Modern Rugs

If you’re looking to add a touch of modern style to your home, look no further than mid-century modern rugs. Mid-century modern rugs are characterised by their clean lines, minimalist design, and use of natural materials.


Mid-century modern rugs are the perfect way to add a touch of modern style to any room in your home. They’re perfect for living rooms, bedrooms, dining rooms, and more. Modern rugs have designs that reflect the styles of the 1920s to 1950s, which is why they are also referred to as mid-century modern rugs. If you're looking for more contemporary designs, check out our contemporary rugs.

Modern Rugs for Living Room

The living room is one of the most popular places to put a mid-century modern rug. Mid-century modern rugs can help to bring the whole room together and make it feel more cohesive. If you have a lot of different furniture pieces and décor items with natural materials in your living room, a modern rug can help tie it all together. Modern wool rugs would be the perfect fit at the center of the modern living room décor.

Mid Century Modern Rugs for Outdoors

Not only are mid-century modern rugs perfect for indoors, but they can also work well outdoors. If you have a patio or deck that you’d like to spruce up, consider adding a mid-century modern rug. Modern outdoor rugs are made to withstand the elements, so you don’t have to worry about them getting ruined in the rain or sun. Plus, they can add a pop of color and modern style to your outdoor space.

How to Decorate With Modern Rugs

When it comes to decorating with modern rugs, there are a few things to keep in mind. First, consider the colors and patterns of the rug. If you want the rug to be a focal point in the room, choose one with a vibrant geometric pattern or color. If you want the rug to blend in with the rest of the décor, choose a more neutral rug or a black and white modern rug.

Another thing to keep in mind is the size of the rug. You’ll want to make sure that the rug is in proportion to the rest of the furniture and décor in the room. At Boutique Rugs, you will find various shape and size options such as small modern rugs, large rugs, modern runners and mid-century round rugs.

The style of the rug is also important to consider. If you have a more traditional home, you might want to stick with a classic mid-century modern rug. If you have a rustic or farmhouse style decor, then a modern farmhouse rug would be a great option. A modern shag rug is also a great choice for a more contemporary home.

When it comes to choosing the perfect mid-century modern rug for your home, there are a few things to keep in mind. But with so many different style options available, you’re sure to find the perfect modern rug for your space.

FAQs for Mid-Century Modern Rugs

What are the key design characteristics of a Mid-Century Modern rug?

They are defined by clean lines, bold geometric or abstract patterns, and a color palette that mixes warm, earthy tones with vibrant accent colors.

Which materials are recommended for Mid-Century Modern rugs, and for what type of use?

Wool is recommended for durability and high-traffic areas, while silk adds elegance to low-traffic areas. Natural fibers add texture, and synthetic fibers are best for stain resistance or outdoor use.

What is the rule for sizing and placing a rug in a dining room versus a bedroom?

For a dining room, the rug must extend 18 to 24 inches beyond the table edges so that chairs remain on the rug when pulled out. In a bedroom, the rug should be placed under the lower two-thirds of the bed, extending beyond the sides and foot for comfort.

Should I choose a bold pattern or a neutral rug for a Mid-Century Modern space?

For neutral rooms, choose a bold, vibrant pattern to make the rug a focal point. For rooms with existing color and pattern, select a neutral, single-toned, or subtly textured rug to create balance.

Is a rug pad necessary for a new rug?

Yes, a rug pad is highly recommended because it prevents slipping, provides extra cushioning, and protects the rug's fibers from premature wear against the hard floor.
