PROJECT CONDO: CHOOSING A RUG

While I've been picking out the pieces for our art wall in the dining room, I've been thinking about what type of rug would look best in our space. I want something with a little pop and interest to anchor down the room. Overall, I'm looking for an industrial feel with rustic and vintage elements. I also don't want it to look too feminine or too masculine. Adding in the industrial buffet, end chairs, art wall and decorations will really add a lot to this look, but I'm looking for a perfect rug to compliment the whole space. I'm stuck on three different looks and could use a little advice!


1// Black & White Geometric Rug - I love the classic look of black and white as well as this bold pattern. I also like that this rug won't show spills or stains as easily.

2// Cowhide Rug - I think this option is really interesting. It's not something I would usually go for, but I'm starting to really fall for the rustic vibe it gives off. This might be a good option for cats since it's not woven.

3// Navajo Colorful Rug - This rug has more color and pattern to it then the other two. I think it gives off a nice vintage feel but still fits the coziness of the rustic look.

To get a little visual, here is the current progress of my dining room, with the rugs next to them to get a better overall visual. I think I like all of them?! Thoughts??


I'd love your help on deciding which one I should get! -- OR if you have a favorite rug shops online, please share as well! Thanks for your help! :)
