Where to place rug

[Milliemoo1908]

Hi all,

I am trying to decide which size rug and where to place in my lounge/diner. I’d ideally like it in the sofa area but not sure how far across the room I should go. I am of course open to any ideas and thank you in advance! I have attached a very rough pic of the layout.

Could you flip the sofa so it's in the lower left corner and out the TV opposite (then out rug in that area like a little zone). Then I'd put the dining room where the sofa is on your drawing. The layout would look more balanced that way.

I agree with @Snipples. At the moment it looks a bit off having the dining table pushed up against the wall. Otherwise, can the table not be centralised in the space where you've drawn it?

Either way, large rug in sofa area with front sofa legs (at least) sitting on it.
