Runners

Decorating with area rug runners, or simply "runners," is one of the easiest ways to revitalize, update, improve and create a truly unique feel in the rooms in your home. Rug runners can turn a drab room into one full of color and shapes. Or you can use runners to create a focal point or define an area of interest. Rug runners can add warmth to otherwise cold tiles, stone or concrete floors. Runners will protect hardwood floor or wall-to-wall carpeting. And the right runner can tie together all of a room’s décor elements.

There is no official definition of what a "runner" is. The term is used to describe any rug in which the length is much longer than the width, usually by a ratio of three to one or greater. The most popular runner dimension is five to one, that is, the length is five times greater than the width. Runners are the second most popular shape for area rugs, next to standard rectangles.





Not all runners have squared-off ends. You can find some very attractive and interesting rug runners with rounded corners and some in the shape of an elongated oval. This gives you a tremendous amount of design options. Plus you will find that almost any style of traditionally shaped area rug has a complementary runner in the same colors and patterns. So no matter what the shape of the area you are decorating, you're sure to find a runner that will enhance the space.
