Our 200×300 cm rugs

The 200×300 cm rug is the second most requested size after the 160×230 cm. It is the "large living room" standard: the ideal size for living spaces of 20 to 30 m², big enough to take in a whole seating arrangement.

Which room?

A large living room (20-30 m²): the rug sits under sofa, armchairs and coffee table, taking in all the furniture
Bedroom with a 160 cm queen bed: placed under the bed, with 60 cm of overhang on each side
Dining room for four to six: under a 140×90 cm rectangular table
A very large entrance or hall: a majestic central rug
Open-plan living and dining: it marks out the seating zone

Why is this size so popular?

The 200×300 cm covers 6 m² of floor. It is the grown-up size for a living room rug: it lets you build a real visual composition, with sofa, coffee table and armchairs all on the rug, rather than a simple accent under the coffee table. A room with a 200×300 cm reads as more structured and more "finished" than the same room with a 160×230.

Every style available

This size is very widely produced and comes in absolutely every style and colour, from traditional Berbers to sleek modern designs, by way of Persians and orientals.

How to lay it in a living room

Three main options:

Under all the furniture: sofa, armchairs and coffee table entirely on the rug. Very much a "defined room" effect
Front legs of the furniture on the rug: only the front legs of the sofa and the armchairs. Leaves more floor on show
Under the central zone only: just the coffee table and a third of the sofa, an option that becomes tricky at 200×300 cm, where the rug risks looking undersized for the effect

Choosing your 200×300 cm rug

How do I lay out a 200×300 in a living room?

There are two main layouts with a 200×300:

All the furniture on the rug: sofa + armchairs + coffee table. Ideal if your room is at least 22 m² and your furniture fits within 200×300
Front feet of the sofa on the rug: the back of the sofa stays off the rug. Works well in a living room where the sofa sits against the wall

Rule of thumb: the rug should extend at least 20-30 cm beyond each side of the sofa.

My living room is 20 m²: 160×230 or 200×300?

At 20 m², both are playable, but the effect differs:

160×230 cm: the rug sits in front of the sofa, an "anchoring" effect. Cheaper, and it leaves more floor on show
200×300 cm: the rug takes in all the furniture in the seating area. The "finished room" effect, and grander with it

Our recommendation: if your sofa is over 2.20 m, or you have armchairs around it, go for the 200×300. Otherwise 160×230 is plenty.

A 200×300 in a bedroom: where is it best placed?

In a bedroom with a queen bed (160 cm), 200×300 cm is the ideal size:

Lay the rug at right angles to the bed, leaving 60 cm showing on each side
The headboard often stays off the rug (that part is optional), while the feet and the bedside tables generally sit on it
The rug should extend at least 60 cm beyond the foot of the bed, so getting out of bed is as comfortable as possible

For a king bed (180 cm), move up to 250×350 cm to keep the same proportions.
