Start with Function

Before diving into styles and colors, consider where the rug will go. Each room has its own practical needs, and choosing the right material and size starts with understanding the function.

  • Livingroom: Opt for durable materials and a generous size that anchors the entire seating area. A larger rug helps define the space and brings a cohesive feel.
  • Dining Area: Choose a rug large enough for all chairs to stay on it, even when pulled out. Opt for durable, easy-to-clean materials that handle spills well.
  • Bedroom: Soft, plush rugs are ideal here – they add warmth and comfort, especially under bare feet in the morning.

Choosing a rug that suits the room’s function ensures both style and practicality.

Choose the right material

When choosing a rug, the material is just as important as the style or size. The right fiber determines how your rug feels underfoot, how well it holds up to daily life, and even how easy it is to clean. Here’s a breakdown of the most common rug materials and what you should know before buying.

WOOL

Why it’s great: Wool is one of the most durable natural fibers. It’s naturally stain-resistant, insulating, and wonderfully soft underfoot. Wool rugs bounce back easily, even in high-traffic areas, making them perfect for living rooms, hallways, dining areas and other busy spaces.

Best for: High-traffic areas like living rooms, entryways, and family rooms.

VISCOSE

Why it’s great: Both silk and viscose (a silk-like fiber) offer a beautiful sheen and soft texture. These rugs look luxurious and add elegance to any room. But they are delicate, showing wear and stains more easily.

Best for: Low-traffic areas like bedrooms or formal living rooms.

Choose the right Rug size: A Room-by-Room Guide

When it comes to rugs, size is everything. A rug that’s too small can make even the most stylish room feel disjointed and unfinished, while the right size instantly grounds the space and ties everything together. Here’s how to choose the perfect rug size for every room in your home.


Living Room

In the living room, the rug should anchor the seating area and help define the space.

  • All legs on: For a large, open-concept living room, choose a rug big enough to fit all furniture legs on top.
  • Front legs only: A more common layout uses a rug that fits just the front legs of your sofa and chairs.

Dining Area

When placing a rug under the dining table, make sure it’s large enough for the chairs to stay on the rug even when pulled out. This ensures comfort, balance, and a polished look while dining. For the best fit, choose a rug that extends about 70 cm (around 27 inches) beyond the edges of the table on all sides.

Bedroom

When choosing a rug for the bedroom, make sure it’s large enough to frame the bed beautifully and provide comfort underfoot. Ideally, the rug should extend at least 60–70 cm (about 24–27 inches) beyond the sides and foot of the bed. This creates a cozy, balanced look while ensuring you step onto a soft surface when getting in and out of bed.
