Looking to find a unique rug to make a statement in your home? We’ve got a few for you! Perfect for adding an unexpected element to an otherwise neutral room or playing up a decor theme, these artsy, funky, and one-of-a-kind rugs are a great way to express your personality or show off your creative side. Plus, because our rugs are interchangeable, you can easily swap them out when you’re ready for a change. Check out eight of our most unique rugs below, and get inspired to add one to your own home.  

1. Echeveria Black Rug

Striking and bold, this black and white rug is a modern take on a traditional floral design. At the center is a large, rose-shaped succulent surrounded by thorns, leaves, and smaller echeverias. The large design of this unique rug looks great in an 8×10 rug or 9×12 rug. Pair it with natural textures and greenery for a laid-back look. 

2. Absida Rainbow Rug

As unique as this rainbow rug is, it’s actually pretty much everywhere on Instagram. This bold and colorful rug can stand well on its own—or blend just as well against a variety of home decor styles, from eclectic to mid-century to minimalist.

3. Cherry Pink Rug

A fun addition for spring and summer, this cherry runner rug in pink and green will add a touch of whimsy to any room in your home. Pair the fruit rug with other pastel colors, like a light blue front door, for a fresh and cheery look. 

4. Zebra Black Rug

There’s nothing subtle about zebra print, and this rug is no exception. While the black and white animal print might seem intimidating, it’s a great way to add some intrigue to your space while sticking with a neutral color palette. Keep the rest of the decor neutral for a more subdued look, or play up the boldness of the rug’s pattern and incorporate bright-colored accents. 

5. Gumdrops Teal Rug

A colorful rug can instantly cheer up any space and our Gumdrop Teal Rug does just that. The teal, pink, purple, orange, and yellow geometric designs give this unique rug versatility, making it easy to pair with other bright colors. It works great as a kids room rug when complemented with a bright coral wall and golden yellow comforter. For a more grownup look, pair it with neutrals to keep the rug the focal point.

6. Naila Black Rug

A unique geometric rug pattern in black and white becomes even more interesting when it’s round. Pair it with an equally striking furniture for a funky feel and lots of greenery for some subtle hints of color. 

7. Bananas Yellow Rug

Need another fruit rug? Give your room a burst of happiness with this yellow banana rug. Place it in a neutral space, or—if you’re feeling adventurous— pair this with other bright decor elements, like a yellow bed frame, yellow accent wall, and orange linens to create a space that’s totally bananas! Literally. 

8. World Map Blue Rug

Place it in the entry as a fun surprise for guests when they enter your home or incorporate it into your nautical decor.

I purchased a 3×5 rug without pad. I realized I needed the pad. Can I purchase the pad separately.

I’ve signed up several times for your email to receive 10% off my first order,probably at least 30 times. I’ve yet to receive anything except your normal advertisements.
I’m disappointed because I have quite a few rugs that I would like to order,especially after receiving a 2.5 x8′ ruggable for our kitchen as a Christmas gift from my son and daughter-in-law. We absolutely love it and want to add to it as well as a round one for our newly redecorated master bathroom…..

I honestly don’t know what makes me happier, the finished product (gorgeous) or the shot with all the laundry on the floor (reality at its best). I also keep forgetting about Modsy, so I am happy to remember that too!
