Your foyer contains the opening notes to the song of your home through hints of color, tone and personality. There are a few things to consider when choosing a rug, and your own personal style preference is arguably at the top of the list. When it comes to your home’s entryway, you’re going to want to keep a few other factors in mind as you shop. Shape, size, material and appearance are all important criteria to apply to your options as you narrow down your choices for the best in show.
The most common sizes for entry ways / Foyers are 4’x6 to 6’x9’, but it depends on the size of the room of course, and the furnishings you have placed. It is common for people to ignore entryways, which is a mistake. This is the first impression of the house and should receive special attention.
The entryway is also the area where the thickness of the rug comes into play; where ever a door is opening over a rug, make sure the door has enough clearance; wooden doors inside a house can usually be shaved to create more room under them, but the ones opening towards the outside of the house are very difficult to shave.
Solid-colored rugs are a great way to make a subtle impact. There are a few ways you can accomplish this. Your walls may be simple with a solid-colored rug in a contrasting color to please the eye, or you can add a patterned rug in amazing vibrant colors.
Finally, no matter what kind of rug you end up choosing, it’s a good idea to stick a non-slip rug pad underneath if your entryway floor is a slick material such as hardwood or tile. A rug pad grips the rug in place and keeps it from shifting under foot traffic.

Not only was he super attentive while I was in the store, but his knowledge made the whole process effortless.

Imagine giving us a design you have seen, a sketch you did or choosing one of our designs, telling us the ideal size and your favorite colors, and having your dream rug created as the only one of its kind in the world. Even with the largest selection of fine rugs in Arizona, with over 5,000 rugs in stock, there are occasions that a client wants an unusual size, a specific design, and specific colors they love. Custom rugs are the perfect solution in such situations, and our custom rugs service is the best in the country.
The client wanted a beautiful Asian design in a very subtle rug; we designed this rug based on her instructions.
We made this subdued grey transitional rug for our client who wanted a transitional rug in the colors and size their space needed.
Our client loved this Native American design but those rugs only come in smaller sizes in flat weave rugs and the client wanted a room size rug in a plush hand-knotted weave.
