I'm having a hard time picking a rug that looks good in my dining room. Having already returned one, I no longer trust my own judgment. Please get me out of my design rut...suggest a rug in the $600 range (8x12) that would look good! Pics are here. The style of the house is modern/Japanese. There will be some modern art on the walls (which has neutral tones), which is not pictured.

Frame-wise (or not) what's the best way to display posters like these (sized 12 x 18)? I just bought three of them and it feels wrong just to put push pins through them.
