Why the Stanton Tori Rug in Raindrop is My New Favorite Design Element
As an interior designer with a love for maximalism, I know the power of a well-chosen rug to transform a room. When I recently moved into a leased apartment, I wanted something that was not only stylish but also quick and easy to source—without sacrificing quality. That’s where Stanton Carpet came in, and their Tori rug in Raindrop became the perfect fit for my bedroom.
Quality That Lasts
The Tori rug, like all Stanton rugs, is crafted with care. Hand-loomed and made from 100% New Zealand wool, this rug is built to last. Wool is a naturally durable fiber, and the Tori rug’s thick, soft texture speaks to that quality. In my experience, New Zealand wool is not only luxurious underfoot but also remarkably long-lasting. Despite the foot traffic my bedroom sees, the rug still looks as fresh as the day I installed it.
One of the great things about wool is its natural resistance to dirt and soiling. This makes it incredibly easy to maintain—perfect for someone like me who wants beauty without the stress of constant upkeep. I’ve always trusted Stanton rugs for my clients’ homes, and I was thrilled to bring that same quality into my own space.
Ease of Install and Variety
What made this experience even better was how seamless the installation process was. Because Stanton offers a wide variety of stocked sizes, from 6×9 to 10×14, I didn’t have to wait for a custom order. The standard size of the Tori rug fit my bedroom perfectly, and I had it in place in no time. For anyone designing a space on a tight timeline, the ease of access to these stocked rugs is a game-changer.
The variety Stanton offers is another reason I keep coming back. The Tori rug is just one of more than a dozen patterns and colorways available. Whether you’re looking for something bold like I did with the Raindrop colorway, or something more neutral, there’s a Stanton rug for every taste and style.
Joy in Design
I can’t emphasize enough the joy this rug has brought to my home. The Tori rug in Raindrop not only complements my maximalist aesthetic but also ties together the other design elements in my bedroom—from the artwork to the upholstered furniture to the luxurious linens. It’s become the focal point of the space, and every time I walk into the room, I feel that sense of completeness only great design can bring.
As a designer, I’ve always recommended Stanton rugs to my clients for their quality, style, and durability. Now, having experienced it in my own home, I can confidently say it’s one of the best design decisions I’ve made for myself.
