Trendy carpets with pictures

There is hardly a more pleasant flooring than a carpet. Neither warm parquet, nor linoleum, nor a cool tile will give such a feeling of softness and home warmth, like a carpet pile. In addition to insulation, they have a decorative function, complementing and decorating the interior with drawings.

Long since people warm and decorate the houses with wattled cloths. In the past, it was a pleasure only for wealthy people, and now the choice meets every taste and wallet. The variety of styles, shades and textures is amazing.

No one can deny that a room covered with a carpet feels warmer and more comfortable. In addition to aesthetics, they have the following functions:

• Soundproofing;
• Space zoning;
• Creating accents.

Typically, the floor covering with a pattern is one of the final chords in the interior and is bought into an already finished room, but there are such non-standard products that the entire interior design is built from the carpet.

They look good by the bed, in front of the couch or between the chairs. An average-sized carpet will look good in small rooms, giving a feeling of coziness and comfort.

Bright little rugs of unusual shapes set the room a cheerful tone and transform a boring interior.

Round models are not so much warmed and create sound insulation, as they decorate and zone the room.

In addition to shape and color, carpets share the look of the pile. There are two main types of coatings:

• Single-level products with uncut loops of the same height. Their surface and pattern are uniform, and the quality depends on the equal length of the villi;
• Multilevel - canvas with loops of different lengths, creating lush ornaments and patterns. Beautiful, custom and comfortable products.

Many manufacturers, trying to outperform the competitors, create new textures and color combinations, experiment with methods of weaving, torsion of loops. For example, models with intersecting split pile. This innovation involves the industrial production of products that were previously created only by hand.On sale there are carpets with wavy pile, from velor or a plush material.

On the back of each carpet there is a label with information on the composition of the material and its properties. The cheapest price segment is headed by polypropylene models. Low cost, perhaps the only advantage of such products. Disadvantages will be high electrification, intolerance to moisture and sunlight. In addition, such interior items absorb dust and are difficult to clean with a vacuum cleaner. The term of operation makes from 2 to 5 years.

The cost of kapron variants is somewhat higher. In such products, loops are fixed to the base of synthetics with a special latex mixture. Carpets from nylon are durable and practical.

Knitted base models are elastic and good quality. They are produced by simultaneously weaving both the base and the nap.

The most expensive and high-quality option will be a carpet of natural wool.Such products are an environmentally friendly product, in addition, they are fire resistant. With proper care, the carpet will last more than 50 years.

The disadvantage of wool carpets will be a poor color palette. Unfortunately, wool is stained worse than synthetic products. Usually, wool carpets are made in light pastel shades. Wool products are prone to moths and molds, and therefore require special care.

The best option is a product with a mixed composition, which allows you to save the beauty of natural material, adding strength and simplicity in operation.

In the classical view, the patterns on carpets are floral and geometric. The first are stylized parts of plants: leaves, flowers, stems. Geometric patterns made up of lines and geometric shapes. The technique of weaving carpets has not changed much over the centuries, but the images on them are now completely different.

The intricate ornaments of Oriental canvases, as a rule, were filled with meaning. And modern products are extremely simple - no secret signs, the drawing is clear and clear, whether it is the British flag, the panorama of London or the print with roses.

Diamonds, stars, circles and abstract images are more popular than ever. Contrast color palette, symmetry of lines and figures, fancy drawing: such models are a stylish accent of a modern interior.

Floral and geometric motifs are still relevant today, but they are far from the ideas of our ancestors. In addition, the ornament can be composed of any, the most unexpected, repetitive images.

Modern designers allow themselves to play with classic patterns. Some "weave" something into the oriental pattern, turning it into a current designer interior item. Interesting models are obtained using modern color combinations in a classic pattern or even using a monochrome scale.

In addition to deer, there were products with lions and simply with nature. Items deficiency, as a rule, hung on the most prominent place in the living room.

In the USSR, people neglected the vacuum cleaner and more often carried the carpet belongings to the horizontal bars. Wall carpets, in addition to the aesthetic function, poorly missed sounds, which was a godsend for thin-walled Khrushchev. And the carpet was well covered with spots and wallpaper torn by a cat.
