Product styling at my home studio

Now, let me show you a glimpse of the area rug I chose for myself.

It has a beautiful colour combination of blue, brown and green.It is soft to feel, made of 100% viscose fabric, has an appealing design that suits contemporary as well as the traditional Indian interiors.

Some tips for placement of  carpets:

1. You can either have all the furniture legs on the carpets or place the front two on the carpet and the hind legs on the floor.Depending on this choose the size of the carpet for the living area.

2. If you want to have an area rug for a comparatively smaller area and for adding that extra dose of colour and pattern to the area, it is also perfectly okay to have the area rug in the centre, without having any furniture legs on them.

3. For your dining area and bedrooms, it is advisable to have all legs on the area rug, such that the whole set of dining tables and chairs and the bed in case of the bedroom sits comfortably on the carpet or rug.

4.Now,however if you want one near the foot of the bed the golden rule is that the width of the area rug extends beyond the width of the bed to give a neat and balanced look to the room!
