Area rugs are more than just floor coverings; they are essential elements that add beauty, style, and luxury to any space. At Montreal Lighting and Hardware, we understand the transformative power of a well-chosen area rug. Our collection features a variety of designs, patterns, and textures to suit every taste and interior decor.

Area rugs elevate your home's aesthetics and functionality in several ways:
Style & Beauty: Area rugs come in a vast array of styles, from classic Persian motifs to modern geometric patterns, and everything in between. You can find rugs crafted from luxurious materials like plush wool, gleaming silk, or natural jute, adding a touch of elegance and sophistication to your space.
Defined Spaces: Area rugs help define different areas within a large open floor plan. For instance, placing an area rug under your living room furniture creates a cozy seating area, visually separating it from the dining space.
Comfort Underfoot: Area rugs add a layer of warmth and softness to bare floors, making them more comfortable to walk on, especially during colder months. The plush fibres provide a pleasant sensation underfoot, transforming your space into a haven of comfort.
Enhanced Acoustics: Area rugs can help dampen sound, especially in rooms with hardwood or tile floors. The rug fibres absorb sound waves, creating a quieter and more peaceful environment.
Protected Floors: Area rugs protect your floors from everyday wear and tear, particularly in high-traffic areas like living rooms, hallways, and entryways. They can also shield your floors from spills and scratches, minimizing potential damage.
Focal Points: A stunning or vibrantly coloured area rug can become a captivating focal point in your room, drawing attention and setting the design tone for the space. Imagine a luxurious hand-knotted wool rug with a captivating geometric pattern gracing your living room floor, instantly transforming it into a sophisticated and stylish space.

With a variety of exquisitearea rugs available, selecting the right pieces for your space requires careful consideration. Here are some key factors to keep in mind:
Size: Consider the size of the room and the furniture arrangement. The rug should be large enough to define the seating area without overwhelming the space. Ideally, the front legs of your furniture should rest on the rug, grounding the space visually.
Style: Choose a rug that complements your existing décor and architectural style. Classic Persian rugs work well in traditional settings, while modern spaces might benefit from geometric or abstract patterns.
Material: Area rugs come in various materials, each offering unique benefits. Wool rugs provide luxurious comfort and natural stain resistance, while nylon rugs are known for their durability and ease of cleaning. Natural fiber rugs like jute or sisal add a touch of organic texture and are perfect for high-traffic areas.
Colour and Pattern: Use area rugs to introduce colour or pattern into your space. A bold, patterned rug can become a focal point, while a neutral rug can provide a foundation for other design elements.
The maintenance of your area rug depends on the material. Regular vacuuming is essential for all rugs to remove dust and debris. For deeper cleaning, professional cleaning is recommended every 1-2 years, depending on the rug's material and usage. Spot-cleaning spills immediately help prevent them from setting in. Always follow the manufacturer's cleaning recommendations to ensure proper care for your rug.
Q: What is the purpose of an area rug?
Area rugs serve several purposes. They add warmth, texture, and visual interest to a space, define different areas within a room, enhance comfort underfoot, and protect floors from everyday wear and tear.
Q: How much of the room should an area rug take up?
The ideal size of an area rug depends on the space and furniture arrangement. In a living room, the rug should ideally be large enough for the front legs of most furniture pieces to rest on it, grounding the space visually. However, you can also opt for a smaller rug placed strategically under a coffee table to define the seating area.
