Nautical Rugs

What defines a proper nautical rug?

Stripes, knots, anchors and compass roses - nautical is the most codified coastal style, and these printed designs honor the flag code: navy, white, red, brass.

A nautical runner in a hallway reads instantly ship-shape; compass rounds suit offices. Softer shores live in beach & coastal; the deep end in ocean rugs.

Nautical vs coastal?

Nautical is the sailors uniform - graphic, disciplined; coastal is the beach house - relaxed, sandy.

Do stripes widen a room?

Cross-wise stripes widen, lengthwise stripes stretch - aim the illusion where you need it.

Classic navy or weathered palette?

Crisp navy-white for tailored rooms; faded blues for the lived-in look.
