Please help with rug color and size.

Dee Bo

I am not sure what size and color to get. Current rug in the picture is 10x8. I am thinking of going 9x13 or even 11x15. Colors I am leaning towards is solid navy or dark grey to even a vintage red style rug.

What size do you guys recommend and color? I just moved in so slowly getting things together.

The wool carpet I have now sheds to much and looking to get a different rug.

    IMO, the rug should be large enough to slip under the front 1/3 of the sofa and the two chunky chairs. The leggy ones should sit entirely on it. You can tape that out on the floor with painter's tape, then go one size up if the measurement isn't a standard rug size. I think drapes and art would make a big difference in the feeling of the room. If you'd like to "enlarge" the room, match drapes to the wall color and hang as per the chart below. Try a rug that has some of your blue from the chairs in it. Try the checked pillows on the sofa and a couple of the gray lumbar pillows on the blue chairs instead.

      I agree. You should get a larger rug. I personally would try something even larger than a 9x12 or 9x13 (though that size could work out ok too).

      You have such a lovely space and have done a great job so far. I look forward to seeing the progress!

      The rug should be partially under the sofa & 2 chairs and completely under the leggy chairs. I think the space needs some pattern and a rug could bring this in. I wouldn't do navy so the chairs don't get lost, I would either stick to a neutral patterned one or a colored overdyed one (something lighter than the floor), either would work just depends on your style. As far as other ideas, I wouldn't hang curtains all the way to the ceiling in this case the windows aren't big enough to be proprotionate so if you decide to hang curtains, I would go about 1/3 between the window & ceiling. I would do a really big, or 2 smaller, artwork pieces above the 2 chairs. For the time being I would take 2 lumbar pillows on the sofa and put them on the 2 brown chairs, remove the other lumbar pillows on the sofa and get 2 bigger pillows for the sofa, and I love the black/white pillows on the navy chairs! A few side tables and a couple lamps, some decorative centerpiece on the coffee table. Add a tall plant, in what I assume to be a corner, next to the cabinet. Sorry I know this is more than you asked for since I completely understand the slow decorating process especially if you just moved in. The room has tons of potential!

      I recommend the solid navy rug, and I agree with the comments above regarding size!

      Ill try that, or maybe place the chairs slight off the carpet. The carpet is 11x15 which is pretty big compared to the 8x10 I had

      I do like the side by side but feel this way has better arrangement for tv watching. I also had it set up as the attached pictures which I believe looks better but not good for binge watching netflix. I may try to move the carpet back so the sofa sits completely on the carpet and only the front legs of the blue chairs sit on top of the rug. Will post pictures when I change it.

      If you keep the blue chairs, they need to be situated with all four legs on the carpet. Just two legs looks off balance. It's unsettling to the eye.

      I liked the lighter rug to feature your furniture and floors. The navy is too dark.

      That size rug you have in the first picture is good. A dark gray wouldn't compete with the blue of your chairs while still contrasting with the rest of your furniture.

      I like the sofa against the wall a lot but it's not good for binge watching netflix. I have to have the sofa facing the tv. I wishe I would of went with lighter color carpet at this point, but don't want to deal with sending it back. Maybe I'll put the carpet in the bedroom

      We recommend the navy rug or gray rug, and in a medium size.
