This eye-catching round rug with the peacock motif has me contemplating when round rugs make the best sense?
At first what came to mind was the image of a round braided rag rug in front of a roaring fireplace with a sleeping cat...
However it looks like circular rugs may be having a resurgence. Round rugs may be just the thing to:
(1) define an intimate living space, such as furniture grouped for conversation
(2) to break up all the rectangular lines of a room
(3) to add interest to a room, possibly layered over a rectangular rug or a wall-to-wall treatment and
(4) to echo a round shape in either a piece of furniture or the architecture of a room.
