Rug Sizes

One of the main things that buyers consider when purchasing a rug is the size. Just as it is crucial to choose rug colors, designs, shapes, and styles that suit your taste, it's also crucial to select the appropriate rug size that will work well with your interiors. Cyrus Artisan Rugs offers a wide range of authentic handmade rugs featuring unique styles that symbolize heritage and represent different cultures, available in custom and standard rug sizes to transform any room or living space.

Transform Any Room in Your House

Rugs don’t just enhance your overall room decor—they can also affect a room’s size. Beyond providing a nice focal point for the room, adding warmth and comfort, and absorbing noise, any space can instantly look bigger or smaller with the right area rug size. Therefore, it’s important to choose the right size when shopping for a new rug, as this can ultimately affect the room’s look and feel.

Rugs can make overly large areas feel less spacious and bare. This is done by using several small rugs to create separate areas within larger rooms or open floor plans. On the other hand, placing a large rug in the middle of a cramped room can create the illusion of added space. For best results, the large rug should blend well with the room’s walls and furniture to give the impression of uncluttered space.

Choosing the Right Rug Size

Rug sizes can be tricky, but one important rule of thumb is to make sure that the carpet is large enough so that the front legs of your furniture are all on the rug. You can also choose to have all legs on the rug or, if you have a larger room, keep all chair legs off of it completely by placing the furniture a few inches away from the edges of the rug.
