Runner rugs are typically used in hallways, entryways, next to beds, or anywhere a longer, slimmer rug is required to warm up a space. These areas are never standard sizes, so a custom rug is imperative to get the look and function just right.

Pro Tips for Designing Your Custom Runner

  • The length of the runner should be slightly shorter than the hallway's length by about a foot for proper centering. This allows the rug to sit perfectly in the middle of the hallway, creating a balanced look.

  • Make sure the runner maintains a gap of 3" between the rug and the wall. This gap creates a visual frame and prevents the rug from looking oversized or undersized.

  • Don't forget the doors, and ensure there's enough room to open properly.  This means considering not only the length of the rug but also the pile height.

  • Stair runners can boost the appearance of your staircase, but can be tricky to measure. Contact our design team to walk you through the process.
