Soften Your Space With a 3' x 5' Dorm Rug
You can deliver big style to a very small space with a 3' x 5' dorm rug from Pottery Barn Teen. Plush, cozy fibers and fashionable design styles combine to make the rugs in this collection ones that will be a soft and inviting addition to your space for years to come. Make them a fun way to infuse your personality into a basic dorm or apartment and make your new space feel more like home.
Choosing Your 3' x 5' Rug
With so many different rugs offered within this stylish collection, determining which one will be the foundation of your room design requires looking at a few key details, such as:
- Color & Pattern: Begin browsing the many options, paying attention to both the color and pattern of the area rug. The rug will help define the overall design style of your room, as well as the color scheme, so you'll want it to reflect your personal style. Go for a modern look with a black 3' x 5'rug, or choose a patterned or colorful rug to elevate your dorm's style.
- Design Details: Once you find a couple of options that catch your eye, take a closer look at the little details of the design style, including whether or not the rug offers a border that defines the perimeter of the space, if there's fringe along the edges and more.
- Materials: Before you can make your final choice, it's important to look at the materials used to make the rug. This is also a fantastic opportunity to look at the care instructions for the area rug, as some are even machine-washable for ultimate convenience.
- Pile: The pile of the rug refers to the height of the rug and how plush the fibers are. Lower-pile rugs are thinner and not as comfortable, but allow doors to pass over them with ease. Higher-pile rugs provide softer comfort but they can get in the way of doors and nearby furnishings. Considering the layout of your dorm or apartment will help you select the proper pile.
After you experience the indulgent comfort of your 3' x 5' dorm rug for yourself, you'll turn to Pottery Barn Teen for all your comfy and cozy additions. Introduce even more bold textiles by shopping for colorful bedding sets, window coverings, plush accent chairs and even plush throw blankets. With durability like this, these rugs will likely stay with you as you transition from first dorm to apartment and even to your first home.
