I agree. Same rug, just smaller. You can good rug proportions and it will show you are variety of ways and how furniture should be placed.

I agree with Beverly. I personally would like some more color in the rug. However, that is just my personal opinion.

Something such as this gives a little more contrast with some beige tones and it also has some yellow which allows to introduce another color. This size is too large but here is the link. You can try out any rug you like with a "see this in my room" option. You just upload your photo.

I don't think the rug is too large since you have the fireplace blocked off and you could pull it still further under the couch, but I would choose one that also has some warm colors in it so that you're not so much in the cool blue/gray spectrum. I would move the large chair to sit straight against the window wall. When you've chosen your rug, buy some pillows that have the colors of the rug in them. I would declutter the mantel and put a large and colorful painting there, or a mirror that could reflect a large painting placed over the couch. I would also urge you to buy some curtain panels for the windows, in a cream color and thick material to soften this room. The room seems to be dominated by children's things, and perhaps some of that could be removed, although some of it is also inevitable when they're a certain age. A coffee table would certainly be a great addition, as would an end table and lamp next to the large chair. The coffee table and end table should not be the same. One of them could be glass and meta, preferably the end table, where it's less likely that little bodies and heads would hit against it.

We think the rug looks great, however here is another suggestion for a rug.
