A rug, like a work of art, should awaken something in you. It should be the last clear impression you have when you leave your house, and the first thing you want to see when you walk in the door. Because, whether you realize or not, as soon as you enter a room your eyes focus on the floor first, and then shift upward. That’s why a rug is an important part of every room–it can create the mood.
