Rugs by room

Choosing rugs by room means matching size, material and colour to how each space is actually used, from a busy living room to a quiet bedroom corner. This selection gathers designer models across the catalogue, drawn from all our designer rugs at outlet prices, so you move from one room to the next without losing sight of fit.

Size decides the rug for each room

A living room rug and a bedroom rug rarely need the same footprint. A generous 200x300 rug leaves the front legs of a sofa resting on the rug and keeps floor visible around it. A bedside rug sits better in 140x200, tucked under the lower third of the bed. Hallways ask for a different shape entirely, since a runner follows the corridor rather than filling it.

This catalogue counts 182 models at 170x240 and 105 at 200x300, the two most common living room formats. Bedrooms lean on 140x200, with 65 models, and 160x230, with 9. This catalogue also lists 43 corridor rugs under its hallway sizing. Round rugs, 25 models here, suit a small reading corner or a round table rather than a full seating area.

Materials for rugs by room: wool, viscose and more

Wool covers 267 models in this catalogue, keeping its texture over time. Viscose, present on 111 models, catches light and brings a soft sheen. Bamboo silk, on 78 models, adds the same brightness with a slightly firmer hand. Synthetic fibres, polyester and polyamide, appear on 72 models, often chosen for a flatter pile. Cotton appears on 26 models in this catalogue, including the Up Square rug, a red patchwork of wool and cotton at 140x200. Cowhide completes the range with 12 models, a different texture again, closer to leather than to woven fibre.

Wool for busy rooms, viscose for a soft finish

Grey leads with 114 models, followed by beige on 99 and white on 76. Brown and blue follow, with 52 and 41 models. Black closes the list at 36. Designer patterns dominate the catalogue at 211 models, ahead of geometric designs on 120 and plain rugs on 75. Low pile rugs, 47 models, suit a hallway or a child's room, where a thick pile would catch on doors or furniture legs. Vintage and contemporary styles each sit close together, at 46 and 44 models.

Hand-woven, hand-tufted or hand-knotted

Hand-woven rugs make up 168 models here, often flat or with subtle relief. Hand-tufted models, 127 in total, offer a regular velvet pile, built by punching yarn into a backing and shearing it afterwards. Hand-knotted rugs, 91 models, carry a knot count that signals how fine the pattern is. Each technique changes the feel underfoot as much as the price point within the outlet range.

The Harmony rug, brown wool and viscose at 140x200 or 200x300, is hand-knotted at 45 knots, with a flat base and 0.4 cm relief. The Akka rug, grey viscose at 200x300, is hand-tufted.

Matching a room to its rug, room by room

A living room rug often anchors the main seating area. Browse the full range on the living room rugs page.

A bedroom rug asks for a size that fits beside or under the bed without crowding the room. The dedicated bedroom rugs selection groups these sizes together.

A hallway rarely allows a square rug. A narrow rug keeps the width of the corridor clear while adding colour underfoot. The hallway runners page lists the narrow formats in this catalogue.

Colour and pattern across every room

Grey and beige rugs cross easily between living rooms and bedrooms, since both sit quietly against most wall colours. Blue and brown rugs tend to anchor a room more strongly, often chosen once the rest of the furnishing is set. The Moisson rug is a hand-woven wool model available in 200x300 or 300x400.

Frequently asked questions about rugs by room

Which rug size suits a living room best?

Most living rooms in this catalogue work with 200x300 or 170x240 rugs, large enough for the front legs of a sofa to rest on the rug while leaving floor visible around the edges. Larger rooms often take 300x400 or one of the large rugs listed here.

What is the difference between hand-tufted and hand-knotted rugs?

Hand-tufted rugs are made by punching yarn into a backing with a tufting gun, then shearing the pile for an even velvet. Hand-knotted rugs are built knot by knot on a loom, with the knot count indicating how fine the pattern is.

Which material suits a bedroom rug?

Wool and viscose both appear frequently among the smaller formats in this catalogue, such as 140x200, which fit well beside a bed. Viscose brings a softer sheen underfoot, while wool holds its texture over repeated use.

Does the same rug work in different rooms?

Some formats cross over, particularly 140x200 and 170x240, which appear in both bedroom and living room listings here. The choice depends more on pile height and material than on the room itself.
