Rug and coffee table styling!
Comments (11)I would go for a much bigger rug. Problem is they're hard to find and cost a fortune, but I'm wondering how it would look if you turned this one around and added another right next to it (stitch them.) I'm about to do this in my lounge. That is likely to be the cheapest option if this would be a good size. I'm also unsure about the colour. The tiles look grey, but the rug is brown based? Generally it's best to have one or the other - a room based around browns or greys?...See MoreOne coffee table, three ways - Which is your favourite?

Comments (2)My first thought is the rug is too small. A nice neutral rug big enough to go under the front feet of the sofas will make the space look larger - it really does work. John Lewis have a lovely range of rugs in natural fibres. If the budget is tight Dunelm are good and very on trend. I rather like footstools instead of coffee tables, lovely for putting your feet up after a hard day! They work really well as coffee tables, but best if you use a tray if serving drinks. Laura Ashley have a great range which I think would look really good in your room. The room looks fab and I love the eclectic mix. Good luck!...See Morestruggling with proportions and sizes of coffee table and 2 end tables
Comments (21)I think you're right jessa61, about waiting. The thing is, as you said, you're not in the house yet. When you get in and the floors, walls are ready and the main sofa is in, then add to it. You may dislike what you have in your head as soon as you see it all in situ, you may not. I really like the last table you posted, it's great with the sofa, and, in truth, i actually really dislike all the thin framed marble top tables around at the moment. It's not a trend i'm on board with. I would definitely wait for the accent chairs. Chesterfields are beautiful and statement pieces, however, they can be uncomfortable to sit on for long, there's no upper body / neck support and you can't lounge on them. So, this is why i personally think they go very well with high backed armchairs. You lounge on the armchairs with your feet up on the footstools. Also, you say you want two footstools, which is great to go with the armchairs, but you sound like you want to sit on the sofa and have them in front of you, which will be difficult with a coffee table in the way. The footstools can stay with the armchairs and be occasional seating, yes, the chesterfield needs to sit with the coffee table in front of it, not footstools. I think the side tables are a good idea, i'm not sure about the height you need, i'd wait to see how you use the seating before deciding. The height may be irrelevant and you may not want lamps on them at all....See Morealant1000
