Living room carpet
A stylish and comfortable living room rug brings your home to life and brings atmosphere to the heart of your home. Also take into account that the carpet for the living room is the right size, because if the carpet is too small or large, the entire living room will suffer. If the living room is small, we recommend using light colors to create more of a sense of space and thus choose a suitable living room carpet.

One of the most important things when choosing a carpet for the living room: Size
When choosing a carpet for the living room, one of the most important things issize. The right size rug can tie the different elements of the room together and create a harmonious whole, while the wrong size rug can make the space look unbalanced and cluttered. Here are some tips to help you choose just the right size rug for your living room:
1. Measure carefully
Before you go shopping, measure your living room and think about where you want to place the rug. The general guideline is that the rug should be large enough so that at least the front legs of all furniture, such as sofas and armchairs, are on the rug. This helps tie the furniture together and creates a cohesive area.
2. Leave enough space around the edges
Leave a suitably bare floor around the carpet. This frames the rug beautifully and gives the space clear boundaries. It is often recommended that there is about 20-30 cm of free floor between the carpet and the walls.
3. Big rugs vs. Small rugs
- Large carpet: A big carpetcan cover most of the floor area and create unity and warmth in the space. This is a particularly good option if you want to define the entire living area with one large rug.
- Small rug:A smaller rug can work well if you want to highlight a certain area, such as a coffee table area. However, make sure that the rug is not too small in relation to the furniture, as this can make the space look incoherent.
4. Form
The shape of the living room carpet can also affect the atmosphere of the space. Traditional rectangular rugs are common, butround onesorasymmetrical rugscan bring interest and dynamism to the space.
5. Test before making a purchase decision
If possible, test the carpet in the room before making a purchase decision. For example, you can use tape to mark the size of the rug on the floor and see how it looks in the space. It is also possible to get from us at MattokeitaaFrom the Tampere storecarpets for home fitting!
