Some new trends in carpets
Carpets are a classic way to cover the flooring in your home. They look fancy, good and provide soft cushion under the feet. Even being around for centuries, they have not lost their touch and now are available in modern designs too. They are available in a variety of colours, designs and patterns and can be easily found in the market. Carpets, if maintained correctly, can be easier to clean and maintain. This article provides some information on the new trends in carpets these days.

Color and Texture
A major shift in new products is toward layered color and soft texture in carpet. A combination of texture and pattern will always be popular because it minimizes soil and vacuum marks. But the other advantage is that color and texture offer more distinctive styling and fashion appeal.
Applied and woven patterns — in designs of leaves, trellises, or flowers, for example — offer organic shapes that coordinate easily with patterns in other furnishings. Strong colours that come from commercial pallets are now available in multi-coloured loops, cut loop surfaces, and Berber styles as accents. For a wall-to-wall colour statement, traditional Saxony and textured Saxony offer the broadest selections.
These new products are changing the public’s perception of carpet as only a background to showcase other furnishings to the possibility that the carpet itself can become a design focus.
Carpet Construction
New manufacturing capabilities have produced many new looks in carpets constructed with cut and loop yarns and in high- and low-loop yarns. Examples include swirls, bows, lattices, plaids, pin dots, and fleurs-de-lis.
Along with paint, carpet can be one of the easiest ways to personalize an environment. Its color can be a neutral foundation or a vibrant focal point.
