Entryways Made Easy
Whether you’re in your first flat share, onto your fifth move in five years or just moved in with your partner for the first time, renting comes with its fair share of design compromises. From tired carpets to worn laminate or flooring that’s seen better days you’re often working with a space that isn’t quite your own.
But good news: you can add a warmth, style and personality that will really make it feel like home. For a simple, damage free way to lift your rented home, a rug is the perfect quick fix!
When you’re renting, flexibility and ease is key. A carefully chosen area rug can transform a space instantly, adding warmth, texture and your personal style, without the need for permanent changes. Whether you choose a cosy rug to sink your toes into in the bedroom, or a washable runner in the kitchen, rugs are a great way to make a rental feel more like home.
Rugs aren’t just a great way to add character, they’ll help you keep your floors free from stains and everyday wear, helping you keep your deposit. They also help reduce noise and echo and soften your footsteps for any neighbours below.
For renters, machine washable rugs are a real lifesaver. One spilled drink or muddy pawprint can turn into a bigger issue, especially if it leaves a stain. A washable rug makes cleaning simple, they’re perfect for high traffic areas like hallways, kitchens and living rooms, they protect your floors and keep daily life stress-free.
Natural textures like jute are a brilliant choice for renters. They’re usually available in a range of neutral tones that will complement most existing interiors, making them a simple and stylish choice that’s adaptable to most homes. In addition to their versatile design, Jute rugs are lightweight and easy to move, perfect for rearranging rooms, or packing up to move along to your next home.
With wool, the benefits are endless – warm, comfortable and durable, wool rugs are designed to elevate any space. Wool is also a naturally stain-resistant property and is easy to clean, meaning wool area rugs are ideal for high-traffic spaces or homes with pets and children.
A wool rug isn’t just a practical choice, it’s an investment. Its long-lasting quality means it can be moved from home to home and you can be confident it will retain its style and functionality for years to come.
For rental properties, our tip would be to choose a neutral tone such as cream, beige or grey as these will match any existing decor and seamlessly blend into your new home.
For a versatile rug that can move with you, you may consider using runners. Washable runners are perfect for hallways and kitchens, helping to define each space whilst keeping your floors clean and protected. Have an open-plan layout? Runners will help add structure and style between the two spaces. As runners are generally lightweight and easy to roll up, they’re a practical choice when you are often moving between rentals.
