At first glance, it may seem that a carpet is an element of the interior that has long been outdated and was popular only in Soviet times. This is not so.

Even in the modern world, such a product can perfectly complement the interior. But here it is important to choose the right carpet so that it really makes the room more stylish and cozy.

Pile

First of all, when choosing, you should pay attention to the pile.

A product with thick pile is perfect for a bedroom or living room. If there are small children or pets in the house, you can also consider options with short pile, so as not to complicate the cleaning process.

Compound

Next, you need to pay attention to the composition of the product. Natural materials that are softer to the touch always look advantageous.

Synthetic materials are more affordable and come in a variety of colors.

Size

Most often, for the living room, designers recommend choosing carpets of such a size that they are wider than the sofa and cover the entire area under this upholstered furniture.

Form

If you need to zone the space, then preference should be given to round shapes. In the case when we are talking about a small room, then a square carpet will look advantageous.

For a more cozy and warm environment, skins are suitable. In the latter case, you can choose good options from artificial materials.

Pattern

If the living room is done in neutral tones, you can create an accent with a pattern on the carpet. Here it should be taken into account that the pattern goes better with a single-color floor.

In this case, you should approach the choice in such a way that the color of the ornament matches the decor and overall style.

For example, an abstract design will fit well into a minimalist, Scandinavian or neoclassical style.
