The best rugs to decorate your house this winter

This year, rug trends are not only concerned with aesthetics but are also prioritizing comfort, natural materials and handcrafting details. So, if you’re looking for a way to put a different spin on your home décor with a good rug which will add style and character as well as warmth, you really must have a look at what’s trending this 2024-2025 autumn-winter season. Make a note, because we’re telling you about it now along with the latest collections by Gancedo, a company always at the forefront of design and quality.

Natural materials and handcrafted textures

The use of natural materials and opting for handcrafting are two of the biggest trends dominating interior design. This winter, wool, jute and viscose rugs are going centre stage not only because of their softness and insulating properties, but also thanks to their rustic, organic aesthetic that links us to nature.

A perfect example of this trend is the Gancedo Khasi collection. Woven on handlooms, these rugs are inspired by fleecy fabrics and call to mind jute rugs, albeit with the softness of wool. What’s more, their neutral tones such as camel and ecru provide a cosy, laid-back feel which mixes and matches perfectly with Nordic or Boho style, proving the perfect contrast for modern interiors.

Neutral and ochre shades

For yet another winter, neutral and ochre tones win out, lending tranquillity and helping create congenial surroundings. Colours such as beige, taupe, light grey and camel take centre stage, as they are easy to mix and match, creating an elegant atmosphere.

The Gancedo Ondulato collection takes the same line with its wide array of colours ranging from classic neutrals to bolder tones such as terracotta and petrol blue. These rugs feature a plain, elegant design, also standing out on account of their velvety corduroy-effect texture, ideal for those wishing to add a layer of comfort without abandoning the latest fashion.

Simple designs and abstract patterns

For those who prefer a clean, modern look, rugs featuring geometrical, abstract, minimalist patterns are an excellent option.

The Gancedo Romanum collection perfectly reflects this trend with its Roma model. With a pattern combining straight lines and subtle curves, this rug evokes the urban layout of an ancient Roman city. Available in shades of ochre and beige, it’s ideal for modern decorating schemes. Additionally, being manufactured in viscose and wool ensures that this rug will provide a pleasant feeling of softness and warmth, as well as pure refinement.

Stripes, a timeless pattern

Another outstanding trend this winter is the use of stripes and organic patterns, which break up the monotony of plain colours, filling the room with energy. What’s more, stripes are extremely versatile, since they can add an amusing touch or even bolster a look of understated refinement, depending on their thickness and colourways.

The Striscie rug, also from the Romanum collection, is a great example of this type of design. It toys with an arrangement of uneven stripes, which lends the rug body and flow. The combination of neutral and ochre shades, such as beige, brown and camel, turns it into an extremely warm and welcoming piece, ideal for any room in the house. What’s more, its hardwearing polyester material permits its use in spaces with a high footfall, such as the dining-room or work areas.

Textures are in

Patterns with curves, flawed lines and sculptural details are gaining in popularity, as they add a sophisticated, artistic touch to any space. These rugs are usually the focal point of the room and stand out on account of their unique patterns and voluminous texture.

The Gancedo Volute rug is an example of how a piece can transform a space.  Inspired by Roman capitals and columns, its pattern combines the classic with the contemporary, creating imperfect curves and irregular lines which draw the eye without being garish. This rug, manufactured in polyester, is hardwearing and soft to the touch, perfect for those seeking a modern design with a historical nod. In addition, its easy maintenance makes it a practical choice without sacrificing any stylishness.
