Carpets in interior design Automatic translate

Can carpets be considered a relic of antiquity? Or can they look organic in a modern interior? If we are allowed to use them, what should the pile be, size, color, shape? Specialists from the Atelit interior studio talk about how to decorate a living space with carpets and fashion trends in production.

Floor carpets – what to choose?

Rugs can be placed on the floor or walls. It is generally accepted that they bring coziness, comfort and warmth to a living space. But this is only if you choose the right model and do not introduce dissonance into the interior style.

Carpets for living room and bedroom

Delicate colors are suitable for these rooms. Pastel colors are the best solution. Expressive designs, floral patterns, contrasting solutions, and 3D patterns are acceptable. Soft, long-pile carpets look great in the living room; they can fit the size of the room or occupy a specific area. For the bedroom, the ideal option is soft bedside rugs, which are pleasant to step on barefoot in the morning. You can lay a small rug near the mirror or dressing table.

Fashion news and trends

This season, designers are offering stylish contrasting solutions. Saturated colors are very relevant - blue, red, orange. But Atelit experts advise remembering that fashion is changeable, so you shouldn’t give up neutral classics. Look at design examples on studio websites, look for interesting solutions in the catalogs of carpet manufacturers and choose the option that you like best.

Rules for decorating interiors with carpets

1. In a room, no matter how big it is, it is not recommended to use more than one carpet.
2. There is no need to fill the walls and floors of every room with carpets and tapestries. You can place a tapestry in the living room, soft small rugs by the bed in the bedroom and leave it at that. Let there be photographs and posters on the walls; moderation is good in everything.
3. Always remember the unity of style. The carpet should not stand out from the overall design of the room, either in terms of style or color scheme.
4. See if the rug you want to buy matches other textiles in the room.
5. If you want to create a cozy corner with the help of a carpet, place a soft chair and a shelf with books nearby. This option is not bad for the living room. In the bedroom, the rug looks good next to the dressing table. If you are decorating the interior of a children’s room, pay attention to tapestries with images of animals and fairy-tale characters.
