would this area rug match my couch/living room?
Currently trying to find an area rug that would go well in my living room. We found one on wayfair we think might work. The couch is the jollene sectional from Macy’s in navy blue. I’ll attach a picture of the living room. The rug we are considering is:
Citium Blue Area Rug

We’re also open to suggestions. Thanks in advance!

I like leggy seating to sit entirely on the rug for a grounded feeling, and it should extend past the ends of the sofa by at least a foot, if not more. Consider what you want for an accent color and incorporate some of that color into a rug. Here are some warmer accents.

Too tidy with no design in our living room
Comments (43)Now it's beginning to work! Luv the rug! A few more red showstoppers, and I luv the post about matting your family pic, and larger frame for it. Looks like you might be a bit uncomfortable with the great post idea of moving your sofa out into the room away from wall. If so, could you accept putting it diagonally from the entrance doorway, across that corner where it is, stopping at the edge of your window? That's a bit of a move outward, still can see the fp and tv, and show off your new rug, which could go diagonally in front of the sofa. Then, if you like that, after a while you could move it on out as Deb K suggests. Sometimes intermediate steps are more doable for us than those big changes.Same with painting; if you could first paint just the fp wall, then later paint other walls...seems some color would really make it more homey. Would you cosider a quite contemporary fixture for the light in the center ceiling? Maybe a bit of red could go there!...See MoreNeed help to improve...!! living room, and work area
Comments (4)Since the color is more modern, try to stick to modern furniture. But that color could also be contemporary so you can also use contemporary furniture...See Moreliving room ..........
Comments (1)As you probably know your current colour pallet is very restricted to the couch, curtain, arm chair, carpet and TV & TV cabinet. I would select a variety of colours from this pallet but use the tones that bring room into the living space e.g. I would find a huge, long pile rug that takes up the entire space between the couch and the TV, then add matching cushions to the couch and a throw for the arm chair. This colour of white (or cream - it is hard to tell in the picture) should really brighten up the room. The couch cushions and throw could also take on the black from the TV but my base colour would be the cream / white - what ever colour the curtains are. I would also add art work and a standing lamp. Maybe black and white art and a few nick nacks on the TV stand....See MoreNeed help with updating living area
Comments (2)Why don't you live in the house for a while and get a feel for things. The curtains are bright but if they are still good quality / newish it would be a very expensive exercise to replace them (I have just spent a few thousand just on three rooms), you can always add a few red cushions or a red toned throw over your existing couch or a rug with a red tones in to it, to tone the red down, if required. Repainting the walls is cheaper than replacing curtains and a piece of art with red tones may also help. As far as furniture is concerned it would depend on what you like style wise. Why not send us a photo after you have moved in. You may find some of your concerns disappear once you are in and settled....See More

4 years agoHi, D Lap. I'd like to see a rug that has more color variation. While you may not prefer the geometric pattern of the one below, note how it references the colors you have in your open concept space: gray from the lower kitchen cabinets, camel from your counter chairs and blue from your sofa.
I like the Oriental style of the one you've chosen. So, you could look for a similar style with more variation to bring all of your other choices together.
