The Soho Home rug size guide

While often it's the most difficult piece to get right, a rug is one of the main focal points to tie a room together. Our size-by-room plan will help you find the best size and style for every area of the home.

Living room

When looking for a living room rug, take note of your various layout options. Placing one under larger furniture items, like a coffee table or sofa, brings added depth and texture

Dining room
