This proves that even the best of us live with less than great options. My talented design assistant Debbie was ignoring the too small rug in her office/den space (you know how it is-you are reminded every time you see it, but the thought flies right out of your brain the second you exit the room- then repeat about a hundred times).
As with all creative minds, you wait for just the right thing. She was finally struck by a gorgeous houndstooth area rug. Number one it brightens the space as well as visually expanding the floor space. Number two it is just so darn cool. The large exaggerated pattern is perfect with the neutral couches and the scale works with the drapes. So as you can see size does matter in this case (guess she can repurpose the other rug by the doggie door!).
Great job Deb!
