Carpet Fashion Is A World Of Endless Possibilities

Either by itself or as part of a design which mixes other kinds of flooring, carpet is a world of glorious, seemingly endless choices to explore and a unique opportunity to find our fashion selves.

Carpet appeals directly to two of today’s leading trends in interior design (luxury and personal expression) because it offers a unique combination of color and pattern and both actual and visual texture.

The "luxe" trend in carpet is largely about making a personal statement in textures, tones-on-tones and mixtures of cut and loops.

Carpets in pile, cut pile or a mix of the two, say in neutral colors and lighter tones, will bring a fresh, airy and inviting look to any room.

New super-soft fiber technologies make it easier to craft a shape or pattern into a carpet and even turn berbers into a luxurious surprise. Speaking of soft fibers, don’t be fooled by their delicate feel. These are tough, long-wearing and highly soil and stain resistant.

Texture also can be created by the way in which yarns are twisted, loose to tight. Carpet experts tell us that twist also affects performance. As a rule of thumb, the higher or tighter a twist, the better the performance characteristics are likely to be. Higher twists also result in better-defined and more sophisticated carpet loops. Looser twists tend to be more casual; tighter ones, more formal.

A simple way to make your carpet unique is to create a border with another style or fabric of your choice, or inset wood, stone or another carpet. Or ask us about the chic modern, layered look using carpet with a new rug.

Whatever your personal tastes run to, there’s something personal for you in carpet.
