Nordic designer area rugs bring warmth and style to every room
A Scandinavian designer rug does more than protect your floor from scratches – it enhances the room's atmosphere, softens acoustics, and feels delightful underfoot. At Finnish Design Shop, you'll find a curated selection of designer area rugs and carpets from Finland, Scandinavia, and beyond.
Whether you're looking for a traditional rag rug, a handwoven kilim rug, a Nordic wool rug, or a fun children's room rug, we have the perfect option for you! Explore popular rug designs from Nordic brands like Woodnotes, Finarte, Pappelina, and ferm LIVING.
How to choose the size of the rug?
A rug visually defines the area and ties the furniture together. Make sure to choose a size that complements your space: a living room rug or an area rug should extend to the edges of your sofa, a hallway runner should cover most of the walkway, and a dining room rug should fit under both the table and chairs. Large rugs and carpets suit living and dining rooms, while narrow runner rugs are ideal for hallways and kitchens. For bedrooms, consider either a large rug under the bed or smaller rugs on each side.
Rectangular rugs work in most spaces, while round rugs pair beautifully with curved furniture and layouts. For a bold statement, try an asymmetric rug or a uniquely patterned designer rug.
How to choose the material for your Nordic rug
• Soft and luxurious materials like high-pile wool rugs are perfect for living rooms and bedrooms. Wool's natural dirt-repellent properties make it a practical and long-lasting choice.
• For kitchens, especially in homes with children, choose an easy-to-clean cotton rug or a plastic rug that wipes clean effortlessly.
• Durable jute and sisal rugs are ideal for entryways and creating a rustic vibe.
• Dirt-resistant paper yarn rugs are a natural and allergy-friendly choice for any room.
• For outdoor areas, choose a purpose-built terrace rug, and for bathrooms, opt for a cosy bath mat.
Styling tips for Scandi rugs
When selecting a Scandinavian rug, think about how it complements your existing decor and colour palette. Rugs with bold patterns can transform a room instantly, especially when surrounded by minimalist furniture. If your space calls for serenity, choose a Nordic-inspired rug with subtle textures or solid colours. Also, consider how the rug's tones blend with your floors and walls for a cohesive look.
• Black rugs add dramatic contrast to your space.
• White rugs create a serene and airy feel.
• Grey rugs offer timeless versatility.
• Blue rugs evoke the calmness of the sea and sky.
• Green rugs bring natural energy to your home.
• Pink rugs add warmth and a playful touch.
