Rugs are an increasingly essential decorative accessory for the home. Practical and stylish, they can be chosen anywhere to furnish any room, from the bedroom to the bathroom. Choosing the right room for the rug will help us find the right model, from shape and size to color, pattern, and material. In the bedroom, rugs are furnishing accessories that help us create a welcoming, relaxing space. At the same time, they are not only decorative but also functional. How to choose rugs for a master bedroom?
In our guide to rugs, we've explained everything you need to know about these furnishing accessories. Why are rugs important, and how can you find the right one for your bedroom?
We don't always choose a rug to decorate the bedroom. We often find it in the living room, perhaps under or in front of the sofa, between the chairs and a coffee table, or as a large rug under the dining table. A rug is very functional in the kitchen and bathroom—practical and busy spaces—or even at the entrance to the home, but not everyone expects this accessory to play a key role in the bedroom as well. We'll explain why.
There are those who believe that a carpet is bulky in a bedroom and not very functional, but instead a carpet in the bedroom elevates the style of a minimal environment , makes a boho chic style bedroom more refined , and enlivens and personalises a modern double bedroom .
And these are just the aspects related to the aesthetics of the rug , because from a functional point of view we have many advantages in choosing one or more rugs for the master bedroom.
Besides giving the bedroom a more refined aesthetic and personalising this space regardless of the furnishing style, bedroom rugs are comfortable because they immediately create a comfy sensation: we feel welcomed, we want to walk barefoot on a soft, long-haired rug, but it also allows us to relax by sitting on it while reading a book or listening to music. In the morning, as soon as we wake up, it's definitely better to rest our feet on a soft rug rather than on the cold floor , so it's perfect at the sides of our bed.
A rug can dampen footfall —think of a large rug to put under the bed, it can cover a damaged or unwanted floor , and it can also define the spaces in a single room. If you live in a tiny apartment, you can divide areas of the same room by using rugs.
How do you choose rugs for your bedroom? It depends on what you're looking for: whether you want to focus on aesthetics, enhance the look of your room, make it more welcoming, or perhaps you're looking for a solution to cover an old floor or create a defined space without remodeling.
If we want to make our bedroom more interesting , a rug will save us time and money. Choose a colorful rug to create an accent, or a patterned rug, such as one with geometric, floral, or ethnic motifs, to enhance the aesthetic and style of our room.
Warm colors are in fashion this year, so we could choose bedroom rugs in these shades. We can opt for a solid color rug or one with a distinctive pattern, depending on the room's style and size. Overly large patterns or elaborate designs could overwhelm the space.
Even if you don't need to cover the floor entirely, consider its texture, color, and material. You can create continuity with it by choosing a rug in the same color, or go for a contrasting effect with a rug that stands out completely.
Among the new additions to the catalog, we offer the Madison rug by Calligaris . Madison is a classic-style rug made with an industrial loom . Available in four elegant, neutral shades, it's a sustainable product made from recycled polyester. Simple and comfortable, it's a complement capable of making any room in the home more welcoming, even perfect for the bedroom.
The Boccioni rug by Tonin Casa features an elegant , modern design featuring a floral decoration in industrial yarn. Crafted with fringe, this rug is available in the vintage inlaid versions of Ecru and Black or Marsala and Dark Brown. The Marsala color creates a sophisticated accent, perfect for a terracotta floor.
Bedroom rugs are decorative solutions that add a touch of both exclusivity and total comfort . We choose to place them at the sides of the bed so we can rest our feet before going to bed and when getting out of bed.

We can choose two identical rugs—usually rectangular—that is, the same size, color, and shape, to place on each side of the bed. Another idea is to choose a large rug, but place it under the bed and extend it out to the sides. Or, you can choose a single rug with a unique shape. Irregularly shaped rugs are very popular, and can be placed either on one side of the bed (ideal if you have a single bed and want to liven up the space) or in front of the double bed.
The The Curved rug by Calligaris is a large, distinctive rug with organic lines and irregular shapes. This high-pile rug is digitally printed using high-tech techniques. The nuanced effect in shades of beige, impossible to recreate by hand, gives the rug a contemporary yet soft aesthetic, perfect for any room in the home. We recommend it at the foot of the bed in a modern, vintage-style bedroom, or in the charming boho chic style—the current decor trend.
Oval Lovac rug in soft nylon polyamide in a gradient shade . Lovac features a digital print in two gradient shades, green or gray, and a matching felt border. Its organic design adds elegance to any space.
Rugs are also purchased to improve sound insulation and reduce footfall, as well as providing a greater sense of warmth and comfort both when simply laid out in the room and when we walk on them.
Let's say you want to define the spaces in your bedroom, or you live in a small apartment—like a studio—where you're looking for space-saving solutions without necessarily having to resort to renovations. Rugs are also perfect for defining different spaces within a single room, even in the bedroom. If you live in a loft or have an open-plan apartment, rugs can help you define and divide spaces .
Do you have a reading area in your bedroom? Furnish it with an armchair, a coffee table, a reading lamp, and a soft rug. This way, you'll not only create a cozy relaxation corner, but you'll also separate the spaces, defining them with strategic furnishings and accessories.
You can also highlight a specific corner like the makeup station by using rugs.
One of the most copied trends is to use multiple rugs by overlapping them , thus creating interesting accent points and making the room personalized and welcoming.
The subtle, intersecting hexagonal patterns of the Offset rug create an elegant visual depth , enhanced by the continuous pattern when woven vertically or horizontally. Made on an industrial loom, the Offset rug's unique craftsmanship makes it look and feel like a hand-woven rug.
For a modern bedroom, we recommend irregularly shaped, long-pile rugs. Shaggy rugs are increasingly popular because they add a touch of comfort and warmth to the room. If you've chosen a minimalist decor, we recommend sticking to light colors and neutral tones, even when choosing rugs.
The most popular colors are white, ivory, beige, and elegant dove gray, but we also find gray, a versatile and sophisticated color.
We can place rugs in a modern or minimalist bedroom in different ways:
If you've chosen a minimalist style with clean-lined furniture , a low-pile rug in neutral tones is best, so it fits in with the overall aesthetic. Have you chosen a boho chic style for your bedroom? Go for more original rugs, shaggy rugs, or fringed rugs. More and more people are opting for an industrial —or at most urban chic —style for their bedrooms, too. In this case, play with textured rugs and bolder colors like gray, black, or even burgundy.
Chinese is a jacquard-woven rug with a simple, contemporary aesthetic . The design alludes to Eastern symbolism, where the circle is a symbol of perfection, as well as the ideal representation of cyclical time, where everything returns. The graphic theme is designed to be used with multiple rugs.
Rugs for modern spaces, in addition to being functional, allow us to define our room with originality and highlight even simpler furnishings and spaces.
The size of the bedroom is a factor to always keep in mind when choosing a rug. While rugs can define both a double and single bedroom, we must always consider the available space. While a large rug is one of the preferred solutions this year, in a small room —such as a single bedroom —it's best to choose a model that doesn't overwhelm the space .
The advice is to consider the space, the layout of the room, especially if the bedroom is small, and what we want to achieve from our rug, that is:
In a small, limited space or in a compact bedroom, it is better to choose medium-sized or irregularly shaped rugs to create dynamism .
If you want to create a focal point in a single bedroom – perhaps a larger and more spacious one – try the Roche CS7258 rug by Calligaris .
The shape of Roche rugs is inspired by the natural shape of rocks and stones . The irregular contours are emphasized by a shift in tone, leaving the most intense color in the center. Roche is made in Europe on a jacquard loom, which allows for the use of a large number of colors and the creation of nuances that would be impossible to achieve by hand.
What we enjoy most about choosing a rug these days is undoubtedly creating points of interest, playing with colors, shapes, and fabrics, fully personalizing our room. How to choose rugs for an original bedroom?
We can create contrasts using complementary colors, meaning those opposite hues on the color wheel. If our flooring is light, we prefer a dark rug; if we've chosen dark wood for the furniture, try a rug in neutral shades, perhaps with geometric patterns that will highlight the design. For an original bedroom, ethnic rugs remain the most popular choice due to their bold color combinations and unique patterns.
This year we've seen several furnishing trends emerge: on one hand, the return of Midcentury , which calls for a sophisticated environment, with light tones and dark wood furniture. On the other, we have maximalism , with original furnishings and accessories, where abundance is always better, but doing so with the sole purpose of personalising the space.
The Dopamine Decor style also allows us to define spaces in a unique way, playing with colors and fluid shapes.
Playing with colors and patterns. The Cek CB7257 rug by Connubia was born from the pleasant memory of a school notebook . A mesh of simple lines creates an orthogonal tartan with a pleasant visual effect that defines the room. Soft to the touch, it is perfect under a table or in front of the sofa.
