Carpets that decorate the home must have good texture, attractive color, and now they must also be sustainable. Keeping these details in mind, you can choose a beautiful carpet for the entrance or the living room, as well as for the kitchen or bedroom, making each space look special with a detail like this. It’s easy to understand why carpets are always “trendy” because they always enhance the decor.
Brown and beige color trends are in, but let’s not forget the vibrant colors for those who prefer them! This year, two trends will be very popular: neutral colors and more striking ones. And many will be pleased to know that these trends are betting on the reign of neutral colors. These colors are always present in decoration and not only when it comes to carpets. They are very versatile to combine, convey feelings of comfort, and also look very elegant.
So, we see the triumphant return of brown, moving away from the elegant gray tones that triumphed in recent years. And now you can choose various shades of brown. As you know, there are soft shades of brown that bring a very valued sensation of warmth and comfort. In this sense, although less than brown, we will see many carpets in shades of beige. And in solid color or prints of various shades and contrasts that are liked so much.
Those who enjoy choosing their carpet this 2024, with soft neutral tones, will also wish to bring color to the floor of the bedroom or hallway. For them, the most vibrant colors will be noticeable. Let’s not forget that the more intense color tones can contrast or combine with the neutral colors of walls and furniture. It works the same in reverse, furniture of vibrant colors and a beautiful carpet in a neutral color. Either is a great choice.
Regarding “happy” and “vibrant” colors, the trend leans towards deep blue, intense green, and warm orange. Floral, geometric, abstract patterns are all in vogue. There is something for every taste, and all will be fashionable. Some of these designs bring the nostalgic touch that some enjoy in decoration.
It’s not easy to choose between two trends as attractive and elegant as these, which also blend wonderfully with many decorative styles. The best thing is to consider what we want our environment to project. The colors of the carpet contribute to enhancing the beauty of the surroundings.
Soft and light tones of beige and brown will illuminate a room, while those colors with more intensity and depth will make it look more comfortable. Of course, personal taste and existing decoration always prevail. It may happen that the trending neutral colors don’t work in a home’s decoration. That’s when the alternative of more intense colors can be useful.
Neutral colors, we insist, have the advantage of combining with any decoration. For this reason, they will be even more popular for being timeless. This makes a carpet more economical in the long run as it will withstand several seasons without going out of style.
Now that we’ve discussed the two significant color trends for carpets in 2024, we must consider before thinking about texture and ecology, some other colors. For example, light colors look magnificent and continue to be highly appreciated. They have the advantage of creating a sensation of greater size in the space where you place your carpet. They are part of many decorative styles.
These attractive-colored carpets are not so popular for home environments because they tend to get dirty more quickly. This results in greater maintenance effort and cost because they ruin more quickly than dark colors like solid brown or prints.
The texture of your carpet is important. Textured carpets, also called are an economical option because they are durable and comfortable. Easier to deal with small inconveniences because they do not get damaged as easily as others with furniture. You may have noticed very delicate carpets where furniture has left marks of their weight; this does not happen with this type of carpets. They are also easy to clean.
Even though textured carpets do not have the wonderful finish of plush carpets, they are durable and also soft. They adapt to modern home life, high-traffic environments, and rooms with children and pets. Hence, we see more and more designs of textured carpets, which bet on the advantages we have mentioned. And they will look great in your home environments.
Regarding the touch texture, carpets have finishes that can be very soft or very hard depending on the fibers. These are usually of different heights and are what allow the design. The trend leans towards details of texture in loops, twists, and patterns of cut pile. That allows enjoying very attractive surfaces that are added to the aesthetics of decoration. And that turn out to be very comfortable.
We refer at this moment to the tactile texture of the carpet. That can be very different, very luxurious or very soft, depending on the material. This is where the texture is noticeable in the softness of the carpet when walking on it. Depending on whether it is made of wool, cotton, velvet, natural fibers, and other materials.
Your carpet, in addition to having texture and color, must be sustainable. As we have addressed in other entries, sustainability is more important than ever. And it must be taken into account in all aspects of everyday life. Of course, in this includes decoration and this leads us to the choice of carpet, which must have color, texture, and softness. But it must be very sustainable; it’s not impossible to achieve it.
Choose a carpet made with eco-friendly materials, there are many options, for example, fibers such as sisal, wool, or cotton. They look very good in some styles where they integrate wonderfully like minimalistic and Boho. But they can be the beautiful contrasting detail in other decorative styles. All of them promote, besides attractiveness and comfort, a more sustainable and healthier decoration.
There’s enough color, if you like neutrals, and if not, you can go for more striking colors. Choose from nostalgic prints like tribal or floral, which are imposing. A carpet that is attractive but with good texture that makes it durable and easy to clean. Without giving up the softness of a texture that is seen and felt very and that we like so much. A carpet that joins the most current trend, having an eco-friendly home… but always cozy and attractive. You will like these inspiring suggestions.
