With so many options to spruce up modern living room designs, floor covering products are not behind in the trend. When it comes to living room floors, carpets offer a fair number of advantages over the downsides in comparison to hard surfaces.

  • Felt

  • Cotton 

 

A few good ideas that make carpets stand out in any living room design! 

 

Why should your living room floors have carpets? 

  • Be it any room of the house, carpets offer comfort to the feet as well as the interiors! 

  • With carpets in living rooms, insulation value is an added advantage in cold weather. 

  • This might be news, but carpets make a living room seem more peaceful than hard floors. This is because surfaces like concrete cannot absorb sound, unlike soft surfaces. 

  • Carpeting the floors provides safety. Hard floors make it prone to slips and fall, but carpets provide a smooth landing surface. 

  • Generally, carpets are cost effective options in comparison to maintaining hard floors. Carpets may be laid over a variety of sub-floors and have significantly fewer installation requirements. 

  • Carpets are style statements in living rooms. With over a thousand designs to choose from, every living room will find a piece that fits the room like a puzzle! 

  • Carpeting the living room is a great way to add a pop of colour! 

  • What’s a better way to hide dirt than carpeting the living room floors? Maintaining carpets are not as complicated as many see it. Occasional vacuum cleaning is all it takes for a clean living room floor. 

 

Why should you be concerned about living room carpets? 

Well, carpets have a set of drawbacks too. And we won’t lie. 

  • Even the most durable carpets get worn out in busy living rooms. Regardless of the material, carpets tend to get matted down after a while. 

  • Carpets need to be replaced periodically, owing to their durability. 

  • For home owners with dust allergies and poor respiratory health, carpets can be unfavourable as they can hoard particles on the surface. 

  • With little children and pets around, carpets are prone to staining, animal dander and dust mites. 

  • Carpets cannot protect floors from moisture. 

  • If homes are located in places with a humid climate, carpets in living rooms are susceptible to mould. 

  • Thick carpets can make a room look smaller, hence this may not be the best idea in small living room designs. 

 

Styling a living room design is not just confined to furniture and design layout, but to decor accessories that include floor fabrics like carpets and rugs. The location of a carpet may either free up space or make a living room appear congested. Therefore, homeowners should have a clear notion of where they want to put a carpet before purchasing one.
