I’m trying to figure out how to place a standard rectangular rug under a horseshoe shaped sectional with an oval coffee table making up the center.
Should the rug go under the whole sectional with room to spare behind it? That would have to be a very large rug.
Can the sectional be only partway under the rug?
I’m thinking about a persian without a medallion here if that helps paint a picture.

    I like to see area rugs placed at an angle under horseshoe configured sectionals. You can put it just under the front so that there isn’t a gap that will get dirty right in front of the curved portion of the couch. You are placing the rug to anchor the couch to the room and protect the flooring underneath, having it under the couch doesn’t serve either purpose. This saves you a little money as well in that you don’t have to purchase such a large area rug… eskie lover
