There are a few things to consider before starting your design journey with us at Rugs and More. To narrow the search from the start, determine what your budget is. This will set parameters to refine your search. Then, determine which size of rug would work best for your space. Whether it’s a runner to polish off a hallway, or a large area rug, the size is the first step to finding a rug you will adore.
Rugs are meant to be lived in and loved, let us help you pick one you want to spend your life making your own. To be loved is to be changed.

I recommend observing the traffic in the area of the home that you are anticipating placing the rug. While all of our rugs are made with the highest quality materials, built to sustain a lifetime of use, some materials work better for certain conditions than others. For example, we likely wouldn’t want to place a fine silk rug in your mudroom, perhaps in a bedroom or cozy living room. Consider who will be enjoying the rug! Do you have ‘artistic’ grandchildren? A very furry feline or dog companion? Do you have trees outside that lose their leaves and somehow find their way indoors? Take note of the conditions your rug will live in, and we can help you decide what kind of rug will perform best in that area.
Once you have narrowed down the basics - it is time to decide on a style. Whether you are a modern trendsetter that is not afraid to make a statement, someone who prefers timeless contemporary looks, a homebody who wants to feel the warmth traditional rugs bring, or even a historian who wants a piece of something from the past, we have the right rugs for you. Rugs and More has curated pieces over a lifetime from all over the world, suiting every different taste, color palette, lifestyle, and aesthetic.
Still having trouble committing? We can let you see the rug in your space before pulling the trigger. Nothing is worse than when the picture you had in your head does not translate in real life - and that is why we are here! We want to help you pursue your design dreams, and love the space you are in; because truly, once the right rug is added to a room, it will feel as though it was always there.
Rugs & More provides the West Coast with the most comprehensive collection of new, antique, & oriental rugs.
