Premier carpets such as Cormar carpets are more luxurious and warm but also hold more moisture than other carpet fibers. Eco- friendly and durability are the key qualities of a woolen carpet

Carpet Style Options for your Home

Carpet Styles available at carpet warehouses are of two types the loop pile and the cut pile. The loop pile has carpet fibers bent into little loops that have limited cushioning but are extremely suitable for high traffic areas. Multi-level loops, on the other hand, give a patterned texture to a carpet. Cut pile carpets are denser and softer while some are smooth and even like the plush, while others have twisted fibers like the Saxony. The frieze carpet also is known as the shag carpet has fibers of uneven length and are not recommended for high traffic areas. Cut and loop carpets combine the best of both forms and are extremely comfortable.

Color and Grading

The carpet area is one of the largest areas in a room and the color you choose can create or set the mood of the room. Always keep in mind dark colors absorb light making a room seem smaller while lighter colors project an air of spaciousness. Dark bold colors are better suited in large spaces but they also show more dust while light colored carpets can easily stain. It is wise to take carpet samples home to see if they match with your interiors and how it looks in different light.

 Carpet Style and Texture

Cut pile carpets are very similar to other natural textiles such as velvet and suede. They show light and dark areas because of the way they reflect light. A cut pile carpet is durable and feels luxurious. There are two main variants available at most carpet sales is the hard twist and the soft plush pile. For a more casual chic look go for the loop pile carpet. They may be textured, ribbed or chunky and very suitable for busy homes since they hide soil or dirt. Some carpets use a combination of cut and loop which creates a distinctive pattern while also retaining its dramatic tailored look.
