Colour & Design
Above all, the colour of your carpet is one
of the most important decisions in this selection process that you will make.
The key firstly is to choose what you like,
not one the trendy television presenter tells you to like. The wrong choice or
a one that is forced upon you will never give a satisfactory result. Colour
will set the mood and atmosphere within the room:
Green is said to be the colour of life. It
creates an environment where you can submerge your senses and recharge.
Resoundingly diverse, green is always fresh and vivid leaving energies renewed
and spirits harmonised.
Blue is perfect for work, play or relaxing.
Fun and sophisticated, cool blues are highly versatile allowing you to create
your perfect space.
Cream and beige are the ideal base colours
to start from. They create a feeling of tranquility, calm and silence, putting
you in touch with nature yet with the cleanliness of modern life-styles.
Gold and yellow give a mellow almost dreamy
atmosphere whilst giving a warm welcoming feel.
Terracotta gives a warm almost Mediterranean
feel reminding you of urns and sunshine and those happy days of summer.
Finally we have the deep burgundy and reds
which recreate the elegant Regency period which suits rooms of all sizes and
age, remaining forever timeless.
By choosing well you can make your home the
perfect environment for you and your family to live your lives. Be creative, be
inspired and be careful.
As with colour, design will play a big part
in the overall result achieved in your room. There are three definite design types:
plain, small patterns and heavy or traditional patterns. Each has its own
features and benefits that will help you decide the ideal style for you.
Plain
Plain carpets are easily matched with all
types of furnishings, both modern and traditional. Plain colours can be used to
create the optical illusion of making a room appear larger. It is also
economical when planning extra wide or adjacent areas, as there is no pattern
match to allow for.
Small Patterns
Small patterns are often regarded as a
halfway house between plain and larger designs. Whilst being patterned they
retain many of the benefits of a plain carpet such as the optical illusion of
making rooms appear larger. Even a small pattern however can help disguise some
of the effects of natural use such as soiling or pile flattening. Smaller
patterns require a much smaller allowance for pattern matches and therefore can
save money in rooms where joins are needed.
Large Patterns
Large patterns give that more traditional
look. They disguise many an accident spillage and tend to show the effects of
use (such as flattening or shading) less than plain or small patterned carpets.
They can be used to make a very large room feel smaller and inviting.
