A 5x5 and 6x6 rug can highlight your room’s decor by reinforcing the color palette, fitting into your personal style, and emphasizing the overarching tone. When you’re decorating/designing a room, it’s key to look at it as a whole. That way, you’ll naturally choose wall art, poufs, pillows, and other decor that pair well with the rug.
When you’re decorating with a 5x5 and 6x6 area rug, you have plenty of options to choose from. There’s a variety of patterns, color palettes, pile heights, materials, and other key aspects to sift through so that you can find a 5x5 and 6x6 rug that is truly perfect for your space. When you look, remember that your rug should be both beautiful and practical. These rugs are available as washable if you’re concerned about messes, or there are other fabrics with their own set of perks like jute, cotton, wool, etc.
Since there’s so much possibility out there for these rugs, it’s important to think through some important topics.
Position: First, look at your room and decide where you want to place your rug. Each room is unique, but take these general guidelines as a good starting point for designing your home.
Living Room: 5x5 and 6x6 area rugs are often used to establish a seating area in a small living room. If that’s the case for you, then you will likely center the rug in the middle of the seats and have it sit in front of them or under their front legs.
Bedroom: To accent your bed as a main focal point, you can center a 5x5 or 6x6 rug directly beneath the bed and have it closer to two-thirds of the way under it. However, another idea is to have it along the side of the bed and have some overlap with it so the spaces are connected.
Kitchen: 5x5 and 6x6 rugs are ideal for kitchens with an open floor plan. You may center it in the middle of the room itself or if your kitchen is in an L shape, you can set your rug in that corner.
Bathroom: Similar to kitchens, you can use one of these rugs in the middle of the room or in a corner to provide comfort and style to that space.
Outdoors: 5x5 and 6x6 rugs can be used on a deck, patio, or porch as well to establish a seating area or some other general area. If you’re struggling with layout, look back at similar indoor spaces for guidance.
Shape/Size: Even though you’ve narrowed your search to 5x5 and 6x6 rugs, this is a good moment to make sure that’s the ideal size. Once that’s set, decide whether you want a square or round rug. Each has its perks in terms of how it layers with furniture and the tone that it conveys, so take this step seriously.
Pattern: Your rug’s pattern is instrumental in establishing the room’s tone and style. Fortunately, 5x5 and 6x6 rugs come in a variety of patterns like traditional, boho, vintage, modern, and so many others. When you choose a pattern, look at your existing decor for similar shapes, imagery, and motifs so that the room is thematically consistent.
Color: The rug’s color palette is equally important in conveying your style and tone. Even popular colors like black, grey, white, red, pink, gold, and yellow come in many different combinations and shades so that you can personalize your style and blend into your room’s color palette.
