Help and Advice
Design experts identify a room’s floor as one of its most important features, therefore flooring choice is one of the most influential factors in determining the success of the final decorating scheme.
Warm, soft and inviting, carpet instantly creates a welcoming atmosphere for any room. On a practical level, carpet gives better sound absorption and heat insulation than most other type of flooring and additionally it is easily maintained and durable.
Interior design choices are as individual as the designer and given the diversity of colour and textures that exist today, the decision-making process can become very confusing. Before buying, it is essential that the suitability of the carpet is assessed – for example, in a high traffic area like a hallway, a darker colour combination and hard -wearing design that feels heavy and has a dense pile will prove more practical. Long-pile carpets feel more luxurious underfoot – perfect for a bedroom – but potentially wear quicker than a shorter pile.
