*The most important facts at a glance
If the living room is darker, it is a good idea to work with a light-colored carpet that gives the room a sense of space.
In a smaller living room, the rug should also be smaller. We recommend placing only the front legs of the couch on the rug or choosing the rug so that only the coffee table is on the rug and a small distance is kept between the rug and the couch.
For the size, it is best to base it on the length of the side of the couch and choose a rug that is 20 cm to 30 cm longer. This creates a wonderful setting for the couch and a cozy island. And if the chips or a glass of soda end up on the carpet, don't lose your nerve. Take out the vacuum cleaner, bring a mop, run it over the floor and all is well again.
