A rug is the cherry on top of a living room that transforms a house into a home. It infuses warmth and coziness into any space, making you feel instantly welcome. Thus, selecting the right color and texture for your home is of utmost importance.
In our search for the perfect rug, we've been taking major rug inspiration from the latest celebrity home brand: Ashley Tisdale's Rugs USA collection. Though you might remember Tisdale from her days acting and singing on the Disney Channel, her current projects couldn't be further from the candy-colored glitz of her youth. Nowadays, Tisdale spends her time at her Los Angeles-based design firm, Frenshe Interiors. The brand is inspired by the former-actress's vintage meets contemporary style. Her projects feature a lot of warm neutrals, natural materials, and sumptuous textures.
Rugs are a key part of making a home feel welcoming, so Rugs USA was a natural partner for Tisdale's Frenshe brand. 'I have always been obsessed with rugs – they’re the most important element when you’re designing a space. I'm so proud to be launching my first-ever rug collection with Rugs USA, which is inspired by many of my favorite rugs collected over the years,' she says.
Based on Tisdale's design philosophy, the collection leans neutral. In fact, the Frenshe Interiors founder swears by the shades for everything from a living room rug to an entryway rug. She states: 'I gravitate toward muted, warm shades because they create such a cozy, welcoming vibe in any space,' says Tisdale. Dimensional shades of cream, soft tans, taupes and moody hues will always be among the most versatile shades.

When it came to designing her Rugs USA collection, Tisdale decided that using texture in interior design was just as important as the color. She says: 'One of the most important things when choosing any rug: It should look good (of course!) but it also has to feel really good on the feet.' This ethos is clear in the variety of high quality materials and finishes used on the designs.
No matter the room, the colors, or the patterns already present, a neutral, textural rug can upgrade any space. The Frenshe Interiors x Rugs USA collaboration is a great place to start.
