Medium Size Rugs: Versatility and Style in a Compact Format

Medium-sized rugs, typically ranging from 120x180 cm to 160x230 cm, are one of the most versatile decorating tools. They are the perfect solution for spaces where a large rug would be overwhelming, allowing you to define specific areas, add a focal point of color or texture, and bring warmth without visually saturating the space. Their compact size makes them ideal for defining a reading nook, framing a coffee table, or welcoming guests at the foot of the bed, offering a significant decorative impact with a balanced scale.

Types of medium-sized carpets by material

MaterialCharacteristicsIdeal for...
Cotton Lightweight, breathable natural fiber that is often machine washable, making it easy to care for. Available in multiple designs and colors. Bedrooms, children's rooms or low traffic areas where ease of cleaning and a soft feel are valued.
Jute and Sisal Highly durable and resistant plant fibers. Their flat weave is perfect for withstanding furniture movement. Entrances, hallways or under a small dining table, providing a natural aesthetic and superior performance.
Wool It offers unparalleled softness, warmth, and resilience. It is naturally dirt-repellent and has excellent insulating properties. Create a comfort zone in front of a sofa, in a reading nook or on either side of the bed, where a luxurious feel is desired.
Synthetic Fibers (PET) Made from recycled materials, they are highly resistant to stains and discoloration, perfect for heavy use. Play areas, busy living rooms or even covered balconies, thanks to their durability and easy care.

Advantages of medium-sized carpets

  • Definition of Sub-spaces: Perfect for creating visually separate zones within a larger room, such as a work area or a relaxation corner.
  • Decorative Flexibility: They are easy to move, rotate, or change rooms. They allow you to experiment with the "layering" technique (placing them on top of a larger, neutral rug).
  • Design Focal Point: Its size is ideal for introducing a bold pattern, vibrant color, or interesting texture without compromising the entire decor.
  • *
  • Adaptability: They fit in spaces where a large rug wouldn't fit, such as studios, small apartments, or wide hallways.

Tips for choosing your medium-sized rug

Consider its function. To frame a coffee table, make sure the rug is at least 20 cm wider than the table on each side. At the foot of the bed, choose one that extends about 50 cm beyond the width of the bed on each side. In a small living room, a medium-sized rug can "float" in the center, with all the furniture arranged around it, or you can place just the front legs of the sofa on it to create a sense of connection without taking up the entire floor.

Frequently asked questions about medium-sized rugs

  • What exact measurements are considered medians?

    Although it varies, formats such as 120x180 cm, 140x200 cm or 160x230 cm are generally included, ideal for most standard rooms.

  • How do I place a medium-sized rug in a living room?

    The most common option is to place it under the coffee table, ensuring there's enough room to walk around it. Another option is to position it only under the front legs of the sofa to anchor the seating area.

  • Are they a good option for a small dining room?

    Yes, they're perfect for round or square tables seating up to four people. The key is that the chairs don't slip off the rug when you pull them out to sit down.

  • Can I put a wool rug in an entrance?

    It's not the most advisable option. For entrance areas or high-traffic zones, it's better to opt for durable, flat-woven materials such as jute, sisal, or synthetic fibers.
