Hallway runner rugs are usually long pieces of rugs which cover the flooring of most hallways and complete the interior décor of most homes. Having a bare hallway might make the room seem odd, unless the whole house is on bare flooring. Here are a few tips on choosing the right hallway runner rug.
Consider the Size
The size of your hallway will dictate the size of the runner you will purchase. A long hallway with a small runner will seem very awkward, same as having a small hallway with a large runner. You may also think of whether you would like the runner to cover the whole surface or leave space on the widths.
Consider the Color
The color of the hall runner should ideally complement the colors of the doors, flooring, furniture and other accessories used in the hallway. Thus, take note of the color scheme in the hallway for you to get the best runner that will add to the décor theme of your home.
Consider the Thickness
Just how thick should the runner be? This will depend on the type of floor you home is made of. You will thus find that different hall runner thickness will sit well on different floor types.
Consider the Ease of Cleaning
Since hallway runners are placed in areas of high traffic, cleaning them is of utmost importance to maintain their functionality. Thus, go for runners that are easy for you to clean and maintain.
