Which Way Should a Rug Run?

/ 1 min read
Rectangular ecru wool rug with two thin black lines and a fringed edge.
Trame Wool Rug · 160 × 230 cm.

Two layouts to try with a 160 × 230 cm rug, plus a simple wool-care routine.

Mark a 160 × 230 cm rectangle in front of the sofa. First run the 230 cm edge along the seat. Check the front furniture feet and the route into the room; measure the available flat area rather than the distance from wall to wall.

Turn the outline so its short edge runs along the sofa. The rug now reaches 70 cm farther out into the room. If a door swings across the outline, check its clearance before committing to either layout.

For the Trame rug, vacuum on low suction without a rotating brush. Blot spills rather than rubbing them into the wool. Turn the rug end for end if you want the black bands at the other end of the same footprint.
