Round carpets for living rooms, corners and kids spaces in Singapore

Where can you use round carpets

Round carpets are very good at softening strong lines and corners. They can break up a room that feels too square or too straight, and they help create small zones inside a larger space. When you are not sure what shape will work, a round rug is often a safe and friendly choice.

Under a coffee table

A round carpet under a coffee table can help define the seating area, especially in smaller living rooms or square rooms. It keeps the space open while still giving you a soft surface underfoot.

Reading corners and small nooks

Round rugs work nicely in reading corners, beside a window seat, near bookshelves or in small nooks. They create a cozy spot without taking up too much visual space.

Kids rooms and play areas

In children’s rooms or play areas, a round carpet makes a soft landing spot for playing, reading and lying on the floor. The curved shape can feel more playful and gentle compared to a typical rectangle.

How to choose the right size for a round carpet

For a coffee table, measure how much space the table and surrounding seating take up. Most people prefer the round carpet to be larger than the table, so the edges of the rug extend beyond the table top.

Measure the furniture footprint

Check walking paths

Make sure the round carpet does not block doors or become a trip hazard. In tight spaces, choose a size that leaves some clear floor where people walk.

Match the scale of the room

In a small corner or kids room, a 120 cm or 140 cm round rug may be enough. In a larger living room, 160 cm or 200 cm works better so the carpet does not look like a small circle floating in the middle of the floor.

Consider layering

If you already have a large neutral rug, you can sometimes place a smaller round carpet on top to create a layered look. This can add colour and interest without changing the entire base carpet.

Choosing designs and colours for round carpets

Modern and minimal

For modern interiors, look for round carpets in plain or lightly textured designs with soft colours. These work well with simple sofas and light wood furniture and keep the space feeling calm.

Playful and colourful

In kids rooms or creative spaces, do not be afraid of colour. Round carpets in soft pastels or cheerful tones can make the area feel more inviting for play and activities.

Traditional and patterned

Round carpets with traditional or Persian inspired patterns can act as a centrepiece, especially under a round table. They add character and work nicely in more classic or mixed style homes.

Caring for your round carpet

Rotate when needed

If one side of the round carpet is always facing a window or receives more traffic, rotate the rug occasionally so wear and sunlight are spread more evenly.

Treat spills quickly

As with other carpets, blot spills as soon as they happen with a clean, dry cloth. Avoid rubbing, as it can push stains deeper into the pile. Use gentle cleaners suitable for the carpet material and test in a small hidden spot first.

Regular vacuuming

Vacuum the carpet regularly to remove dust and crumbs, especially if it sits under a table or in a play area. Take care around the curved edges so they do not curl or fray.

Professional cleaning

When the round carpet starts to look dull or has stains that are hard to remove, send it for a professional wash. We can clean both handmade and machine made round carpets and advise if any repair is needed at the edges.

If you are not sure whether your carpet needs cleaning or can still be revived with a light refresh, you can send us photos, and we will advise.
