Hello, My master bedroom is 13×16 and I just had hardwood floors installed. I would like to purchase an area rug for the room. I have a king size bed and was thinking about an 8×10 rug for under the bed. After placing all the furniture back in the room I discover my desk chair legs would be in the way of the rug. (no other place to put desk).
There are a few rules about pairing an area rug in a space with a couch. An area rug should be wider than the couch with a foot of space on either side showing. An area rug should have a minimum of 18" of space around where the bare floor shows. The front legs of the couch and any accent chairs should be on the rug.
A large rug provides the right proportion for a generously sized table. If you have a big enough dining area, consider leaving eight inches of the floor exposed around the rug to anchor the space. Shop 9' x 12' rugs Shop 10' x 14' rugs
For square coffee tables, you could get a 5’x5’ square rug for your 3’x3’ coffee table and a 6’x6’ rug if you have a 4.5’x4.5’ coffee table. In the case of round coffee tables, you need to measure its diameter. If you have a 3’ wide coffee table you could get a 4’x6’ square or 5’ round rug. But for wider tables such as
Put in middle of floor about a foot from the sofa with the ottoman in the center of that. It’s too small. It should be long enough to extend on either side of your sectional by 8-12” (more if you plan on adding chairs). For most sectionals minimum 8’x10’ rug or 9’x12’ depending on the length of the sectional.
I had brought home a larger 8×10 size in a different pattern and couldn’t get that large of a rug to work right in my smaller space. I ended up going with the pattern I loved, the 5×7. My sofa and loveseat face each other, but while both are off the rug by about 3 inches, the length of the rug is longer than my sofas at least.
