How to Choose the Perfect Rug Size for Your Living Room

The right rug can transform your living room — adding warmth, style, and definition to your space. But with so many sizes and shapes available, choosing the perfect one can feel overwhelming. Here’s our simple guide to finding a rug that’s both beautiful and a perfect fit for your home.

✨ Why Rug Size Matters

A rug that’s too small can make your space feel disjointed, while one that’s too large can overwhelm your furniture layout. The right size creates balance, frames your furniture, and ties the whole room together.

📏 Standard Living Room Rug Sizes

• Small (160x230cm) – Ideal for compact living areas or under a coffee table.
• Medium (200x300cm) – Works well in most standard living rooms, anchoring a sofa and chairs.
• Large (250x350cm) – Perfect for open-plan spaces or creating a luxurious, cohesive feel.
• Extra Large (300x400cm) – Best for grand rooms or where all furniture legs sit on the rug.

🛋️ Placement Tips

• All legs on: Creates a unified, formal look.
• Front legs on: Keeps seating anchored but more casual.
• Floating rug: Works for small spaces or accent areas.

🎯 Pro Styling Tips

• Choose lighter tones to make small rooms feel bigger.
• Layer rugs for texture and visual interest.
• Match rug shape to your room or furniture layout — round rugs soften square rooms.
