Just similar to the the living room, area rug placement in the
bedroom is always a matter of taste and figuring out what elements
are the most important to you. So, again, I hate to say it but there are
no rules, just guidelines to help you make your decision. Of course,
we all want something soft underfoot when we get up especially if
the floor is tiled while hardwood floor can be okay to step on. Some
people want the rug to extend beyond the bed area and to be placed
under the night tables. Others can’t care less. Here below are some
examples of the area rug placements together with my comments
and obsessively curated area rugs I found for you. I hope will help
you with your own choices of the area rugs for your bedroom.
3. Pretty Pink Bedroom {Image Source:
traditionalhome.com}Here the area rug
placement is such that the night tables are
not on the rug. This beautiful and feminine
bedroom boasts a very pretty area rug with
a one-directional pattern. Turning the rug
the other way was not an option. Instead of
a larger underfoot coverage by the bed
area, the rug extends to cover the sitting
area uniting the two functions of the
bedroom- lounging and sleeping.
4. A decidedly bohemian vibe of this bedroom
is carefree and casual. Rustic, country
elements coexist with contemporary black
and white prints showcasing countryside
scenes. The area rug placement is not
important for those who live here. They
would rather display the full pattern of the
area rug!
5. Ahhh, don’t you want to get under the
blanket in this cozy bedroom? It is all about
textures. A thick area rug is underfoot as
soon as you get up in the morning. Its
natural texture makes you feel warm and
comfortable. Feminine and masculine
elements and colors are doing a “happy
dance” here. Rough brick wall and
geometric patterns of the wall art are
juxtaposed with the softness of the textiles.
Mixed metal colors add interest. How cool
is this warm bedroom!
6. A small bedroom is designed so that it can
function well without feeling space
deprived. The bed is with the legs so that
vacuuming and cleaning are easier under a
flat weave area rug. The area rug is thin and
its color creates unity with the colors of the
upholstered bed and the bedding. The
textures are playing with each other. A
lighting pendant is strategically installed on
the ceiling to empty a small bed dresser for
books and magazines. A separate working
area is created with a floating desk area and
a beautiful wood wall panel that extends to
the ceiling making a visual impact. The
bookshelves are tucked in the corner. A
small footprint chair works perfectly by the
desk area.
7. Here is another example of an ingenious
design concept. This is obviously a guy’s
room that provides for many storage
options, both under the bed and within the
furniture. It has a working area as well as a
creatively designed sitting area so that the
guests can collaborate on a project with
ease. The construction is a no-nonsense
organic structure at different levels for
working, sitting and entertaining. The area
rug placement is underfoot as it defines the
sleeping area of the bedroom.
8. Softness and glamor coexist in this tiny
bedroom with no option for an area rug.
Instead, a fluffy pelt touches the
overworked feet of the ballerina when
she gets up moving forward instead of
sideways. It is obviously not a problem
for her to get up this way!
9. A successful pattern on pattern design
concept is a lot of fun here! Black and
white textured area rug placement is
underfoot. Its pattern is juxtaposed with
a checkers of the bedding. Black and
white geometry is broken with bright
coral accents and a herringbone design
of the wallpaper. The room is both
masculine and feminine. It is simple but
yet sophisticated.
10. Soft blush of the pelt and the
accent pillow works perfectly with
white, dusty blue and natural
wood tones. An area rug is not
important here, it is just a small
area to step on.
11. Fresh, simple, but yet classy look of
this bedroom appeals to someone
who feels a need for uncluttering and
rejuvenating after a long day.
Beautiful ivory and charcoal draperies
colors pick up from a large rug. The
area rug takes up a major part of the
room giving it a simple but
sophisticated look. Creams and beiges
of the bedding and the light fixture
are pretty. The two color schemes are
interesting together but a bit
disconnected to my taste. It feels like
something is missing here.
12. Rustic country chic style received a
fresh twist as it looks very
contemporary in the bedroom. An
area rug placement is perfect for a
yoga practice or a meditation. Just
use the floor pillows for support and
you are all set.
13. Natural elements are in the
cornerstone of this design. A rugged
area rug is underfoot grounding and
connecting you with earth, reminding
you that you are a part of the
universe, a part of nature, charging
you with a sacred energy every
morning! Love that!

you that I put together. It is a

area rug placement in the bedroom.
