11 X 14 Area Rugs

Whether you add a large area rug as a decorative statement or simply for function, big rugs can have a significant impact on your décor. With a variety of sizes, shapes, patterns and styles to choose from, it’s easy to make large area rugs an expression of your style.

Large Area Rugs

Area rugs are soft and warm underfoot, creating a comfortable and cozy living environment. A large rug is ideal for creating boundaries or a division of space in homes with an open floor plan. Layer them over wood, tile or concrete flooring to make a space feel more inviting. You can even layer them on top of one another to bring a touch of artistic design and textural appeal to a room.

Rug Materials

When shopping for a large area rug, consider your interior style, where it will be placed and how much maintenance it requires. The material of the rug determines its softness, stain resistance, durability and fade resistance. Polypropylene rugs are durable enough to hold up to the busiest families, while jute rugs are better for low-traffic settings. High-pile or large shag area rugs work well as accents in bedrooms or living spaces. Low-pile area rugs are ideal for busy areas of the home, offering easy cleaning and high style.

Sizing Your Large Area Rug

A large rug acts as an anchor for furnishings and decor, ties the room together and creates a cozy, cohesive setting.

When selecting a dining room rug, choose one that’s big enough for you to be able to pull your chairs out without the feet falling outside the edges of the rug. The shape of the rug should match the shape of the dining table.

For the bedroom, begin by measuring the size of the bed. Purchase a rug that provides three feet of clearance on each side of your bed and accommodates your nightstands. To select a rug for your desired space, explore our wide selection of rug sizes for the perfect fit in any room.
