There are many reasons why a black rug is a solid investment for your home and in your space. Paired well with minimalist monochromatic design schemes a black rug is always going to be timeless and add an understated warmth and elegance. There are a few pitfalls to watch out for when making your choice - A lighter couch must be chosen to avoid your space becoming engulfed in blackness and therefore too heavy looking (This sometimes makes a room look and feel smaller). They also absorb more natural light and heat than other colour ways so be sure that you’re in the right climate!

Being darker allows these rugs to hide more day to day spills and accidents that inevitably happen - you can double down on this by going for texture and choosing a black rug with either cut & loop piles, silk highlights or even a naturally textured yarn (such as Argentinian wool) to really hide all signs of life. 

In any case, you can never go wrong with a black rug - They are classic. They are modern. They are forever!
