Understanding That for My Rug's size of dining room and sitting room
Time:June 13, 2011

The factor you will certainly want to consider is size. From small scatter rugs to palatial carpets, both the actual room size and the specific decorating scheme are critical in determining the size of the rug best suited to your needs.The possibilities of decorating with rugs are endless, and with the Persian design oriental rug selections, you can be assured of the very best in color, design, and quality for every room in your home.


Dining room rugs need to be sized for placement of the chairs and table as well as for the absolute measurements of the room. Take into account how much of the pattern will be hidden or obscured under the table. Obviously, a center medallion design would not be the ideal choice for this purpose.

A rug that is less than 7 or 7.5 feet wide will prove uncomfortably small. An 8' x 10' rug is the most common appropriate (minimum) size unless the room and the table are exceptionally large and then 9' x 12' or a 10' x 14' oriental rug might be better. The only time that a rug is the less than 7 feet wide might have to suffice is when the room itself is too confined for a 7 feet wide rug.


The reason for all of this is that even a relatively narrow table will be 42 inches wide. In order to avoid having the front legs of a chair on the rug and the back legs off, even when someone is seated at the table, even when someone is seated at the table. Two additional feet are always needed on both sides of table. This means that the rug must be wider by 2 feet for each chair on each side of the table, thus totaling to 7' - 9" (absolute minimum width). A typical 6' x 9' area rug will only be measuring 5' - 6" wide and 8' - 6" long and that is virtually too narrow for the table and chairs.


Living rooms can be a wide array of layouts and elements. Sofas, chairs, occasional tables, and lighting fixtures can be arranged in a single unified configuration or in separate seating or conversation areas. In either case, your rugs should play a key role in focusing and enhancing the placement of your other furnishings. In effect, they should function as the "foundation" of your design plan for any area in which they are used.

There is no right way and there is no wrong way. The bigger the rug, the more it will pull all of the elements of the room together. The smaller the rug, the less it will pull all of the elements of the room together. A larger rug will make the room look more appealing. A smaller rug will define social groupings within a room.
