Square Rugs
Enhance Coherence
Square carpets work well in spaces that are not square, as well as in the corner of a room. If you lay a square carpet under a piece of furniture, it is best to let it extend a bit in front of the furniture. Also interesting: combine a square carpet with other shapes for more tension and dimension. A large square carpet in your seating area emphasises the fact that the furniture forms a whole.

What Square Rug is Right for You?
Living Room.
You can place a square rug under the front legs of the chairs, in front of the seats, or under the chairs further under the legs to create a symmetrical or asymmetrical living room setting.
Dining Room.
In addition to the table, the rug also needs to be square, round, or some other shape to be balanced on it. When measuring, try to center the rug beneath the table, leaving about 60cm of extra rug on each side.
Bedroom.
Adding a square rug underneath your bed creates a focal point for your room, but even if your bed is centered off to one side, you still have options. In fact, square rugs are perfect when they are centered in the middle of the room or used to establish a smaller sitting area.
Outdoors.
Look at similar indoor spaces for layout inspiration when installing square outdoor rugs.
Color.
Different color palettes can be used with square rugs in hundreds of different ways. Square rugs are characterized by colors such as blue, gray, white, black, red, purple, green, yellow, and gold, but you'll also be able to choose different shades of these colors. Make sure your rug's color palette ties into your room's style and conveys the same tone, so the whole room feels cohesive.
