Choose the right size rug for your lounge

One question we get asked all the time is what size rug is best for a given space.  So, we thought we’d give you a quick guide to choosing the right size rug for your lounge.

Make sure you place at least the front legs of the lounge and or chairs on the rug to ground the space. Go for the largest rug you can in your space as this gives a luxe feel and actually makes the space appear larger.  However, don’t forget that you want the rug to look like a rug, so go for the largest option you can for that luxe feel, whilst still leaving a “border” so that the rug doesn’t look like wall to wall carpet.

Measure up carefully – check the dimensions of your lounge against your wish list and then mark out the area using tape, towels or folded sheets to give you a clear visual on how your chosen rug will look in your space.

Now, we all know that pictures speak volumes – so here’s our infographic info for you providing a little guidance on how different size rugs will look with various lounge options!
