How To Buy Rugs Online in Australia

Before buying a rug online, measure your space with a tape measure and use masking tape or sheets of paper to mark out the rug size and shape. This helps you visualise how the rug will sit in the room and whether it will help define zones, anchor furniture and create balance in the space.

Lost Design Society offers a range of rug shapes and sizes, including round rugs, oval rugs, rectangular area rugs and hallway runners.

How to Choose a Rug Colour Online

When buying rugs online in Australia, consider how the rug colour connects with your existing furniture, flooring, walls and décor. A rug can pick up tones from your sofa, cushions, dining table, artwork or other styling pieces, helping the room feel more considered and cohesive.

Neutral rugs are versatile for many Australian homes, while earthy tones, darker colours and patterned rugs can add warmth, contrast and personality.

Using a mood board when buying rugs online

A mood board can help you compare rug colours, shapes, textures and patterns before making a purchase. Try placing your potential rug beside images of your flooring, wall colours, sofa, furniture and décor to see how everything works together.

This is especially useful when choosing between neutral rugs, colourful rugs, patterned rugs, textured natural fibre rugs or browsing our latest new rugs for fresh styling ideas.

Customer Rug Photos and Styling Inspiration

Looking at customer photos can help you visualise how different rugs look in real Australian homes. Customer images can provide context for rug size, colour, shape, pattern and placement, making it easier to choose a rug that suits your own space.

Where possible, compare rooms with similar flooring, furniture colours or layouts to your home. This can be especially helpful when choosing between neutral rugs, natural fibre rugs, transitional rugs or patterned rugs.

Interior Rug Styling

A home interior often reflects the personality, character and style of the people who live there. When choosing a rug online, consider the feeling you want to create, along with the colours, textures and patterns that make the space feel like your own.

A rug can help shape the mood of a room by adding warmth, softness, contrast and visual interest. Neutral rugs can create a calm and versatile base, while patterned rugs, textured rugs and transitional rugs can add more depth and personality.

Interior styling also has a creative side. While design principles can help guide your choices, your home should still reflect your own style, story and sense of belonging.

When buying rugs online in Australia, consider how colour, texture and pattern can work together. Lost Design Society offers rugs online in a wide range of styles, including modern rugs, neutral rugs, natural fibre rugs, transitional rugs and patterned rugs inspired by traditional designs.
