A rug that is too large for the room can paradoxically make the room feel smaller.
Is 5x8 rug too small.
Just got the area rug that i like but i am wondering about the size.
The salesperson thought 8x10 would be too big in the room but this feels too small.
So i wondering if my eyes were just used to the bigger coverage.
The rug is 5x8.
Here are a bunch of pretty rooms that they ve tried to convince us have big enough rugs.
Almost any rug that feels just a bit too small can be stretched into service with a layer beneath that s at least a bit larger.
I used to have an 8x10.
A rug in a living room should really ground the whole seating around it tells everyone that this is where the conversation is this is the focal point of the room and a too small rug makes it feel disjointed and really just cheapens everything.
It might be worth buying the higher end rug in a 5 8 and layering it over a much less expensive 8 10 neutral fiber rug.
A rug that is too small for your space can cause the room to feel uninviting.
The right sized area rug will bring warmth and balance to the room creating the perfect finishing touch.
This room is 12 5 ft x 13 5 ft.
