You can simply lay a carpet on the living room floor and not think about anything else except cleaning.

But designers claim that there are several ways to stylishly and, most importantly, correctly lay out a carpet in the main room of a house or apartment.

The expert of the online publication "BelNovosti" in the field of design and interior design Yulia Tychino told about all the subtleties.

In the center of the room

You can lay a carpet in the center of a spacious room so that it does not touch the walls and furniture.

In this case, it will become a connecting link for interior items that stand on different sides.

Dining area

If the carpet is laid in the dining area, then both the table legs and the chair legs should rest completely on it.

This rule applies to the position of chairs at and around the table.

Under the furniture

An option that is quite common and mainly found in standard apartments in the company of a sofa, armchairs and a wall unit.

The carpet is laid out so that the front legs stand on it. This also applies to other cabinet furniture.

Harmony

If there are two identical sofas or two pairs of armchairs in the room that stand opposite each other, then the carpet is laid out in such a way that its edges are equidistant from each furniture group.
