Study inspiration: 3 suitable study rugs
Working from home or your own office doesn't mean the space has to look like a soulless cube. Your workspace deserves so much more; after all, it's your personal canvas for ideas and inspiration. One of the easiest and most impactful ways to give a room personality? A rug! Let's look at three types of study rugs that work well in a home office.
Flat-weave rug for maximum efficiency
Are you placing the rug under your office chair? Go for a flat-weave, thin rug. This way you glide easily over the rug without the pile getting caught in your office chair wheels. Who says you have to compromise on style when you're focused on hitting those deadlines? A flat-weave rug is very versatile and can be easily printed with different designs in various colours. Choose, for example, a vintage, patchwork or abstract rug.
Is the rug going somewhere else in the study? Then you have plenty of options. For those who want to bring bedroom comfort into the study, for example, you can choose a high-pile rug.
Natural vibes with a jute rug
Jute rugs aren't just trendy, they bring a piece of nature into your workspace and help you stay focused. Imagine: you look up from your screen and your eyes find the warm, earthy look of the jute rug and voilà: you're mentally on holiday. Jute rugs also lend themselves perfectly to creating cosy corners in the study. Think, for example, of a lounge area with a comfortable chair. Adding a rug gives the whole thing a cosier feel and also helps define a zone. This way you can take a moment for yourself between work.
Vintage or patchwork: the creative game-changer
Why not surround your workday with a touch of nostalgia? Vintage and patchwork rugs are like a mood board for your floor. The variety of patterns and colours makes each vintage or patchwork rug a unique work of art. Perfect for the creative souls among us who like to colour outside the lines. Speaking of colours, choose blue or green shades to maintain calm or go for red and orange tones if you want to boost your creativity.
A rug plays an important role in furnishing a study. It adds a bit more atmosphere and also contributes to better acoustics. So the question isn't whether to choose a study rug, but which one! Add some plants, hang that art on the wall and you're ready for a productive and inspiring workday.
