Living room rug collection
In our living room rug collection, we have tried to bring together for you some of our rugs that have been used by our customers or by our interior designers, mainly as a living room rug. Of course, you can deviate from this and use them in other rooms. In this collection you will find mainly hardwearing oriental rugs and machine-made carpets for living rooms. These living room rugs are all easy to vacuum clean.
For handmade rugs, you should also pay attention to the fibre direction. The direction of the fibre is the laying direction of the knots. Wool rugs are light in colour when viewed from one side and dark when viewed from the opposite side. It is worth taking this into account when laying a living room rug. Also, carpets should only be vacuumed in the direction of the fibres.
Of course, we do not recommend laying rugs in living rooms where shoes are worn, especially wet or muddy shoes. But we are aware that anyone who buys a beautiful rug for their living room will take care of their rug, not only because of the price, but because the purchased carpet is "love at first sight"...
A practical guide to finding a living room rug
Choosing a living room rug is an important and difficult decision. A well-chosen rug not only provides comfort, but also adds style and character to your home. Here's how interior designers and our customers choose and buy a living room rug.
First, think about what style of living room rug you want. Modern or oriental pattern? Or perhaps a solid colour? A thin woven rug or a thicker knotted one? A cost efficient machine-made rug or a unique handmade rug? Your living room rug should match the style of your home and harmonise with your living room furniture, decor and other textiles. Remember that the living room carpet is the focal point of your living room, so it plays a key role in the overall look.
The next step is to choose the size. Often the size of the living room rug depends on the size of the couch. Interior designers like to fill the area in front of the couch, which is usually where a coffee table is placed. This area is the centre of the living room. Care should be taken not to place a rug under the furniture. On the one hand, the full pattern of the rug is not visible and on the other hand, heavy furniture can damage the rug over time.
The ideal size for a smaller living room rug is around 160x230. For larger living rooms, the ideal rug size is 250x350 or 300x400. The most commonly chosen living room rug size is usually around 200x300. Measure everything carefully before making a decision. Your measurements should be minimum and maximum width and length. So what is the largest size of carpet that will still fit and what is the smallest size. Quality is also an important factor. The material of the living room rug should be long lasting and hardwearing, because this is the place where we do most of our activities, receive guests.
Living room rug materials include wool, cotton or synthetic materials. Wool is famous for its durability and comfort, while synthetics are often cheaper. The exception is acrylic, which has similar properties to wool. The price of living room rugs ranges widely, depending on the material, size and uniqueness.
How do you care for your living room rug?
Caring for living room rugs is extremely important, given that this room is often the liveliest center of our home, where family and friends gather. It is therefore not surprising that living room carpets are exposed to the most daily wear and tear and accidents, whether it be accidental spills of drinks or food, or allowing guests to enter our living room with their shoes on.
Street shoes are the biggest source of dirt on carpets. In light of these facts, it is extremely important to pay proper attention to maintaining the condition of our living room rugs and to apply the necessary cleaning procedures. In the living room, the most common type of dirt caused by guests is spilled drinks. Most drinks can be wiped up with a dry cloth. Except for red wine, which can leave extremely stubborn stains on the rug. Quick action is key; use a slightly damp cloth to remove the stain immediately, as this is essential for maintaining the long-term condition of our rug.
Precautions related to pets are also important, such as using a blanket to protect the carpet and regularly trimming their nails to prevent them from damaging the carpet fibers.
As for carpet cleaning, there are many commercially available products that have been specifically developed for cleaning carpets. However, it is important to distinguish between cleaning carpets made of different materials, such as wool, polyester, or acrylic, and to choose the appropriate cleaning products for each. Furthermore, during the cleaning process, care must be taken not to over-wet the carpet, thus preserving its structure and longevity. Heavy furniture placed on the living room carpet can also damage the carpet's knots and structure in the long term, so it is worth choosing a carpet that is large enough not to go under the furniture.
If you lay a wool rug in your living room, it is worth vacuuming under the rug from time to time to prevent moths. Always vacuum in the direction of the fibres. Last but not least, if your living room carpet needs a more thorough cleaning, it is worth entrusting this task to a professional to ensure that your living room rug retains its beauty and condition in the long term.
Placement of the rug in the living room
Choosing a living room rug is an important task, as the living room is usually the central part of our home where family members and guests spend time. Oriental rugs are very popular in living rooms, mainly because of their unique and distinctive patterns and materials. Before buying a rug, it's a good idea to measure the length and width of your living room. It is not worth covering the whole room with rug, as any parts that do not show through the furniture are unnecessarily paid for. This could be several square metres.
Instead, buy 1 large living room rug and matching smaller rugs. It is worth placing a rug in front of the sofa, on which a coffee table is placed. This would be the main living room rug, and the connecting rug would match. Care should be taken not to place a rug under larger cupboards, as the weight of the cupboard could damage it.
You can even buy a runner rug as a connecting rug. Most of our customers are looking for a 200x300 rug for their living room. A connecting carpet measuring 100x150 or 80x120 is ideal. To create a comfortable and cosy interior, it is important to choose a carpet that is not only showy and pleasant to look at, but also durable and hard-wearing.
Browse our collection of living room rugs and if you need, you can also find a connecting rug to match. Order a living room rug and try it out in your own living room. If it doesn't match your living room, the CarpetDepo carpet store will arrange the return delivery, which is free of charge for you.
