1. Measure Your Space

Measure the dimensions of the room or specific area where you plan to place the rug. Use a tape measure to record the length and width of the space.

2. Leave Space Around the Edges

Aim for leaving a consistent border of flooring around the rug's edges. A typical recommendation is to leave about 18 to 24 inches of flooring exposed on all sides of the rug.

3. Consider Furniture Placement

If the rug is for a living room or seating area, consider how your furniture will be arranged on or around the rug. The front legs of the furniture should typically rest on the rug, creating a cohesive look.

4. Prioritize Key Furniture

If you can't fit all furniture legs on the rug, prioritize the primary or anchor pieces of furniture. For instance, ensure the front legs of the sofa and chairs are on the rug in a living room.

5. Room Shape and Rug Shape

Consider the shape of your room and how it aligns with the shape of the rug. Rectangular rooms often work well with rectangular rugs, while round rooms or conversation areas might benefit from a circular rug via custom order

6. Bedroom Considerations

In a bedroom, choose a rug that extends at least 18 to 24 inches beyond the sides of the bed, allowing for a comfortable step on the rug when getting in and out of bed.

7. Hallways and Runners

For hallways or narrow spaces, choose a runner rug that fits the length of the area, leaving an equal amount of space on either side.

8. Dining Room Rugs

In a dining room, ensure the rug is large enough to accommodate the dining table and chairs, even when the chairs are pulled out.
