A rug should look anchored and proportional underneath a sofa, typically positioned so that either all four legs, just the front two legs, or at least the coffee table area rests upon it. The most common and balanced interior design approach is to place the front legs of the sofa and matching armchairs on the rug while keeping the back legs off, which visually ties the seating group together. For smaller spaces, having just the front edge of the sofa touch the rug works well, whereas in large open-concept rooms, a rug large enough for all furniture legs to rest fully upon it creates a luxurious look.
