony.

  • What maintenance do cotton ones require?

    Most can be machine washed in cold water, but always check the label. Avoid using a dryer to prevent shrinkage or warping.
