Retro Rugs

Retro rug designs will complement a vintage boho-chic style, old Hollywood glam, and trendy mid-century modern decor. Or, match them to your personal unique decor style.

When it comes to colour, retro style is all about bold, playful choices. Shades of green and blue are classic options that instantly set a nostalgic tone. Pair a green retro rug with earthy hues like mustard, burnt orange, or warm woods for a grounded 70s feel. A blue retro rug can also work beautifully with crisp whites, metallic accents, or natural textures to create a vibrant, balanced look.

Nothing says retro quite like the bold looks of the 60s and 70s. Think geometric shapes, psychedelic patterns, earthy palettes, and pops of colour that were made to stand out. A 60s rug often leans into playful geometrics and bold contrasts, while 70s rugs embrace earthy shades, shaggy textures, and funky shapes.

Our collection captures the best of both decades, from psychedelic prints that make a statement to soft, vintage-inspired runners with subtle retro flair. These designs bring groovy charm to modern living.

Retro Rug FAQs:

Retro rugs look best when paired with other retro accents. Pair a vibrantly coloured funky rug with rich wood and elegant gold accents within the space. Feel free to think outside the box and experiment with unique colour and pattern combinations. For example, pair a retro geometric rug with a wall collage of unique illustrations and shapes. Retro style is all about eccentric combos after all!

In the Living Room: Add a 185x275 cm retro accent rug beneath a vintage coffee table, or a large retro rug to define and complete the entire living area. A round retro rug with one to two vintage comfy chairs creates a perfect landing space or reading nook in an open concept living area. A retro runner rug in the hallway or entryway creates a welcoming feel for guests upon entering your home. No matter how you style your retro rug of choice, it’ll effortlessly add an eccentric vibe to your living room.

In the Dining Room: For a unique and eye-catching look, try pairing different shapes in your retro dining room. Place a rectangular rug beneath a round or oval-shaped dining room table to add an interesting dimension to the room.

In the Bedroom: You could add a retro rug the classic way by framing the bed with a rug underneath. Or, you could add a unique element by reimagining the possibilities. Add a round retro rug at the foot of your bed, or a runner in front of your dresser to highlight its vintage details and create a walkway. Retro designs call for creative styling!

In the Kitchen: Retro rugs bring warmth and playfulness into the heart of the home. Try a runner along galley-style kitchens to add pattern without overwhelming the space, or place a smaller retro rug in front of the sink for a pop of colour. Arched walls, tiled splashbacks, and vintage-inspired appliances all pair beautifully with bold retro prints, making your kitchen feel both practical and stylish.
