The 12′ x 18′ size area rugs are a commitment, and if you have large enough interior space, they can allow you to create a room that is both elegant and sophisticated. You have many options for placing a rug of this size in your home. If you have carpeting that is tired, placing oversized area rugs can be an excellent option rather than replacing it. The 12×18 rugs size is perfect for a larger dining room or a truly grand grand foyer entryway.
The perfect room design begins by choosing the prefect area rug that is proportionate to the room. When shopping for the right size area rug, you should make sure that you have at least 6” to 18” inches on all sides of the rug showing. Otherwise, the scale of the rug can overpower the design and make the room look smaller.
If you have an open-plan space, a 12 foot by 18 foot size rug can help create a functional area. If you need a space to serve as a bedroom, a living room or a home office, a 12′ x 18′ rug will help to define the space and make it feel set aside from the rest of the area. This is also the perfect size rug for many office waiting or reception areas. If you have an office with a view, a large rug is a perfect foundation for a hardwood desk and a few chairs.
To know how big rugs will fit into your space, try marking off the area with some masking tape and placing your furniture in your desired locations. This is an excellent way to get an idea of how the room will feel before you bring the piece home. Keep in mind that the colors and scale of the design of the rug will have an impact on how large the room feels and how well it will match the proportions of your furniture.
One thing to keep in mind is that when you purchase a larger 12 feet by 12 feet size rug, keeping it centered in the room with equal amounts of floor space on all sides will give the room a more balanced feel (as per the approach of most interior decorators). If your space has more room on the ends than on the sides of the rug, it could make your room appear to be longer. In a wider room, more space on the sides of the rug will make the room appear wider, too. You can use an oversized rug to adjust the scale of the room and make it feel more intimate or more open and airy as you choose.
When it comes to choosing a rug size that is appropriate for your room, it is usually better to go with one that is a little larger than one that looks too small. This is the case, as long as the rug does not touch any of the walls. One popular design trend is to layer smaller bugs on top of larger ones, which is one way in which a large 12 by 18 size rug can be the foundation for a creative and unique design for any style room.
In the world of rugs, there isn’t a strict definition of “standard” size since it can vary based on cultural preferences, trends, and personal preferences. However, 12 x 18 rugs are not typically considered standard size rugs for most residential spaces.
12×18 rugs are quite large and are more likely to be used in larger spaces like grand living rooms, ballrooms, conference halls, or other expansive areas where you want to cover a significant portion of the floor. They can also be custom-made for specific spaces.
Keep in mind that “standard” rug sizes can also be influenced by regional norms and interior design trends, so what’s considered standard may vary based on where you are and the current styles. It’s always a good idea to consider the dimensions of your room and your furniture layout when choosing a rug size.

Twenty or so years ago my father gave me a beautiful antique Persian rug - after so many years (and kids and pets) it needed some TLC, so I brought it to Nazmiyal. I just picked it up today and - wow! They got the stains out entirely and the entire rug is brighter; they also made some repairs - it's back in my living room and looks fantastic, and the bill was lower than I'd expected. Overall it was a great experience - the people are wonderful, the work was perfect, and I saw so many beautiful rugs at their store that I found myself wishing for a larger apartment. Next time I need any work done on a rug, or find an open bit of floor I know where I'll be heading.

It is always a delight going to the Nazmiyal showroom. This Qashqai is one of several purchases made over the years, and mom is truly enjoying it. Jason and the staff are very knowledgeable and friendly. They listen to the customeru2019s needs. When I go to the showroom, it is like visiting my family because we have the same appreciation for the textile arts.nnOriental carpets are a rare discipline to be educated in, because you canu2019t go to a university to have certain types of training and experience, such as knowing the cultures and processes of carpet weaving. Jason has such a refined eye that he can distinguish a good rug from a great rug, and that knowledge is offered to the customer to elevate their point of view.nnComing here has been an initiation into a world of culture, art, and beauty which has sustained me, and for that I am grateful.

Loved my runner rug purchase from Nazmiyal. Love the ability to purchase, try and return if it didn't work out! I had it shipped to California and everything worked out beautifully!

NAZMIYAL is the best source for antique and vintage rugs and carpets. Staff is extremely knowledgeable, Jason himself is an amazing dealer who handpicks each and every piece in his stunning collection and is happy to educate the consumer, not just make a sale. I always trust his experience and great eye for all my spaces!

I had an absolutely wonderful experience working with Nazmiyal. I was very impressed by their selection, the quality of their beautiful carpets, and their extremely reasonable prices. Really I cannot say enough about how helpful everyone at the gallery was - especially Omri, work with him if you can! - and how happy I am with my new antique rug. Five stars, highly, highly recommended!
