Extra-large rug: the ideal option for structuring a large space and creating a real “living area”
In a large room, the floor becomes a decorative element in its own right. And it's often the floor that gives that impression of "emptiness" when it's bare. A very large rug changes everything: it ties the furniture together, naturally defines the living (or dining) area, and transforms a large surface into a comfortable, warm, and cohesive space.
If you have a spacious living room, an open-plan space, a large lounge with ample seating, or simply a home where you love to entertain, a very large rug is often the most visually appealing purchase. It instantly gives the room a more polished look, without requiring any redecoration. And to discover other large rug sizes, you can also browse our special collection .
Placement tip: the “everything in the zone” rule
For a truly high-end look, position your very large rug so that all the main seating (sofa and armchairs) is within the rug's area, at least with their front legs. The living room immediately appears larger, more cohesive, and above all, much more inviting.
Why choose a very large rug rather than a large “standard” rug?
A very large rug isn't a whim; it's a solution. In a large space, a rug that's too small can make the furniture look like it's floating. A very large rug avoids this effect and provides real structure.
- It unifies the decor : everything appears connected, more harmonious.
- It reduces the feeling of emptiness : the floor becomes warm, the room seems “furnished” even without overloading.
- It improves the acoustics : less echo, calmer atmosphere (valuable in large spaces).
- It increases comfort : you are more inclined to walk barefoot, you sit on the floor, you relax.
- It defines a clear zone : living room, reading corner, relaxation area… everything becomes legible.
The art of vastness: how a very large rug changes the atmosphere
A very large rug is not just bigger. It acts as a “stage” on the floor. It provides the frame, balances the room, and draws the eye towards the heart of the space.
In a contemporary interior, it adds softness and breaks up overly smooth surfaces. In a more traditional home, it modernizes and warms the space. In a minimalist setting, it adds texture without cluttering the room. And in a large family living room, it becomes a true living space.
Color tip: enlarge without cooling
If your room is already very bright and you're worried about a "cold" feel, choose a very large rug in warm tones (beige, sand, ecru, taupe). Conversely, if your decor is very colorful, a more neutral tone will help balance and calm the overall look.
What size should I choose for a very large rug?
The right size depends mainly on your goal: unifying the entire living room area, creating a dining zone, or structuring a large open-plan living space. Here are some simple guidelines that will really help when ordering.
| Configuration | Recommended format | Recommended investment | Effect achieved | Quick tip |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Large living room (sofa + 1-2 armchairs) | 200×290 cm | Front feet of the seats on the carpet | A more sedate and harmonious living room | Excellent choice for open rooms |
| Very large living room / several seating options | 240×340 cm (or close to it) | Main seating in the carpeted area | Lounge atmosphere, high-end feel | Check the traffic around |
| Large open-plan room (living room + dining room) | Two rugs or a very large format | One rug for the living room, one for the table (often the most visible) | Clear areas without partitions | The rug "defines" the spaces |
| Long living room (corridor type) | 240×340 cm or extended | Aligned with the axis of the sofa | Better balanced piece | Avoid a rug that is too narrow |
| Reading nook in a large room | 160×230 cm to 200×290 cm | Armchair + lamp + small table in the area | A cozy, “dedicated” space | Perfect for filling a large void |
Robustness and maintenance: a large format, but a simple life
A very large rug should remain easy to care for. The large size shouldn't become a burden: with a few regular steps, it will maintain its beautiful appearance for a long time.
- Vacuum regularly , crossing paths (even more so if you have pets).
- Treat stains quickly : gently dab with a clean cloth.
- Rotate the rug every 2–3 months to balance wear and light.
- Consider using a non-slip underlay : stability, comfort, and better distributed wear.
Don't do
Avoid soaking the rug completely, using harsh chemicals, and stiff brushes. Never pull on a loose thread; trim it flush with scissors. Also, avoid leaving the rug in direct sunlight all day; excessive light can damage its appearance over time.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is a very large rug useful if my living room is already furnished?
Yes, because it's not used to "fill" the space, but to bring things together . Even in a well-furnished living room, a very large rug brings coherence, warmth, and real structure to the floor.
How to avoid the "too imposing rug" effect?
Choose a fairly neutral color and leave a visible margin of flooring around it (when possible). Using tape as a template on the floor is very helpful before ordering.
What if my room is open (living room + dining room)?
The most legible approach is often to use two rugs to define two zones. If you prefer a large, unified look, choose a very large format and ensure clear circulation around it.
Is the underlay really necessary?
Yes, especially on smooth floors. It prevents the rug from slipping, improves comfort, and helps extend its lifespan.
Where can I find other large formats suitable for large spaces?
You can discover other sizes and styles in our special collection .
Embracing grandeur isn't just about choosing a large sofa or table. It's also about giving the floor a cohesive and inviting foundation. With a very large rug , your room gains comfort, elegance, and balance, effortlessly.

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.
