subject: Good Rug Placing Ideas For Your Office [print this page] Appropriate placing of rugs is just as important as the purchase itself. Assuming that purchase was done according to the theme of the office room i.e. Modern Rugs for modern glassy offices and more traditional variants for the elegant wood panelled or wood walled offices, placement has to be done keeping in the mind the foot traffic, cleaning, furniture and other decorations like potted or indoor plants that may be there. You must also consider the light in the room in addition to the work atmosphere before the placing is done.
Furniture
The furniture in the office is usually varied in shapes and sizes. Depending on the type of the office room, your furniture will vary. Assuming that the right rug for every room is chosen, you should place the furniture first to see how it will all look. If it is a new office you are furnishing, then placing furniture or at least having an idea about use of floor space will give you an impression of how Round Rugs or Traditional Rugs can be fit in. Furniture placement is done in accordance to many factors including the workflow. The placement of both modern and Budget Rugs should not in any way hamper movement. It goes without saying that the floor, the rug and furniture should complement each other and should not in any way seem out of place. If you do not have an interior decorator to help you with making the right choices, ask the Kids Rugs dealer to send one of their design consultants to your office, so you can be absolutely sure before making the purchase.
Use runners
Offices have places where there is frequent movement; especially the reception and Wool Rugs must definitely be avoided in such areas. You can consider Contemporary Rugs with runners that will ensure that your rugs stay in form properly. While using too many may be a bad idea, you can consider using a circular rug in the centre in of a room and then use runners along the walls. The one in the centre will create a visual contrast. This is ideal in a private office, reception or other places where people are usually seated along the walls. For the chairman's or director's office, consider placing Leather rugs to give added elegance to the room.
Maintaining the environment
This is one of the most important considerations when placing Large Rugs. While it all starts with the purchase, the placement also determines how your office feels and looks to others. Every office has a feel to it, depending on what goes on in there. A lifestyle magazine office can have a casual feel and anything including Shaggy Rugs would go in. On the other hand a lawyer's office needs a sober environment that does not impinge on the minds of people in there. If required, take help from an expert consultant before making your purchase decision. If expenses are a constraint, consider buying budget Rugs instead of the more expensive varieties.
