How to Choose the Perfect Play Mat for Your Home – Matching Colours, Patterns, and Styles with Your Décor

A play mat is more than just a practical addition to your home—it’s a space where your little one will play, learn, and grow. While safety and comfort are key considerations, you don’t have to compromise on style. With the right choice, a play mat can seamlessly blend into your home décor, enhancing both functionality and aesthetics. Here’s how to choose the perfect FOLDiMATS play mat to match your interior style.

1. Consider Your Home’s Colour Scheme

Your FOLDiMATS play mat doesn’t have to clash with your home’s existing palette. Look at the dominant colours in your space and choose a play mat that complements them. If your home has a neutral aesthetic, opt for our soft grey Confetti play mat, beige Palm play mat, or a pastel for a subtle and elegant look like our Botanical or Rainbow play mats. If you prefer a bolder, more vibrant home, go for playmats with bright colours or playful designs that add a pop of personality to your space like our Scandi or Safari FOLDiMATS.

2. Match the Style of Your Décor

Different play mat designs suit different home styles. Here’s how you can match yours:

  • Minimalist Homes – Stick to simple, muted tones or monochrome patterns for a sleek and understated look. Check out our Dotty or Scallop designs.
  • Scandi-Style Interiors – Opt for geometric prints, soft pastel shades, or natural textures that blend seamlessly with wooden flooring and neutral furnishings.
  • Bohemian or Rustic Spaces – Earthy tones, tribal prints, or woven-inspired patterns work well in relaxed, cosy environments.
  • Modern Homes – Choose contemporary patterns with clean lines and stylish finishes.
  • Classic or Traditional Homes – Soft florals, subtle damask prints, or elegant neutral shades complement more refined spaces.

3. Opt for a Reversible Design

All our FOLDiMATS are reversible play mats offering versatility, giving you two design options in one. You can switch between a playful pattern for your child’s activities and a more neutral design to maintain a sophisticated look when guests come over. This is particularly useful in shared living spaces where you want the playmat to blend in.

5. Functionality Meets Aesthetic Appeal

Beyond looks, our FOLDiMATS are practical and durable. The benefits include:

  • Easy-to-clean materials – Wipeable surfaces that resist spills and stains.
  • Safe and non-toxic materials – Ensuring your mat is made from high-quality, baby-safe materials.
  • Foldable and space-saving designs – Ideal for storing away when not in use.

At FOLDiMATS, we believe that playmats should be both stylish and functional. Our range of reversible, cushioned, and non-toxic playmats are designed to complement any home while providing a safe and comfortable space for your little one.
