Custom Shapes Rug | Affordable Designer Rugs Perth

CUSTOM RUG SHAPES

Choosing the right size of rug depends on your interior design of your room. A rug can be a focal point or accent. It can combine, extend or separate a room. When we think of rug, we usually thing of rectangular area rug. But we hardly considered other shape.

Here at Rug Junction, our designer rugs fit perfectly into your area whether it be square, round, a runner for an entrance and even irregular shaped rugs like ovals, hexagons, organic, free-form shape and rug with scalloped edges for an interesting finish.

The organic shape in a round and oval rug soften up the angles in a room, introducing balance into more powerful aesthetics. Soft curves offer contrast against hard, straight lines, creating a more playful feel. Round rugs help to define entryways and corners of large rooms, adding a space to linger. They also look great under a square or round dining tables.

The most common rug sizes are:-
80*150
120*170
160*230
200*290
240*330
(Length cm x Width cm)
The standard width of runners is 67cm and 80cm

There is no rule for designing a custom rug beyond your imagination. Imagination is the most powerful tool.

Best Rugs For High Traffic Areas | Modern Designer Carpets

Best Rugs For High-Traffic Areas
 
High traffic areas are the places where a high level of foot traffic stay for more time like hallways and entryways. People may often walk or clean their feet on the rug on a regular basis. Our aim is to identify these areas such as the dining room, living rooms where people spend quality time with their family, play with their kids etc. Frequent high pressure of the foot traffic can harm your rug fibers in such specific area more so it is essential for us to understand how a rug will be used within such specific space and choose a rug wisely that will endure wear and tear and extend the durability of the rug.

We at The Rug Junction recommend a low pile height of 10mm or less which will help the rug to be more robust and withstand regular wear over time compared to a rug with a composition of more delicate, softer longer plush fiber.
 
Yarns consisting of natural fiber such as 100% wool, are highly recommended due to its durability and endurance in high traffic well-used areas. Wool fiber is easier to clean and maintain due to its natural composition as compared to other more fibers.

Colour and pattern are also important factors. There is no purpose in buying a long-lasting rug if it is going to be stained by foot traffic. It occurs often when shoes are worn from outside to inside, bringing in dirt particle and transferring marks from shoes' sole onto the rug. Minimizing lighter colors will assist in keeping your rug looking its best ensuring many years of use and enjoyment. Remember that very light and very dark colors can dull your home decor. While a dark colour may good at hiding stains, it will show lint and dust more than other colours. A carpet that is neither too light nor too dark will be the best colour for masking these issues.
