Adventurous, daring, fearless – these are all adjectives that can be used to describe a person who chooses to go bold with their home design. Whether you embody these adjectives or you’re just looking for a way to invigorate your simple space, there’s simply no end to the number of unconventional modern area rug designs you can choose for your home. 

Bold modern area rugs are usually patterned, feature bright colors, or are produced in different shapes that draw you into their appearance. They can be the center of the room or hang on the wall, and they can also be the touch of detail that unites the design in your space.
