The perfect work of art for your floor - the carpet
A carpet is much more than just a comfortable and functional floor covering. Rather, it is an expression of aesthetics, art and personality. A beautiful rug can instantly add cozy and positive energy to a room. Here's how to choose the perfect floor covering for your room to make it cozy and cheerful.
Space & function
First of all, of course, you should think about the purpose and the room where the carpet should be placed. This is very important in order to be able to identify the right type of rug. For example, a hard-wearing rug is a perfect solution for the dining room or hallway, while a fluffy rug is more suitable for the living room or bedroom. It's not just about comfort, but also about functionality. In areas where you walk around a lot, a hard-wearing and durable floor covering that is easier to clean is the best solution. Such a rug will look good for a long time, even if you walk on it constantly. For the bedroom, however, where you probably value comfort, you should prefer a soft, fluffy floor covering.
Size & position
The second step is to determine the size and position of the rug. It is important to adjust the size of the rug to the proportions and furniture in the room. The size should fit well with the size of the room. A rug that is too small will unbalance the room, while a rug that is too large will overwhelm the room. Living rooms are usually large and we therefore recommend a large rug that also fits under the couch or coffee table, for example. It would be good if the floor was still visible so that the room looks balanced and not too cluttered. For the bedroom, choose a rectangular rug that fits well under the bed and extends on both sides and at the foot of the bed. Alternatively, if you don't want to fit a large rug, you can place two long runners along the sides of the bed under the bedside table. Instead, we recommend a large rug for the dining room that covers the entire dining area - the dining table and all the chairs.
Shape
The right rug shape depends on the room and its design. Rectangular rugs are classic and practical and work well in the living room, bedroom and dining room. They are perfect for rooms with large pieces of furniture such as beds, sofas and chairs, making them an ideal solution for these three rooms. A rectangular rug can also be used as a carpet runner in the hallway. Round rugs can add an interesting accent to the room. They are a real eye-catcher and can be placed under certain pieces of furniture. In the living room you can place a round floor rug under the coffee table, in the bedroom - under the bedside table and in the dining room - under the table. Round rugs under rectangular furniture create an interesting accent, while round rugs under round furniture create a more harmonious look. If you want to give your home a unique look, opt for free-form rugs. These create a particularly artistic atmosphere and are an eye-catcher in any room - the work of art for your floor.
Style & Design
Match the floor covering to the style and design of your room. It is important that the style, design and color of the rug harmonize well with the furniture in the room and create a pleasant atmosphere.
