Carpet colors

Carpets are back in fashion. Modern manufacturers have a huge selection of materials - both natural and synthetic, so the shapes, textures and colors of these floor coverings are incredibly diverse. Everyone will find exactly what you need.

Despite the huge number of flaws that any carpet has (the need for cleaning, “picking up dust”, etc.), this item gives comfort and warmth to any interior. With it, you can put a bright accent, make the room brighter or add contrast to it. All designers love carpets, because they allow you to achieve amazing results.

The colors of the carpets that manufacturers offer today are varied. Fashionable and unfashionable options do not exist - it all depends on your chosen shades in the interior. However, designers, of course, distinguish certain colors as the most relevant.

In recent seasons, the ball is ruled by all shades of blue. Indigo, sky blue, gentle baby blue are welcomed in the decoration of walls, on carpets and curtains. The second most popular group of flowers - Marsala - shades of wine, burgundy, deep red. Since eco-style and a healthy lifestyle are also incredibly popular, it is fashionable to design interiors in natural colors. Beige, all variants of brown, terracotta, mustard are welcome here. The shades of gray in depth and saturation do not lose popularity from season to season.

For children's rooms bright colors are used - yellow, orange, raspberry, lime. Babies are suited for gentle pastel colors: beige, pink and blue, milk, mint, pistachio, peach.

This is a shade of mystery, mystics. Purple, lilac and other shades of lilac suit artistic bright natures. It is believed that the interior of purple should not be too much.Ideally, such a carpet should be a bright accent against the background of neutral walls and furniture. That is why most often designers choose such small carpets to emphasize the central part of the room or the area near the sofa. The most luxurious look purple long-pile shaggy carpets.

Carpets in this color are very practical. They are not too easily soiled, but at the same time they are not dark. Blue makes the interior fresh and cold. Such a carpet can be safely laid in a hot and sunny room, the windows of which face south. It will be perfectly combined with white furniture and wooden unpainted chairs and tables.

In many ways, it has the same features as blue. This color refreshes, cools. However, if the blue looks businesslike and a little solemn, then the blue looks more tender. This color is great for the living room, bedroom and children's room. In it both shaggy, and carpets, and even wattled models as mats look good. The best companion for the blue carpet - light furniture.

Juicy and bright, this color is not the most popular for the carpet. And yet, it looks great in the interior. It is usually used to design rooms in a contemporary style, with unusual and catchy furniture, original lamps, etc.Any carpet requires color "support" in the interior, and especially yellow. Hue must necessarily be repeated on pillows, curtains, lamp shades to make the design look complete. Alas, but this is one of the most branded options: the spots and dents on it are very clearly visible.

Warm and attractive color. Orange carpets can be in reserved brick tones, and can have a juicy orange shade. This color, unlike blue, "warms" the room. It is advisable to lay such a product in a room where the walls and the floor have a cold shade so that the visual “temperature” is not too high.

The saturation of pink color is very different - from delicate, almost white, to bright shades of fuchsia and crimson. Saturated colors in the interior will give a mature and passionate nature, but the babes are better suited delicate shades.

Barbie-inspired look for a teenage girl's room: bright pink carpet, white furniture, chairs with ottomans, cushions from eco-leather or faux fur. For the interior of a family bedroom or living room, you can choose a pinned pink version or a carpet with classic patterns.

Classic carpets are rarely produced in a purely black version. Usually black is complemented by red, gold patterns. Dark carpet absorbs space, so it is best to lay it in a large room. By itself, the model should be small or medium size, not the entire floor.

Monochrome black carpet can be seen in high-tech interiors, rooms with a minimalist design. This may be shaggy, carpet-skin, mat. Correctly chosen black rug model will look extremely impressive and status!

A universal color that fits in almost any room and fits any style. The brown carpet is not so whimsical in the care, as black, while it is quite dark and solid looks.

It is perfectly combined with different types of furniture, both from the massif, and from various plates.For classic, oriental, modern-style interiors, choose light shades of brown: walnut, coffee with milk. In the modern style look best deep colors - chestnut, dark chocolate, etc.

Another wagon. The beige carpet will suit any room - from the bedroom of the newborn to the large living room, and will be an excellent alternative to the white. Such a rug will be well combined with the furniture of dark colors, will highlight the dark parquet or beautiful boards on the floor.

You can safely lay the model in this color in a small room, because it will maximize space. Beige is a way out for those who find it difficult to make a choice, because the shades of this palette will fit in even where.

Most often, recommendations for choosing a carpet for different rooms are given regarding their shape, material and size. Indeed, in different rooms carpets will experience a different load. Color usually depends on the style that you plan to implement in a particular room. Although a number of recommendations professional designers can still give.

For the corridor or elongated hallway is best suited carpet. At the very entrance to the apartment it should be a dark model with a short nap. But do not choose plain colors. As a rule, the corridors in the apartments do not have natural light, so the carpet should have a light pattern, at least on the sides. If you want to lay carpeted corridor between the rooms, where they do not walk in outdoor shoes, you can choose a lighter option with a pile higher.

For bedrooms usually choose light carpets with medium or long nap. Depending on the interior, beige tones are suitable for this room, all pastel and powdery shades.

Dark carpets, if it is suitable for the style, lay in the living room, hall. In the same place, depending on the design, bright colors (orange, yellow, lime) or multi-colored models may appear, combining several juicy shades. Bright rugs are also suitable for children's rooms. It is only important to take into account the age of the child and the fact that a bright coating may act too strongly on the psyche.

For the kitchen or dining room, you can also find a successful model of the rug. It should not be branded. In the dining room is ideal mats. In order to not see too much dirt on the carpet, it is better to choose not a single-color model, but with a pattern or melange, i.e.woven from threads of different shades, due to which a colorful pattern with a small strip is obtained.

Many stores specializing in the sale of carpets, have a great service - free "fitting." This means that the buyer can leave a deposit, take the carpet home and spread it in the room to see how it will look in the interior. And this is the most reliable way to make the right choice, because even if everything is thought out to the smallest detail, being in a store is very difficult to imagine everything in combination. Moreover, in an apartment, even the shade of the carpet itself can look different than in a store where it is artificially illuminated.

In order not to have to carry a lot of carpets back and forth, and the choice to make quickly and accurately, there are several rules:

• Balance of brightness If the furniture in the room is bright, the carpet should be bright. If the furniture is bright by itself - the floor is better to take a neutral shade.
• Soft to soft. If the room has bright upholstered furniture (even if only one small sofa or chair), it is better to select the mat to its shade. It looks very elegant if the carpet does not repeat the color exactly,and is somewhere near the color palette.
• Contrast with the floor. If the room is bright and beautiful dark floor, the rug should be bright or bright.

• Support. This is the simplest method that every hostess can do. Just duplicate the shades of the carpet in the curtains and cushions. The room will immediately find a finished look.
• If the reception with the support of curtains seems too banal, add a rug to the sofa with a similar shade.
• If you want the carpet not to be too conspicuous, and full harmony and tranquility reigned in the interior, pay attention to such a technique - the carpet is chosen 1-2 shades lighter / darker than the floor covering. That is, the difference in color should be minimal.

• Do not pick up the carpet to match the walls. It looks too easy and boring.
• If the carpet has a geometric pattern, it does not mean that the furniture should be monotonous. Ideally, the direction of the lines on the carpet and the sofa will be in one direction, so that they sort of continue each other.
• The classic rule of horizontal and vertical stripes relative to the carpet “works” in the same way as in clothes: if the stripes on it go along the length of the room, the carpet will visually stretch it.If the stripes are across, they will “expand” the room.

In addition to color, the shape and size of the model is very important, because all these parameters usually work in combination. Small carpets usually allocate any area, put the emphasis. A small rectangular rug will look good near the sofa or under the coffee table. A round small model usually serves as “under something” - a vase or a round coffee table. It will be perfect if the round table and carpet are complemented by a round chandelier on the ceiling.

Medium-sized carpets are laid in the center of the room. Since there are still fairly large areas of the open floor, it is here that playing on contrasts and combinations is appropriate, since your floor and the floor covering are visible at the same time. Buying a large carpet, you can not worry about it too much.

Very "warm" room: the effect was due to the correct placement of accents. Colored carpet (if you look closely,all the colors of the spectrum are visible on it) harmonizes in the interior with decorative panels and other bright “dots” - vase, pillows. The colors of the floor and the sofa are also warm. All this is balanced by large windows and white walls. The result was bright, but comfortable for the eyes.

A small long pile mat highlights the central part of the living room. Designers unusual approach to the issue of color: shades are taken from one palette, the emphasis is placed on the decoration of chairs. The floor mat attracts little attention, but it accentuates the table of the original form.

Contrast styles. The room to retro-style: cozy sofas, a fireplace, a lamp "antique". A large bicolor carpet with a pattern in the form of zigzags gives modernity and dynamics. Black and white picture diluted bright spots of pillows on the sofas. If they were not there, they would have dazzled his eyes from this original carpet.

Bright pink carpet - not only for Barbie-style rooms. Knowing the rules of color combination, you can create a surprisingly strict and at the same time non-banal interior. In this bedroom, all gray - bed, walls and curtains. A bright pink-rug effect is complemented by an abstract painting, naive wallpaper stickers and an armchair. By the way, the area of ​​the chair is highlighted by an additional blue carpet of a very cold shade.
