Our Stylist Says
This runner is a great choice for adding subtle pattern and texture to a corridor or hallway, especially in spaces with neutral or minimalist decor. I love how its checkboard design offers a contemporary twist on traditional flatweaves, making it versatile enough to complement both modern and classic interiors. For styling, consider layering it over a light wooden floor as shown, and pair it with simple furnishings like wooden or upholstered pieces to keep the look cohesive. Practical tips include placing it in high-traffic areas to protect flooring and ensure it’s on a non-slip pad for safety. It’s understated but brings a touch of visual interest without overwhelming the space.
