Just like your cushions and curtains, the carpet is an essential element that must be considered to refine the decoration of a room. Many criteria will play in selecting a rug, such as its size, shape, material, colour or even the room in which it will be placed. However, a criterion should be considered, and a question arises: what type of carpet to choose according to its floor covering?
Indeed, with many rugs on offer, finding your way around and choosing the rug that will add value to your room is difficult. It all depends on your floor covering.
Warming up your tiles.
For a floor that will tend to be quite cold, like the tiles, choose a woollen shaggy rugs which will be much more suitable and pleasant when you walk barefoot. It will also warm the room thanks to an insulating action and regulate the surrounding humidity naturally. To limit the risk of falls due to a slippery carpet, consider placing non-slip pads under the carpet.
Accompanying your parquet floors.
As far as parquet is concerned, a rug with bright, warm colours will fit perfectly into the cosy aspect that this material can provide. A patchwork rug, or a modern patterned rug, circles, for example, will break up the too-monotonous lines of the parquet floor and bring a touch of originality. Softness for your waxed concrete With a waxed concrete floor, it can be interesting to play on the loft character of the room. Use animal skin (real or fake according to taste) for a trendy decoration. You can also use a shaggy rug the same colour as your floor to create a softness in the room that will contrast with the raw look of the concrete.
A carpet on a carpet?
For carpet holders, it is also possible to have a carpet, and it is even highly recommended. Given the difficulty of maintaining a carpet, it is necessary to protect it from any stains or marks left by furniture. Then prefer a solid colour and flashy carpet to divert the eye from a faded and dull carpet. Alternatively, choose a rug with the same pattern as your grey shaggy rug if you want to protect it.
