Light grey rugs: from modern to classic

Good news: you can never go wrong with a light grey rug. In fact, a rug in this colour fits well anywhere. It is the perfect colour for a modern look, but a classic living room also benefits from a nice light grey shade.

But a grey rugs is incredibly boring, isn’t it?

Well, it really isn’t! Because if you combine grey in a certain way with colours and materials, you get a very exciting effect!

What colours to combine with light grey?

Grey combines very well with green. To combine a light grey rug, choose olive green (dark grey goes very well with moss green). Light grey also goes very well with soft pink or blue—all shades that do very well in a Scandinavian interior. If you add leather or metal furniture to the light grey rug, for example, a (fake) leather chair or a metal lamp, you can instantly furnish your home in the popular industrial style.

Light grey rug with or without pattern

You can buy a light grey rug with a pattern or plain colour. The choice is yours. If you want to lay down a rug in a modern living room, it’s best to choose a low-pile rug. The hairs on such a rug are shorter than on a high-pile rug, and this gives it a sleek look. Add a nice pattern with straight lines and your modern living room can’t fail. The low pile makes the pattern stand out even more. You will find many such rugs in our selection of designer rugs.

Do you like a bit of cosiness, and can the pattern on your rug have some swirly lines? Then we recommend our light grey vintage rugs. These low-pile rugs look like they have been around for years, but are secretly brand new. So perfect for a typical vintage atmosphere in your home.

Light grey rugs in all shapes and sizes

There are not just rectangular rugs. You can also get a light grey rug in round shapes. Since the colour grey is so versatile, you can put your round rug anywhere. You can even lay such a light grey dot over another rug! Who needs designers, you just invent your own rug!
