Which rug fits in my bedroom?

In the bedroom, a rug lets you start the day with a cosy feeling under your feet. There are various arrangements in which you can position rugs in your bedroom; the size should be determined primarily by the width of the bed.

How to find the right rug for your bedroom

Rugs are also frequently found in bedrooms. There are several options here. You can place the rug under the bed, use it to cover another area of the floor, or position it near the bed so that you step onto a soft rug when you get up.

The size should be determined primarily by the width of the bed.

Small bed

In a small bedroom, you should opt for a smaller rug. While the bedside tables should be placed directly on the floor, the front legs of the bed can be positioned on the rug so that the bed is framed all around. The rug is placed only 1/3 under the bed, visually extending the bed.

Standard sizes: 200x300 cm | 200x350 cm | 250x300 cm

Rug runner as bed surround

As a bed surround, 2 rugs are placed beside the bed and/or 1 rug in front of the bed. For a small bed, a bedside rug on each side is sufficient. For the size of a rug runner in front of the bed, 30 cm should be added to the left and right of the bed width. With more space, you can vary the positions freely. With a bed surround, the rug runners should be no longer than the bed, but wider than the bedside table(s).

Standard sizes: bed surround 2x 70x140 cm, 70x340 cm (double bed: approx. 180 x 200 cm)

Large bed

A rug that lies completely under the bed should extend at least 60 to 90 cm beyond it, so that you can place your feet on it.

Standard sizes: 250x350 cm | 300x400 cm
