Todays Carpet Trends

Going beyond beige Long ago, when the choices of carpet were limited to basic beige, the designers tended to treat it more often than not as a neutral background for rooms.  These days, with numerous patterns, textures, and colors to choose from, the carpet is quickly emerging as the focal point in many interior designs.

Although you may think the need for neutral carpet has faded away, it hasn’t, as Berber is still an excellent choice.  Unlike the plain choices of the early 1990s, the versions of today offer more  pattern and texture.  Even the traditional types of Berber carpet offer more visual interest with  more extreme differences in pile being cut thicker, with deeper loop textures.

Color being sprinkled against a neutral background will add interest and dimension while helping to mask spots and spills.  The flecks of color are now appearing against tan, beige, and cream type backgrounds as well as in other neutrals as well.

Colors and textures The major shift in new products is going towards layered color and softer texture in carpet.  The combination of pattern and texture will always be a popular choice simply because it minimizes soil and vacuum marks.  The other advantage here is that the color and texture offer a more distinct styling and plenty of fashion appeal as well.
