Sizing guide
Not sure how big or small your new rug should be? There are no rules for the size of a rug, it depends on your personal preference and taste. However, there are things you can take into account when determining the size. On this page we give you tips so that you can determine the best size for you.
Tip: to get a good feeling of how big the rug is, you can cover the area with tape. You can also place newspapers within the dimensions, which helps you get a clear picture.
Rug near the sofa
To create unity, place the furniture partly on the rug (about 30 centimeters). You do this by placing the front legs of your sofa on the carpet. In doing so you make the interior look connected.
Do you want to create an island? Then place the furniture completely on the carpet.
When the carpet is in front of the legs of the sofa, the furniture looks better. The emphasis is then not on the whole, but on the individual elements.
Rug under the table
Place the rug so that it extends a minimum of 60 centimeters and a maximum of 90 centimeters under the table. You can then slide your chair back without it sliding off the carpet.
The deep pile rugs and Zanafis (kilims) are less suitable for under the table. We can make a short pile rug especially for you, so that it is suitable for under the table. Are you interested in this? Please email us at info@azulrugs.com
Carpet in the bedroom
Want to put the rug under your bed? Then it is important that the rug is large enough so that it protrudes sufficiently on both sides.
Your bed seems longer when the rug is two-thirds under the bed.
You can give your bedroom a cozy look by placing a smaller rug next to your bed or at the foot of the bed.
