Living Room Rugs: Style and Comfort in Every Step

What Size Rug for Living Room

General Guidelines:

  • For most living room, an 8' x 10' or 9' x 12' rug is a popular and effective choice.

     
  • For smaller spaces, a 6' x 9' rug can work well, especially with a "front legs on" or "all legs off" layout.

     
  • For larger, open-concept rooms, a 10' x 14' or larger rug is ideal to unify the entire seating area with an "all legs on" placement.

     

A good rule of thumb is to measure your space and use painter's tape to visualize the rug's size and placement before you buy. Remember, when in doubt, it's generally better to choose a rug that is slightly too large than one that is too small, as a small rug can make the space feel disjointed.

How to Place a Rug in a Living Room

Key Placement Rules:

All Legs On: The most common approach for a grand, polished look. All main furniture pieces (sofa, chairs, etc.) are placed entirely on the rug.

Front Legs On: A versatile option where the rug is large enough to be placed under the front legs of the sofa and surrounding chairs, connecting the seating area.

All Legs Off: Best for very small spaces or for defining a small area under a coffee table, with all furniture positioned around the rug.
