The best way of giving your dining or living room a makeover is by equipping it with a luxurious rug. Area rugs cover some of your floor space while bringing style and comfort to bedrooms, gathering spots, and living areas around your house or apartment. In addition, these rugs help protect your home's hardwood floors while changing the look of your room. Our selection of area rugs at Bed Bath & Beyond offers something in the right size, shape, and color for just about any spot you have in mind. Whether you want to enhance the appearance of your dining room or protect your living room floor, we have you covered. We sell offerings from leading designers like Mohawk, Destination Summer, Bee & Willow™, Safavieh, and Magnolia Home. Shop online or visit a location near you to find an area rug that suits your space and budget.

Area rugs help turn a living or dining room into an inviting place. Using various colors and textures can be an excellent way to express your home design style and enhance your comfort. However, you want to keep floor coverings like 5 × 7 rugs from bunching up. Regardless of the size, thickness, or type, all rugs require rug pads to keep them in place and shield the floors. They serve as a buffer, preventing scratches, wear and tear, and stains while reducing friction. When choosing rug pads, make sure that they are 2-inches shorter and narrower than the area rug. For example, if you want a 5 × 7 rug, you should buy a 4'10" × 6'10" pad.

To determine the type of area rug you want for your home, there are several things to consider. When investing in a new rug, picture your interior design, wall art, and furniture color. It's also wise to think about the foot traffic the rug is likely to get. If your dining room has less foot traffic than other living spaces, you can use a more delicate area rug there. Thickness is another crucial aspect to consider, as rugs with shorter pile are easier to maintain and can last longer. High-pile rugs will have a plush feel to them. However, they can acquire dents from heavy furniture and dining room sets.

The area rugs we carry at Bed Bath & Beyond range from transitional and traditional to contemporary and casual. If you want to create a modern look, contemporary area rugs are a perfect fit since they feature colorful shapes, clean lines, and patterns like stripes, chevrons, and geometrics for a modern aesthetic. Casual area rugs work perfectly for a relaxed and informal home as they feature solid colors and simple designs. Medallion, floral, and paisley patterns complement traditional decor. Blending both timeless and modern elements, transitional area rugs are versatile options for living rooms with a wide range of colors and designs.
