Nothing transforms a room like a rug. The plush feel of a patterned carpet underfoot turns a space instantly cozy and welcoming.
Padma Lakshmi’s Rugs USA collection illustrates this universal truth. The TV presenter’s 17 designs for the brand are the perfect balance of beauty and sensibility. It prioritizes both softness and aesthetic appeal. Her collection is easily one of the best places to buy rugs.
‘I travel a lot for my work. When I come home, it’s my sanctuary where I seek solace and comfort,’ explains Padma of her method for choosing a rug. ‘It is where I want people to feel nurtured. These rugs help create that warmth and welcome.’
She adds: ‘With this Rugs USA collection in particular, I wanted to have something for everyone, while making sure the rugs still have personality. I’m somebody who lives on the floor, so what’s under my feet really matters to me, and now I get to design that.’
