We are all aware of the importance of carpets to delimit spaces and even more so today when the trend is to create open spaces. Differentiate the living room from the dining room, give more importance to one area or give more depth to a bedroom are some of the possibilities offered by carpets but you should also be aware that a wrong choice of size can cause the opposite effect so it is advisable to follow a series of practical tips that we indicate below.
Living room
The living room is usually where we spend most of our time. And that's why we don't want to make a mistake in our choice.
Option 1: In this option the carpet will be placed in front of furniture and sofas, being slightly wider than the sofa.
Option 2: Same as above, with the carpet being the same width as the sofa.
Option 3: Another variable in carpet layout is where the carpet will be under the front legs of the sofa and furniture.
Option 4: This option is only recommended for living rooms large enough for the carpet to show off to its fullest.
Bedrooms
Option 1: Consists of 3 rugs, 2 at the foot of the bed and one at the front of the bed.
Option 2: A single carpet will occupy the base that forms the bed and bedside tables.
Option 3: A single custom carpet cut in a U-shape
Canteens
The most important thing to take into account when choosing a rug for the dining room are the chairs that are around the table as the size will have to be such that it allows diners to move it in such a way that the legs of the same do not exceed the carpet. For this to happen we must leave about 80 cm which means that the carpet should measure at least 1.55 m more than the length and width of the table.
Aisles
The corridors are a good place to show off your carpet for this you have to take into account that this is between 10 and 15 cm from the wall.

Should I vacuum or shake out the carpet?

How do we calculate the total M2 needed to manufacture a custom carpet?
In our custom carpet pricing process, we start with standard carpet rolls that measure 4 meters wide by approximately 25 meters long. When customizing a carpet, we consider both width and length to determine the total square footage.
It is important to note that even if the width of the carpet is less than 2 meters, 2 meters of width will be charged, and there could be a remainder to be delivered to the customer. If the carpet exceeds 2 meters in width, 4 meters will be charged. The custom carpet cannot exceed 4 meters in width, as this coincides with the maximum width of the carpet rolls.
In terms of length, a maximum length of approximately 25 meters is allowed. When generating quotations, if the customer does not provide a specific indication on patterns or designs, we calculate the square meters in a way that minimizes the total quantity. This ensures efficiency in the use of carpet rolls.
In short, our goal is to offer high quality custom carpets, charging fairly and considering both standard roll dimensions and the specific needs of each customer. If you have any additional questions or would like more details, please don't hesitate to ask.
