A carpet or rug has become a common decoration that often adorns the rooms in a house. This floor covering helps to mitigate the coldness of tiles when touched. Various designs and patterns can be chosen to match the furniture placed in the room. However, it's not just about the visual aspect; the size of the carpet is also crucial because its placement should be adjusted to the furniture in the room. Here are some examples of carpet placement that are tailored to the size and interior arrangement of the furniture.

  1. Bedroom

The use of carpets in the bedroom can have various placements. However, for a carpet placed under the bed, it should match the size of the bed. As shown in the image above, a good-sized carpet should cover the area under the bedside table and the bed. This is done to ensure that the carpet pattern remains visible and enhances the bedroom's aesthetics.

However, it doesn't always have to be a large carpet that covers all the furniture. By varying the sizes of carpets as shown in the image above, the balance of carpet placement and the room will feel more harmonious and beautiful.

2. Living Room / Lounge

The placement of sofas and tables will greatly influence the overall appearance of the room. The carpet should cover all the furniture in the room, ensuring that the room, with all its accessories, doesn't feel empty and has a more colorful ambiance. The size of the carpet is a way to group furniture in one area. Leave a gap between the outermost edge of the carpet and the outermost part of the sofa in the room.

As shown in the image, carpets can come in various designs with outer frames and inner frames. Adjusting the size and number of sofas and tables can be balanced with the size of the carpet. Different impressions will be conveyed depending on the placement.

3. Dining room

Using a carpet in the dining area can make a difference. The size of the carpet in this area needs to be adjusted to its width when chairs are pulled back for seating. This is because the carpet should still cover the area when people are sitting in the chairs, not just when the chairs are neatly arranged when not in use.

The size and shape of the dining table and chairs will affect the area of the carpet. As shown in the image, a large dining table for 10 people, for example, will require a larger and wider carpet compared to a dining table for 6 people. Square and circular shapes also provide different accents to the dining room.

4. Hall Way, Entry Way

Now, for the placement of carpets in areas like hallways or entryways, it's advisable to choose a long but not too wide carpet. Leave space between the wall and the carpet to expose the floor material on both sides of the carpet. If the carpet is placed in an area with a door opening, measure the height from the floor to the door and adjust the thickness of the carpet accordingly so that the door can be opened easily without being obstructed by the carpet.
