Large kitchen rug: combine comfort and aesthetics in your culinary space
A large kitchen rug instantly transforms the look of a room: it connects the sink, countertop, and cooking area into a single, comfortable strip. The generous surface area captures splashes, cushions when standing, and protects the floor from micro-scratches caused by repeated movement. In an open-plan kitchen, a large kitchen rug creates a visual island that organizes the space without creating partitions. In a large, closed-off kitchen, it lengthens the perspective and softens the acoustics. The result? A warmer atmosphere, stable support, and a smooth flow of movement from morning to night. 🍽️✨
For the effect to be successful, it's not just the length that matters. The width must allow you to have both feet firmly placed on the material when you stand in front of the worktop, without extending into the door axis or under the drawers. A non-slip sole (TPR/rubber) guarantees stability, while braided or heat-sealed edges prevent curling. In terms of pattern, longitudinal lines stretch the piece, micro-patterns better hide small marks, and a textured plain brings a discreet elegance.
💡 Measure without making mistakes
Add up your active areas: sink (70–90 cm) + cutout (60–90 cm) + cooking (60–90 cm). Remove 10–15 cm of margin on each side to avoid blocking doors and baseboards. This will give you the ideal length for your large kitchen rug .
The benefits that matter every day
- Extended surface : a protective strip that follows your movements, from rinsing to cooking.
- Long-lasting comfort : adapted density, soft walking, reduced fatigue during long preparations.
- Structuring aesthetics : elongated perspective, readable and warmer room.
- Stability : the sole remains anchored, even on shiny tiles.
- Easy maintenance : quick wipe or wash depending on the material, dry flat.
| Configuration | Recommended size | Installation mark | Visual effect | Material advice |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Large linear | 70×240–300 cm | Parallel to the furniture, 2–3 cm of air along the baseboards | Smooth trajectory, stretched kitchen | Woven vinyl for express wiping |
| Facing the island | 80×200–260 cm | Aligned with the song of the island | Clean outline, anchored area | Dense polyester for softness |
| Generous U or L | 70–80×200–240 cm (x2) | Two strips, a 5 cm gap at the corners | Visual rhythm, increased security | Flat weave polypropylene, very stable |
| Open kitchen | 80×260–320 cm | Centered on the sink-cooking axis | Demarcated culinary area without partitions | Textured plain: chic and easy to combine |
💡 Palette that works everywhere
Ice blue + powder pink for a contemporary softness. Also try Sand + Sage + Graphite : natural, legible, soothing around a large, plain, textured kitchen rug .
Materials, feel and care
Woven vinyl : stain-resistant surface, wipes clean in seconds, colorfast. Smooth PVC : ultra-practical for big splashes, dries instantly. Flat-weave polypropylene : intensive use, impeccable hold, basic maintenance. Dense polyester : pleasantly soft underfoot, wash on a short cycle (30–40°C) then dry flat. In all cases, limit the use of aggressive products: a pH-neutral soap is sufficient, rinse lightly and let the air circulate.
Slate gray with long lines
Visually lengthens the room, stunning with white fronts and black handles. Ultra-fast wipe down after use.
Comfort heathered mocha
Soft texture, forgiving to small marks, perfect with walnut and brass. Spot wash on a short cycle.
Easy maintenance, durable finish
Vacuum once or twice a week with a hard floor nozzle. After sauce, coffee, or oil, dab immediately, wipe with a warm sponge and mild soap, rinse lightly, and dry flat. On textiles, Fuller's earth works wonders against grease: leave for 20 minutes, vacuum, then wash if necessary. To even out light and traffic, rotate the large kitchen rug 180° every 2–3 months.
⛔ Don'ts
- Do not wedge the carpet under the feet of a large household appliance: risk of marks and slipping when pulled.
- Avoid waxing/polishing the floor before installation: adhesion drops significantly.
- No need to overlap the mats: the double thickness undulates and becomes a crumb trap.
- Do not exceed 40°C when washing textiles: colors and soles are better preserved.

Mark out the future footprint with tape, check the opening of doors and drawers, then choose the material according to your cooking rhythm. To browse other lengths and coordinated finishes, explore the Kitchen Rug collection and create a cohesive set around your large kitchen rug . 🧑🍳
70–80 cm for a deep countertop: your feet stay on the carpet without encroaching under the furniture. In front of the island, 80 cm provides real comfort.
Unroll flat for 30 minutes, reverse the roll for 5 minutes if necessary, and place on a dry floor. Two thin non-slip strips at the ends are sufficient.
Yes, with a thin, breathable sole. Increase the temperature gradually and check the grip for the first few hours.
Ok for flat models without fringes: flatten the edges well and avoid high thresholds nearby.
A textured solid or fine heather calms the scene. Keep the colored facades as the main accent and let the rug structure the space.
Rug Size Guide
Select the perfect size for your rug
A well-sized rug transforms a space: it anchors furniture, streamlines circulation, and enhances ambiance. Choosing the right size depends largely on the room, the furniture, and the space required. Use this simple, visual guide to make a confident decision.
It is essential to consider the space where the rug will be placed.
In the living room
- 2-3 seater sofa → 160×230 cm minimum. Ideal: 200×300 cm if the room allows it.
- Aim for at least the front two legs of the sofa on the carpet. Leave 20–30 cm of air space from the walls.
- In a corner configuration, go wide: the rug should extend 15–25 cm beyond the coffee table all around.
In the dining room
- Add ~60cm around the table to pull out the chairs without snagging.
- Table 160×90 → rug ~240×340 ; table Ø120 → rug Ø200 (if round, for information).
- Prefer a flat weave (chairs that slide better).
In the room
- Bed 140/160 → carpet 200×290 (or 160×230 at the foot of the bed).
- Alternative small pieces : two 50×160 runners on each side.
- Visual comfort: 60–70 cm overhang on the bed exit side.
Entrance & hallway
- Measure the net width and leave 5–10 cm of air on each side.
- Practical formats: 45×115 , 40×120 , 50×160 , 80×120 depending on the length.
- Add a non-slip rug pad for safety.

What about round rugs?
Diameter replaces length/width. Choose Ø according to the central unit:
- Bedroom or reading corner : Ø120–Ø160 under an armchair or at the foot of the bed.
- Round table : table Ø120 → ideal rug Ø200 (clearance of ~40 cm all around the chairs).
- Entrance : Ø90–Ø120 for a soft visual welcome, without obstructing the door opening.
How to measure quickly and well
The kraft (or ribbon) template
Cut out a rectangle to the target dimensions (or trace with painter's tape ) and live with it for 24 hours. Check: circulation, alignment with furniture, door/drawer clearances.
Simple rules
- Living room : 20–30 cm of air on the walls, two feet in front of the seats on the carpet.
- Dining room : +60 cm minimum all around the table.
- Bedroom : 60–70 cm overhang on the bed exit side or two 50×160 runners.
Carpet too small (“floating” effect), place a long pile under low doors (friction), forget the non-slip underlay, center it on the room instead of the living area.
This rug size guide helps you quickly select the right size for each room. Need personalized advice? Measure your area, note the width of your key pieces of furniture, and compare with the table above.
Adjust the size to the surface area of the room
Small room (< 12 m²)
Choose a rug that leaves the baseboards free (edge 20–30 cm from the wall) to avoid the “wall-to-wall” effect that visually shrinks. A 120x160 or 140x200 works well, or two 50x160 runners in “Japanese steps” for the bedroom.
Medium room (12–20 m²)
The 160×230 is a versatile standard for living rooms and bedrooms. If you have generous furnishings (corner sofa, sideboard), move up to the 200×300 to maintain balanced proportions.
Large room (> 20 m²)
Aim for a large size (200x300 or 240x340 depending on the collection) to anchor the area . In an open living room, a large rug “reads” the seating and zones things in without partitioning.
Shapes & proportions (rect., square, round, oval)
- Rectangular : the easiest to align with furniture (sofas, beds, rectangular tables). A natural choice if the room is elongated.
- Square : Perfect for a square room or a conversation area with two armchairs and a square coffee table.
- Round : softens very straight architecture, enhances round tables and reading corners.
- Oval : excellent in a wide hallway or dining room with an oval table, as it follows the flow without sharp corners.
Visual tip : Always align one side of the rug with a strong axis (edge of the sofa, edge of the bed, edge of the table). This “vanishing line” immediately calms the composition.
Living room configurations (concrete cases)
Straight sofa + 1 armchair
Objective : Front legs of the sofa + base of the armchair on the carpet. Typical size: 160×230 (compact living room) or 200×300 (standard living room).
Corner sofa (L)
Choose a rug that extends 15–25 cm beyond the coffee table and lean towards 200x300 to avoid the cramped effect under the chaise longue.
Two sofas facing each other
Choose a large size (200x300) so that each seat has at least the front legs on it. A rug that is too small “opens” a gap in the center.
Open space & zoning
In an open space, the rug serves as a functional signal : a large 240x340 rug under the living room, a 200x300 rug under the table, and an 80x240 runner to guide traffic. Keep at least 15 cm between the edge of the rug and the main passageway.
Round, rectangular or extendable table?
| Table shape | Table dimensions | Recommended carpet | Clearance around |
|---|---|---|---|
| Rectangular | 140×80 | 200×290 | ~60 cm for chairs |
| Rectangular | 160×90 | 240×340 | ~60 cm |
| Rectangular | 180×90 | 240×340 (or 250×350) | ~60 cm |
| Round | Ø100 | Ø180 | ~40–50 cm |
| Round | Ø120 | Ø200 | ~40–60 cm |
| Stretchable | 160→200 | 240×340 | ~60 cm (open position) |
Measure the open position of extendable tables and size your rug accordingly.
Bedroom: bed, bench and runners
- Rug under bed bench : add 20–30 cm on each side of the bench to avoid the “sitting on the edge” impression.
- Two runners : 50×160 or 60×180, placed ~10 cm from the bed, aligned at the bedside.
- Small bedroom : prefer at the foot of the bed (160×230) rather than “full under the bed”, to keep breathing space on the sides.
Corridors & Stairs
Measure the finished width, deduct 5–10 cm from each side. For the length, leave 10–15 cm free before the threshold and door. Use a non-slip underlay : essential in high-traffic areas.
Thickness, doors & maintenance
- Low doors : Beware of long-pile rugs (risk of friction). A flat weave is safer near openings.
- Maintenance : the larger the rug, the more crumbs and dust it will “eat” — plan to vacuum regularly (brush OFF on loop pile).
- Carpet underlay : improves stability, comfort and longevity (less wear from sliding).
Quick FAQ
How to convert cm ↔ inches? 1 inch = 2.54 cm. Divide cm by 2.54 to get inches (e.g. 200 cm ≈ 78.74 in).
My living room feels empty despite a large sofa. What should I do? Go from 160x230 to 200x300 or add a perpendicular runner to close off the area.
A square rug in a rectangular living room? Yes, if you create a separate reading corner (armchair + floor lamp + square coffee table).
Round table on a rectangular rug? Possible, but demanding: keep at least 30–40 cm of air space on each side of the rectangle for a balanced effect.
Can you layer two rugs? Yes, to “zone” a space. Large neutral base + smaller pattern on top (10–20 cm overlap).

Frequently asked questions
Here are some of the most common questions we get asked. If you cannot find what you are looking for, do not hesitate to contact us.
How do I choose the size of my rug?
The size of your rug depends on the room and the layout of your furniture. For a living room, for example, a large rug under which all the furniture fits gives a feeling of space. A smaller rug can define a space, such as a conversation area.
Do the photos online reflect the actual color of the rug?
We do our best to make colors as accurate as possible. However, shades may vary depending on screens and brightness settings.
How do I maintain my carpet?
Maintenance depends on the carpet material . Generally, a vacuum cleaner without a rotating brush used regularly and occasional professional cleaning are recommended.
Do you ship internationally?
Yes, we ship to many countries around the world. Shipping costs and times may vary depending on destination.
What is the return policy?
You have 14 days after receipt to return your rug if it does not suit you. Make sure it is in its original condition and see our "Return Policy" page for more details.
Are the rugs pet resistant?
Our rugs are durable, but their resistance to animals depends on the material. Some rugs are more suitable for homes with pets. See product description for more information.
