Ferm Living rugs

How to choose your Ferm Living rug?

What are the different types of Ferm Living carpet?

Ferm Living offers different types of carpet, each designed to meet different needs and requirements. 

Wool carpets, such as the Forma rug, offer a warm, soft surface that gives feet a feeling of luxury. They are easy to care for and suitable for a wide range of rooms, from bedrooms to living rooms.

Graphic rugs, such as the Piece rug, are eye-catching, attention-grabbing pieces. They add character to spaces that lack it, and can be laid on the floor or hung on walls.

Ferm Living Kelim rugs are easy-to-use, extremely practical rugs that roll up easily for cleaning, making them perfect for children's rooms and the kitchen.

How to choose the ideal Ferm Living rug?

There are several factors to take into account when choosing your rug, such as the size of the room and the number of pieces of furniture, the use of the space and the desired aesthetic. 

In large rooms, opt for a large rug without being afraid of visual boldness. A large rug will give strength and visual coherence, contributing to the feeling of harmony. Choose textures and colors that harmonize with your furniture and the color of your walls.

In small spaces, use small rugs that effectively structure the room to give the impression of a larger space. In bedrooms, for example, small rugs lying alongside the bed give a feeling of well-being. 

In kitchens and hallways, easy-care rugs such as Kelim or jute are ideal. 

Should I choose a round or rectangular rug?

Rectangular rugs create proportion and balance, adding structure and symmetry to a space. They are a great accompaniment to rectangular furniture such as tables, dressers or sofas. 

Round rugs like the Eternal Jute harmonize perfectly with round tables and curved furniture, like the Rico sofa, creating an echo between the rug and the furniture.

Where to place your carpet?

We often think that a rug needs to be big enough to accommodate all the furniture, but this isn't necessarily necessary. The most important thing is to allow your feet to rest on the rug's soft, warm surface. 

In a living room, for example, you can place a rug under the front legs of your sofa and chairs. As long as your feet rest on the rug when you're seated, the arrangement will be balanced and comfortable. This strategy allows you to choose a smaller rug that creates unity in the room.

Which materials to choose?

The choice of material depends on the intended location and your lifestyle. Consider durability, visual appeal and ease of maintenance.

Jute rugs add distinctive character and exceptional tactile quality to your space. Their low-maintenance nature makes them ideal for high-traffic areas like kitchens and dining rooms. Jute’s natural texture complements a variety of surfaces, including stone, marble and wood.

Wool rugs are known for their durability. Their natural oils make them self-cleaning, as they repel spills and dirt and are stain resistant. Additionally, wool rugs improve air quality by trapping fine dust particles, making them a great choice for living rooms and bedrooms.

Kelim rugs offer a blend of versatility and timeless design. Made from natural wool and cotton yarns, they feature a unique tactile texture that adds depth and character to any room. Easy to maintain with a simple vacuum, Kelim rugs are practical and durable, making them ideal for children's bedrooms.

What colors to choose?

Light and dark hues add depth to rooms, an effect that's easy to achieve by laying two rugs of different colors side by side or by opting for a large rug that features both light and dark tones.

You can also opt for a rug in muted colors and place a lighter element, like a coffee table, on top to create visual interest. If your space has a neutral color palette, consider including rugs in bold, artistic hues. This approach will add contrast and energy to your space.

How to maintain your carpet?

We recommend applying a silicone-free waterproofer. This not only protects it from moisture, but also prevents fading due to sun exposure.
