No room can be just an extra room.
You don't have any extra square footage where it's like, oh, well, that's just going to be decorative.
Every single item in your home needs to serve a purpose.
And our motto is that everything in your home should work for you.
And work is a verb there where you have at least two functions, right?
Your living room is probably also functioning as your dining room and also functioning as your playroom.
Yeah, you really have to make use of all the space you have.
Everywhere the rug touches is the living room, right?
That's the living room rug, like Lion King.
Everywhere the light touches is yours.
And even if your dining room is right next to the living room, which mine is, there's a dining room rug, right, that says, you know, this is where the dining room is.
So rugs really help for that to define those spaces.
It can be a little hard to know what size rug to get.
They call it the dollhouse effect.
where, you know, if you put too many small things in a space, it creates visual clutter.
It almost looks like a mistake because the scale is off.
Let's say I have a sofa that is 84 inches.
If I have a five by seven rug, it looks like there's something missing.
Something else needs to go there.
