Quick questions

Rug-size answers

What size rug should go under a living-room sofa?

For a front-legs-on layout, extend the rug at least 6 to 8 inches beyond each sofa side and leave 12 to 18 inches of bare floor at the room perimeter.

What rug size usually works under a queen bed?

An 8x10 is a common starting size. Position it under the lower two-thirds of the bed and check for roughly 18 to 24 inches beyond the places where feet land.

How large should a dining-room rug be?

Add 24 inches to every side of the table footprint. The extra area keeps chair legs on the rug when diners pull out.
