Rug Size Finder

The right rug size for your room and furniture layout.

How this works

Leave 30 to 60 cm of bare floor around the rug. In living rooms the rug should be at least 15 cm wider than the sofa on each side with front legs on it. Under a dining table it should reach 60 cm past the edge so chairs stay on when pulled out. Under a bed it should show about 50 cm each side.
