My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Is this rug too small?

11 years ago
Hi, we recently brought this rug for our living room and are wondering if it's too small. We have asked several people and have a lot of mixed answers. Thoughts?
Thanks.

    I like the rug, but yes, I think it's too small. It needs to be a couple of feet bigger in both dimensions so the front legs of both couches can sit on it. Floating rugs look disconnected.
