When it comes to area rugs that command a room, there are three elements to consider: material, color, and size. You’ve hit the jackpot when all three work together. Today, Crate & Barrel releases a new collection of rugs that does exactly that. The exciting launch features 90 (yes, you read that right) patterns that combine high-quality materials, soft palettes, and a wide range of sizes. And if you aren’t sure what size is right for your space, worry not. Crate & Barrel has an online rug-buying guide that is here to help.

What’s more, the materials are pretty much the best of the best. Think shed-resistant New Zealand wool, premium viscose that is nothing short of luxurious, and classic jute and sisal. It’s all in the details that make the rugs worth their weight. Each one is hand-woven, knotted, or tufted before it’s finished with serged edges. In other words, it will take a lot before these elegant rugs start showing signs of wear and tear.

He couldn't have said it better, area rugs certainly have the power to completely transform a room, elevating it to a level of sophistication that may surprise you. Not to mention, each pattern is inspired by some of the world’s most beautiful destinations including the Atlas Mountains in Morocco.

Whether you’re wrapping up the design scheme in your dining area or refreshing your living room, you may have just found the perfect finishing touch to complete your space. Did we mention that they’re incredibly easy to clean? So if you’ve always coveted a crisp, creamy area rug but didn’t want to spend hours every week scrubbing off the dirt, now is your chance to make your dreams come true. Otherwise, enjoy the unlimited palette of sultry, Earth-inspired hues.
