Choosing a Rug

What size rug do I need?

Before buying a rug online, measure your room and mark out the rug dimensions with masking tape. This helps you visualise how the rug will sit with your furniture and avoid choosing a rug that feels too small, too large or unsuitable once delivered.

What rug material should I choose?

The best rug material depends on the room, your lifestyle and how the rug will be used. Natural fibre rugs, such as wool and jute, offer benefits including natural warmth, texture and heat retention, but they can shed, especially when new. Over-vacuuming natural fibre rugs may also increase shedding.

For busy homes, pets, spills or high-traffic areas, a low-pile synthetic rug may be more practical. Our non-shed, stain-resistant and easy-to-vacuum polypropylene rugs are a low-maintenance option for everyday living.

What colour rug should I choose?

The best rug colour depends on your room, furniture and the feeling you want to create. Neutral rugs are a versatile choice for most Australian homes, while earthy tones can add warmth and depth. Darker rugs can help ground a room, while lighter rugs can make a space feel softer, brighter and more open. For more help choosing between light and dark rug colours, read our guide to whether a rug should be lighter or darker than your couch.

How do I clean and maintain my rug?

Always follow the care instructions provided with your rug. As a general guide, lightly vacuum using suction only to remove loose soil and debris. Clean spills immediately by blotting with an absorbent cloth or paper towel, and avoid rubbing the pile surface. Some stains may be cleaned with mild clear detergent and lukewarm water, but if a stain cannot be removed, seek specialist cleaning advice.

What are the latest trends in rug designs?

Some of the latest trends in rug design include neutral natural fibre rugs, transitional Persian-inspired rugs, contemporary modern rugs, mid-century modern rugs & art deco rugs.

What does no shedding mean?

A no-shedding rug is designed to release little to no fibre during normal use, making it easier to vacuum and maintain. This is different from natural fibre rugs, such as wool or jute, which may shed, especially when new. No-shed rugs are often a practical choice for busy homes, pets, high-traffic areas and customers wanting a lower-maintenance rug.
