Start With Size
When searching for a rug, the most daunting task is the first step: what size?
Here, we break down the process room by room, making everything from size to placement a breeze.
Design Tips
The front legs of sofas and
chairs should sit on the carpet.
Leave at least 6” of carpet space
on each side of the furniture.
Make sure there is at least 1’ of
exposed floor between the carpet
and walls. This further anchors an
arrangement, rather than looking
like wall-to-wall carpet.
For a much larger room, opt for a
carpet that is large enough to contain
all four legs of sofas, chairs, coffee
tables or side tables.

Start with a neutral base, like a textured sisal or nubby jute. Next, layer a smaller rug, like a colorful flat weave, soft wool rug or genuine hide, on top.
The top rug should be roughly 2/3 the size of the base.
This is a great way to showcase smaller, special rugs that would otherwise look undersized.

Design Tips
Choose a carpet that is large enoughto fit all four chair legs, even when the chairs are pulled out.
Leave at least 24” of room between the backs of the chairs and the edges of the carpet.

Design Tips
From runners to large area carpets, there are multiple sizes and layouts that work in the bedroom.
The most common rule of thumb is to choose an carpet that extends at least a foot from either side of the bed.
For larger rooms or beds, consider a carpet that can also comfortably fit your nightstands.
