I love rugs and runners. They change the atmosphere of a space. But there are some areas of your home where they are more likely to get stained, say in a kitchen, beneath a dining table, in a hallway or if you have children around. Here come scandinavian plastic rugs. I do not want to get too practical but the fact that most of them are machine washable is definitely a plus to me. Here are some nice examples.
