Due to the carpet, you can easily transform the interior of your home by changing color schemes. a rug is a detail that helps to create different moods and a unique atmosphere in rooms. Natural and synthetic, fleecy and lint-free, round, square and even triangular – the wide range of carpets presented today allows everyone to find a suitable option. The shape of the carpet can be any, the main thing is that it is combined with the rest of the objects in the room.
Carpets help create not only a harmonious mood in the home, but also for you and your family members. For example, to wake up faster in the morning and to start the day easier will help paths made of natural jute, unusually pleasant to the touch thanks to the large weaving that massages the feet. In the evening, after an active day, a soft carpet with a long pile will help you to relax: comfort and warmth will literally accompany your every step. A carpet of bright and juicy shades will evoke memories of the warm moments of summer and will certainly cheer you up.
The main purpose of the carpet is to create a cozy atmosphere. With this versatile accessory, you can easily personalize your home space. When choosing a texture, pay attention first of all to convenience: a warm and soft carpet is suitable for a nursery, short-piled or lint-free for the hallway and kitchen, microfiber for the bathroom.
Designers often find unusual uses for familiar objects, so the rug can easily become a tablecloth while not eating at the table. Sheep skin on the back of a chair, a tapestry instead of a bedspread, a soft rug on a bench or stool. Be careful when choosing colors, prints, shades of carpet and textiles, try to choose them in such a way that they do not tire you out and do not completely take away your attention: for this they should not be too bright and catchy. It is ideal when all textiles are combined – curtains, pillows, carpet, bedspreads.
Now many Muscovites prefer to part with old Soviet carpets and take them to their dacha. But I would take a closer look at any of them, because sometimes they are just masterpieces of the textile industry of the Soviet era. It is not a shame to put such a carpet in the living room and in the bedroom in a city apartment, bringing some charm and color accent into the interior. Even in an apartment dominated by pastel shades, a Soviet-era carpet can look unexpected, catchy and majestically beautiful.
