    Escher’s tangled steps are like a metaphor for my attempts to lay a rug in a room with slanted walls: no matter what I do, a crooked corner always remains. I was already frustrated until I realized it wasn’t just my hands that were at fault, but also the quality of the rug. Searching for solutions, I turned to RugsUSA and found feedback from people who had encountered similar problems. Their experiences helped me understand how to choose a rug that won’t let me down, even if the space itself feels like a puzzle.
