1 - The Minimalist Trend

Another trending idea is to opt for an XXL rug for a homey yet elegant ambiance. A chic, refined, and sophisticated way to enjoy a rug you love is going big and placing it in a larger room such as your living room.

3 - Graphic Designs 

Rugs with printed graphics are probably the trendiest of modern rugs at the moment. However, the problem with these rugs is that they only blend in with only a certain type of decor. However, if your walls are a neutral color, you'll most likely be able to find a rug with a graphic design that will work wonders. 

A modern rug with a graphic design mixing super trendy colors such as duck blue or forest green can be perfect for an interior comprising white or traditional cream walls. These stylish rugs also bring out the beauty of light-toned sofas or bedding. Either way, they always bring character and life to a room.

4 - Hexagonal Rugs

The dynamism of the hexagon, the softness of the wool, and the depth of rich colors: traditional hexagonal rugs carry unique charm.

The unique shape is eye-catching, and the extensive variety of hexagonal rugs ensures there's one for every decor type.

5 - Round Jute Rugs

Natural materials are all the rage this year, and this is a trend you'll want to take part in eventually. You can bet on natural materials such as jute to bring a touch of finesse to your interior.

Round jute rugs are ideal if you are looking for an evergreen decorative style which, in addition to finding its place in any room, can last for years while adapting systematically to your home.

6 - Bohemian Rugs

The boho theme is back again, and we love it! Why not add a bohemian touch to your interior by hanging a printed rug with fringes on your wall? Bet on simple decor and basic colors for your walls and furniture, and opt for a bohemian-style rug to add a colorful, friendly, and designer note to your interior.

If you're genuinely into the bohemian style, try strategically selecting more than one rug and superimpose them for a graphic and artistic effect. A new trend for wall decoration!

7 - Long Hallway Rugs

A simplistic, designer rug for a hallway will allow you to decorate the space while not having cold feet when putting on your shoes or walking barefoot in the night. 

Long and narrow, runner rugs are ideal for bare and what could be considered dull (without the rug) halls. They also work wonders in front of a cabinet for storing shoes or under a small bench.

8 - Bath Mats

As a cocooning decoration tip, bathroom rugs are quickly gaining popularity everywhere. Smaller in size, but just as stylish.

Funny, motivating, and trendy, these rugs are as practical as they are decorative. And they add a touch of humor to the bathroom. What could possibly be a better way to start your day?

9 - Bed Mats

Bed mats are a highly trending rug type. To make things even better, they come in a wide variety. Now you are spoiled for choice!

10 - Modern Wool Rugs

Speaking of wool, there are so many options here that exceed the walls of bedrooms. These modern wool rugs can be a part of your interior in many ways. You can place them facing an armchair in a baby's room, by the bathroom sink, near the bed, or hung on a wall. With wool, the possibilities are endless to decorate and furnish your cocoon.

In addition to being cozy and pleasant, wool rugs are also a great decorative asset. Just make sure that your wool rug choice is in perfect harmony with your furniture, decorative items, and other colors in the room in question.
