Rug Size Guides
The bedroom is a highly personal space – it expresses your character and gives you a place of respite after long days. And adding an area rug to your bedroom is a quick way to make it feel cozier and more relaxing, with soft textures and styling that reflects your unique tastes. A twin bed is often used for a smaller room, but that doesn't mean you should skimp on accentuating the room with a nice rug! Learn more about which rug size you should use and why below.
The standard rug size for under a coffee table varies depending on the size and shape of the coffee table as well as the room that it’s situated in. In general, the most popular sizes for coffee table rugs include 4x6, 5x8, 6x9, and 8x10. Round and square rugs in this range of sizes are also available to sit beneath coffee tables. Similar to rectangular rugs, the exact size you choose of these shaped rugs will depend on the shape of your coffee table and how you plan on layering the rug with other furniture.
Rectangular coffee table sizes often vary in three areas: height, length, and depth. The height is fairly standard as it ranges between 16” and 20”, but the depth and length can vary. Standard length for rectangular coffee tables is anywhere between 48” and 54”, while the depth is often between 24” and 30”. As for other shapes like round and oval, round coffee tables are often between 30” and 48” inches and oval tables are typically about 22” wide and 54” long.

As you start looking for that perfect rug, it’s essential to measure the size of the coffee table and sofa to help you determine the rug’s scale to those pieces of furniture. Have an idea in mind of how much rug you’d like on each side/end of the table, if you’d like it to layer with the sofa, and how much space you need around the coffee table itself. Not only is the size of your rug important, but so is the material as you determine the texture of your rug, how durable it is, and how easy to clean it is. Some popular, easy to clean materials are wool, polypropylene, jute, and cotton. Rug pads and non-slip grips are also essential to maintain the life of your rug and keep it safely set.
Placing a round rug beneath a square coffee table is an excellent way to create a unique aesthetic in your living room. Although we typically recommend having 18” of rug past the sides/corners of coffee tables, with this combination, it’s actually better to have even more than that 18”. Since the two shapes do differ from one another, choosing a larger round rug like a 5x5 or 6x6 will allow the two shapes to work in harmony instead of compete against one another.
