Hello we want to add a rug in this room. its foxing me big time, i think with the colour i will go nuetral ish, the big issue is the size/shape. does it sit only in front of the blue sofa ? or in the

middle of the room, or under the chairs that usually face towards the garden ? should i go for an oblong, square / round ? this site has helped loads in the past and i have usually found the solution. many thanks in advance.

It’s customary to have the front sofa legs on the rug, to prevent it looking like it’s floating. It helps keep the rug in place too. Here’s some inspiration and advice on placing rugs. I wouldn’t place the rug too near the dining chairs as it can be difficult to push them back.

Hi, I agree with the comment above, always place under your sofa, never let the rug float in the room like an island. I've a helpful guide on my website that may help you. https://www.no60interiors.co.uk/journal/rug-placement

Your dad did good work. The fireplace looks as if it just needs a good cleaning. Look online to find out how to clean it yourself, or hire a reputable (licensed, bonded, and insured) professional to do it for you.

Dark Kitchen - Light Floor - Advice Needed :)

Hi All, We are buying a new house which comes with a generic kitchen. We plan to upgrade and change colours, get a quartz countertop etc. We had our heart set on a light grey wood style floor. but my question is around what type of floor. We originally thought laminate throughout the whole downstairs, but then were put off as people were saying it was a bad idea for kitchens. Then we started thinking of wood effect tiling, but the idea of dirty grout kinda sways me away from that. Here's a rough photoshop of what we're thinking - disregard the wonky floor :) Any advice?

I would disagree personally - I would either go for a rectangle that goes under the two chairs and side table, facing the garden - to make this a little zone of it's own and to get an inward view on the room, drawing your eye into this area of the room.

Or to a large circle that goes under the far corner edge of the sofa and the middle of the room, tying all the areas together.

You are doing the right thing by taping them out.

If you are having trouble - maybe find the rug you want first and see what sizes it comes in and plan those out to see what works.

I hope it helps. All the best, Gina
