Performance

By Room

A great rug is where every beautiful room begins. It grounds your space, guides your design, and ties everything together. When a rug doesn’t fit quite right, the entire room can feel off balance. Start with our expertly designed room layouts to create a space that feels thoughtful, balanced, and beautifully finished.

Rules to shop by:

When in Doubt, Size Up: The most common rug mistake is going too small. Choose the largest size that keeps your furniture grounded — not floating on bare floor.
Match the Material to Your Life: High-traffic spaces call for durable materials like wool or quality synthetics. Lower-traffic rooms give you more freedom.
Anchor Your Furniture: The front two legs of all major pieces — sofas, chairs, tables, beds — should sit on the rug. In dining rooms, chairs should still land on the rug when pulled out.
Never Skip the Pad: A rug pad protects your rug, your floors, and your investment. Trim it slightly smaller than your rug on all sides for a clean finish.
Clear the Vents and Radiators: Don't cover floor grates or vents, and leave at least an inch of clearance around radiators.
Mind the Pathways: A rug edge in the wrong spot becomes a tripping hazard. Think through how people move through the room before you commit to a size.
Tape It Out First: Use painter's tape to outline the area before you buy. Measure and choose the nearest standard size.
Check Your Door Clearance: Measure the gap between your door and the floor before committing to a high-pile rug — it shouldn't stop the door from opening.

The Bedroom

* Your rug should extend 18–24 inches beyond both sides and the foot of the bed, enough that your feet land on something soft when you get up.

* Position the rug so it slides about two-thirds of the way under the bed. This grounds the bed visually and keeps the layout feeling intentional.

* Comfort underfoot is the priority in a bedroom. This is the room to go high-pile or plush.

* With low traffic and no food spills, the bedroom is a safe place to go lighter in color or more delicate in pattern.

* A thick non-slip pad prevents bunching and adds extra cushioning underfoot.

The Dining Room

* Add 24–30 inches on all sides of the table so chairs stay on the rug when pulled out

* Match the rug shape to the table — round table → round rug, rectangular table → rectangular rug

* Choose flatweave, polypropylene, or indoor-outdoor materials for easy cleaning

* Pick a pattern or darker tone to hide food crumbs and scuffs

* Keep pile low so chair legs glide easily and don't snag

Care Guide

Protect the foundation of your home with simple care and cleaning tips. Thoughtful maintenance will keep your rug looking beautiful for years to come.

Wool

Unpack the rug soon after it's delivered to minimize any creases or pressure marks from being folded or rolled up.
Vacuum regularly with a suction-only flat nozzle (no beater bar or brushes) to avoid pilling and pulls.
Trim, don't pull, loose threads.
Blot spills immediately.
Professionally clean as needed. Avoid stain repellents containing silicone, as they can accelerate soiling.
We recommend that you rotate your rug once in a while to get sunlight and wear on the rug more evenly over time.
