Purity and tradition with our white Berber rug
Bright, graphic, and reassuring: the white Berber rug is the natural ally of a welcoming living room. Its light base amplifies daylight, and its authentic weave, inspired by Atlas weaving, instantly warms spaces. With its geometric patterns (diamonds, broken lines, hatching), the white Berber rug provides a soft structure that organizes the space without weighing it down. Under a sofa, around a coffee table, or in an open-plan room, it creates a welcoming island and clarifies circulation.
Why choose a white Berber rug over a classic plain rug? For its controlled contrast . The ecru or ivory background captures the light, the dark lines create a soothing grid, and everything remains easy to combine. Light wood, smoked oak, black metal, washed linen, white ceramics: everything naturally interacts with this visual language. And in terms of sensations, its soft fiber softens the acoustics and provides a comforting touch on a daily basis.
Green tip
To avoid the "too white" effect, repeat the shade of the white Berber rug on a maximum of two accessories (ecru cushion + ivory throw). The palette remains bright and the overall effect becomes more cohesive.
Berber design: a readable and warm grammar
Berber design favors simple, rhythmic symbols. On a white Berber rug , these lines can be read from a distance and are closer to natural materials: rattan, rope, wool, matte stone. The Beni Ouarain diamond-patterned versions create a calm rhythm, the hatching offers visual texture, and the colorful touches in the Azilal style infuse a discreet energy. Choose the design according to the rug's role: a soft focal point, a warming texture, or a graphic accent to frame a generous volume.
| White Berber carpet pattern | Visual effect | Goes with | To be preferred if |
|---|---|---|---|
| Beni Ouarain Diamonds | Regular grid, serene atmosphere | Light sofa, blond oak | Minimal living room to structure |
| Hatched lines | Rich texture, discreet relief | White ceramic, linen | Large living room to warm up |
| Azilal softened | Lively touches, controlled energy | Black metal, graphic posters | Bright room to energize |
| Tone-on-tone lines | Smooth, ultra-easy reading | Dark wood, cognac leather | Decor already loaded with textures |
Materials, thickness and hold
The feel comes from the density and pile type . A dense short pile (10–14 mm) feels softer and more durable than a long but loose pile. A tight loop pile maintains an impeccable flatness and tolerates foot traffic better. For an easy-to-use white Berber rug , aim for a 12–16 mm pile in loop or short pile: easy maintenance, discreet reflections, readable pattern. Wool provides warmth and shape memory; polypropylene and polyester make maintenance easier and stabilize the colors, useful with children and pets.
Blue tip
Dark or heavily veined floor? Choose a mottled white Berber rug (ecru/greige): reading is calmer, micro-marks are less visible between two vacuums.
Size and placement: simple guidelines
The right size avoids the "floating rug" effect. The white Berber rug should anchor the island while allowing the room to breathe. Use these concrete guidelines and then adjust according to your plan.
| Configuration | Recommended size | Investment | Effect obtained | Quick tip |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2-seater sofa | 160×230 cm | In front of the sofa | Clear reading, smooth passage | 10–15 cm of air at the baseboards |
| 3-seater sofa | 200×300 cm | Front feet on the mat | Friendly and stable island | Table protruding 15–25 cm |
| Corner living room | 240×340 cm | Parallel to the two branches | Unified volume | Center aligned in the middle of the sofa |
| Reading corner | Ø 120–150 cm | Under armchair + lamp | Cozy landmark | Non-slip underlay |
Maintaining a light-colored carpet: an effective method
A white Berber rug stays bright with a short but regular routine. Vacuum 1–2×/week with a soft brush, crossing the strokes to aerate the fibers and remove dark dust. In case of stains, dab immediately: start with lukewarm water + a drop of neutral pH soap, rinse by dabbing, then let air dry. Avoid flooding the fiber, especially wool. To revive the shine between cleanings, sprinkle lightly with baking soda, let it sit, and vacuum slowly. Turn the rug every 2–3 months to balance light and wear. A non-slip rug pad improves grip, flatness, and vacuuming efficiency.
Don'ts
No bleach or chlorinated stain removers: they yellow whites. Do not rub a stain vigorously: you will felt the fiber and spread the pigment. Avoid steaming viscose and prolonged baths on wool. Do not place a white Berber rug on a freshly oiled or waxed floor. Do not fold a damp rug: roll it up and let it dry flat, away from a direct heat source.
Two atmospheres to adopt it
Bright Scandi
White diamond-patterned Berber rug , ecru sofa, blond oak, brushed brass: visually enlarged volume, soft sound, refined reading.
Cozy industrial
White hatched Berber carpet , black metal, walnut, cognac leather: chic contrast, warmed material, well-anchored island.
Key takeaways
- The white Berber rug brightens the room, structures the island and softens the acoustics.
- Choose the pattern according to the desired effect: diamonds for regularity, hatching for texture, Azilal for energy.
- Choose a short, dense pile or a tight curl for long-lasting hold and quick maintenance.
- Repeat the rug color on up to two pieces for a natural harmony.
- A carpet underlay is essential on smooth floors: safety, flatness, comfort.
With gentle, even vacuuming and a lightly mottled pattern, maintenance is simple. Work quickly on stains: dab, dab rinse, air dry.
Yes, at moderate temperatures. Use a breathable rug pad and avoid thick layers that hinder heat diffusion.
Opt for a tight loop or a short, mottled pile: less visible hairs, faster maintenance. Use a spot adhesive brush between two vacuums.
200×300 cm with the front legs on the carpet and a table extending 15–25 cm all around for a neat island.
As with all light-colored fabrics, avoid prolonged direct exposure. Curtaining and rotating the fabric every three months will maintain a uniform color.
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.
