One of the things I’m most excited about for our next home (whenever that happens) is picking out a new living room rug and sofa. I find myself dreaming up pretty combinations and saving them to my Pinterest board. When I heard Jenni Kayne was launching a new collection with Lulu & Georgia (two of my favorites) I added them to my collection right away. Here are four beautiful pairings for you + the reasons why I chose them.
4 Rug & Sofa Pairings
Transitional: Stripes are always classic and tend to make a space feel casual, current and put-together. This particular rug is fairly bold. I would pair it with this neutral sofa which has a very transitional shape. Throw in a raw wood coffee table and you have a yourself a nice little coastal bungalow feel.
Retro Glam: I love the earthy green fabric on this sofa. The velvet paired with turned wooden legs makes this traditional piece a little more glamorous. Since the lines of the sofa are still quite simple, you have the freedom to pair it with a number of different rug styles. I thought the neutral geo pattern of this one offered a beautiful and interesting style contrast.
Organic Casual: This combination is all about natural, relaxed textures. This linen slipcover sofa is about as cool and casual as you can get with a sofa. I would pair it with this jute rug which is another natural fiber (like the linen) and adds a little interest with a thick weave. If you’re going for a more coastal or Californian look, this is your winning combo. Pair it with a weather wood coffee table to give this space a story.
Simple & Stately: The tufting and weathered leather of this sofa called for a simple rug to soften it up. I love the subtle texture of this rug. It feels a bit more feminine than the sofa and offers the perfect balance. I’d add an iron coffee table and some really cozy lighting to round it out.
