Embracing comfort and style: popular carpet textures

In the past, coloured and patterned carpet sections could be found from one end of a room to another. The trend of texture is established now, indeed there are a lot of kinds of texture offered to satisfy different customers.

  • Plush vs. textured carpets: Velvety rugs made out of nylon or polyester that we still carefully put in our bedrooms and living rooms have been popular for years. It has a luxurious texture combined with the possibility to choose between many colours. Nevertheless, multifaceted carpets are getting preferred, like loop piles and cut/loop piles. These carpets tend to create a more casual look and are proven to be more durable than the other kinds, especially in heavily accessed places.
  • Choosing the right texture for your needs: The room function when choosing a texture be considered. For example, shaggy carpets are suitable for creating a homey environment in the bedroom, but in the bustling living room, it is wiser to opt for carpets that are not easily recognised as worn-out.

Forget beige! Nowadays carpets not only provide aesthetical pleasure but an amazing colourful spectrum, so everybody can find something according to their preferences.

  • The rise of earthy tones: People with a preference for earth shades often find ranges of warm browns, rich beiges, and calming greens for interior spaces that offer peace and tranquillity. These hues can easily be combined with the most trending and classic furniture styles.
  • Making a statement with accent colours: Does it sound like an adventure trip? One of the most beautiful ways to accent your room is by not being afraid to use bolder accent colours. Using jewel tones on the walls can mean a spark of interest in the room and it can also be something to reflect our personality.


Timeless appeal: classic and enduring styles

While trends come and go, some classics never go out of style. The best ones are evergreen whereas periodically new trends emerge. Although, some classics are timeless.

  • The enduring popularity of neutrals: To keep a neutral era design, take earthy tones such as grey, beige or light ecru as your decision. They are the most essential elements in defining and spacing your home, which can be changed by pieces of furniture and decoration of any colour.
  • Reimagining traditional patterns in modern homes: Though there was the use of traditional patterns such as stripes, flowers and damasks, the style was revamped with a neat metaphor. The designers have utilised vibrant colours and larger scales to give updated carpets this feeling of a time gone by with much more sophistication.


Sustainable chic: eco-friendly carpet options for a greener home

Environmental awareness of people is at the top of the agenda now; still, it is possible that you will not have credible sustainability principles when shopping for carpets. However, you can rest assured about the eco-friendliness of the carpets, because you can find those available on the market.

  • Natural materials like wool and jute: Currently, mankind enjoys a wide range of options in how they dress and they can wear a choice of natural fibres made from wool or jute for example, which are still soft, last long and biodegrade easily at the end of their life! The humanised material of wool carpets is self-cleaning and is predisposed to flame and as such they make an air of themselves as a family with pets or children.
  • Carpets made from recycled materials: The majority of companies produce carpets out of recycled materials like old plastic bottles or leftover materials. Such area rugs are a perfect way to cut down on your ecological footprint in a way that does not put your good taste in jeopardy.


Finding the perfect fit: matching carpet trends to your home style

  • Contemporary chic vs. rustic charm: Texture, geometric patterns, or bold colours for an edgy and contemporary space. To get a chilled-out vibe, focus on using textiles, such as wool or jute in warm, earthy colours.
