Carpets not only help increase aesthetics but also create accents for the dining area. In open-designed spaces where the dining room is connected to the living room or kitchen, carpets also contribute to clearly defining functional areas.
Dining table size
Dining table size greatly affects the selection of carpets. To choose a suitable size, the carpet must be wide enough so that when pulling the chair out to sit, all the chair legs are still completely on the carpet.
A simple calculation is to add about 50 cm to each edge of the dining table to determine the carpet size suitable for the dining area.
Choose a suitable rug shape
The shape of the dining table usually determines the shape of the carpet. Choosing a carpet that is similar in shape to the dining table will help create balance for the space. For example, a long dining table is often suitable for long rectangular carpets, while a round dining table will be more harmonious with a round carpet.
