Modern/Contemporary carpets
Colourful eye-catchers

In a modern interior, calm is the code word: clean lines, open spaces, minimalist furniture. Consider neutral tones and clear shapes. There is no room for frills, but rather big pieces that steal the show.
Contemporary rugs are often a statement piece in these types of interiors. They soften the sleekness and add colour, character and warmth. Sometimes uni-coloured and calm, but mostly more daring or artistic. Also check out the industrial and Scandinavian categories if a modern look is your preference.

A modern rug can liven up any space, from large open areas to small spaces, whether you have a minimalist or heavily decorated home.

HOW TO TAKE CARE OF AND CLEAN YOUR MODERN RUG

  • You should vacuum your modern rug as often as you vacuum your wall-to-wall carpet.
  • Using the rug setting on your vacuum will stop the rollers from spinning and only use suction.
  • To remove loose hair from a bathroom rug or pet hair from an area rug, brush it in the same direction as its nap before vacuuming.
  • To prevent traffic and sunlight wear and fading on your area rugs, rotate them a few times a year.
  • To remove dirt and grime, give smaller rugs a good shake outside.

What To Look For In A Modern Rug

  • A favorite modern rug can be the basis for the entire design of a room.
  • Keep other large elements like furniture neutral if you choose a brightly colored rug.
  • Do you want to add a rug to a large space? The least overwhelming color is blue or green.
  • A modern rug is ideal for households with pets and small children because it hides dirt and stains exceptionally well.
  • Creating a monochromatic room around your rug is a great way to show off your bold style.
