Never Guess A Rug Size Again
Too small and a rug makes a room feel disconnected. Too big and it overwhelms the space. This estimator uses your room dimensions and layout type to recommend the ideal rug size and matching furniture proportions, based on the same spacing rules interior designers use.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why does rug size matter so much?
A rug that is too small makes furniture look like it is floating, while a well-sized rug visually anchors the seating or dining area and makes the whole room feel intentional and put together.
Should furniture sit fully on the rug or just the front legs?
In most living rooms, either works. The most popular approach is having at least the front legs of sofas and chairs resting on the rug, which keeps the seating area visually connected without needing an oversized rug.
What if the recommended rug size does not exist in stores?
Rug sizes are sold in standard increments, so the tool always recommends the closest standard size available. Rounding down slightly is generally safer than a rug that touches the walls.
Does this account for furniture I already own?
This tool estimates ideal sizes based on general room proportions and design guidelines. If you already own furniture with fixed dimensions, measure it directly and adjust the rug recommendation accordingly.
Is this tool accurate for oddly shaped rooms?
The estimator works best for standard rectangular rooms. For irregular layouts, alcoves, or open-plan spaces, treat the result as a helpful starting point rather than an exact answer.
