Size the rug to the seating group, not to the room. The front legs of the sofa and armchairs should land on it, which ties the arrangement together and stops the furniture from drifting apart. In a compact apartment lounge, a 160x230 cm rug under a two-seater or three-seater usually does that. A larger family sitting room needs something closer to 200x300 cm so the side chairs still reach it. Leave a strip of bare floor showing at the edges, because a rug pushed up to the skirting reads as fitted carpet rather than a deliberate choice. How Big Should the Rug Under a Dining Table Be? Bigger than the table on every side. Chairs need to stay on the rug when they are pulled back, or the back legs catch on the edge each time someone stands up. Measure the table, then allow for a pulled-out chair at both ends and along each side. For most six-seater tables, that comes out to about 240x360 cm. Low-pile and flatweave designs work best under a table. The Homebox range includes stain-resistant polypropylene rugs, which suit a table that hosts young children at every meal. Which Rug Suits a Bedroom Best? A deep, soft pile earns its place in a bedroom more than in any other room, because the floor takes little traffic and the first step out of bed is the one you notice. Faux fur, plush microfibre, and velvet all give that cushioned landing. Lay one large rug across the lower two-thirds of the bed so it reaches past both sides and the foot end. In a smaller bedroom, a pair of narrow runners, one down each side, keeps the floor clear of the wardrobe doors. Do I Need a Runner in the Hallway? A runner is the shape that fits a hallway, since it follows the walking line without crowding the doors on either side. Narrow sizes such as 60x150 cm suit a short corridor, an entrance, or the strip beside a bed. Keep the pile low so every door still swings clear, and centre the runner with an even margin of floor showing on both sides. Doormats at the entrance do the first job here, catching sand and grit before they reach the runner and grind into the weave. How Do I Match Rug Material to the Room? Match the material to the room's traffic. Jute and other natural weaves are hard-wearing and disguise everyday marks, so they suit entrances, family rooms, and the routes between them. Polypropylene is the washable, stain-resistant choice for dining areas and homes with young children. Faux fur, velvet, and shaggy piles belong in bedrooms and quiet lounge corners, where softness counts for more than durability. Texture is hard to judge from a photograph, so handle a few weaves in Homebox stores across Doha before you commit to one. Is Low Pile or Deep Pile Easier to Live With? Low pile is the easier choice in most homes. It vacuums in one pass, dries quickly after a spot clean, and passes under a door that opens inwards. That makes it the sensible pick for dining rooms, hallways, and any home with pets. Deep pile feels better underfoot and softens the sound in a room, but it holds dust and needs attention more often. A medium pile splits the difference and is the safer answer when a room does double duty, such as a lounge that also serves as a play space. Can I Layer Rugs in a Majlis? Layering works well in a majlis, where seating runs along the walls and the middle floor can look empty. Start with a large flat base, such as a 200x300 cm jute or flatweave rug. Set a smaller patterned or plusher piece on top, squared in the centre or turned at an angle. Keep one of the two plain so the pairing looks considered, not busy. Floor cushions sit comfortably on the softer top layer, and the base takes the wear from everyone crossing the room. How Often Should I Vacuum a Rug in a Dusty Climate? Weekly is the baseline, and twice a week in rooms everyone walks through. Fine dust settles quickly in Doha homes and works down into the pile, where it grinds against the fibres and dulls the colour. Vacuum with the pile rather than against it, and take smaller rugs outside to shake them out. Blot spills as they happen instead of rubbing, because rubbing drives the mark deeper. Rotate the rug a couple of times a year so that footfall and sunlight wear it evenly rather than in one patch. Should I Use a Rug Pad on Tile and Marble Floors? Yes, on polished stone and tile, a pad is worth adding. It grips the underside so the rug stays put when someone crosses it, which matters most in homes with children or older family members. The pad also lifts the rug a fraction, letting air move underneath, and it cushions each step. Choose one cut slightly smaller than the rug so nothing shows at the edges. Some designs arrive with an anti-skid backing built in, so read the product description across the floor coverings range before you add anything underneath. Does My Rug Have to Match the Curtains? No, and matching everything exactly tends to flatten a room. Pull one colour from the rug and let it reappear in a cushion or throw instead of repeating it around the whole space. Where the curtains carry a strong pattern, keep the rug plain or textured so the two don't compete for attention. Mid-tones and mottled weaves hide dust and footmarks better than a very pale or very dark flat colour. In a small room, a rug close in tone to the floor makes the space read wider. Where Does a Prayer Mat Fit if the Room Already Has a Rug? Keep both. A prayer mat is used for nothing else, so it stays clean in a way that a living room rug crossed by the whole household never will. It also folds or rolls away between prayers, which keeps the corner tidy. Laying the mat over a rug adds padding under the knees, and that is welcome on a hard floor. Look through the prayer mats range for a size and thickness that suit the spot you have set aside, then store it there so the corner stays ready to use. What Should I Expect When a Rug Is Delivered? Rugs arrive rolled or folded, so give a new one a day or two to settle flat. To speed it up, weigh the corners with books or gently roll the rug the other way. Size is the usual reason a rug goes back, so mark the floor area out with tape before you order rather than judging by eye. Homebox delivers across Qatar, and Click & Collect is offered at checkout.
