What are some of the trends in carpets and rugs?
Current trends can be summed up with three words: pattern, color and texture. Today’s carpets and rugs come in a wide range of options, from rich cut piles and patterned berbers to fabric-inspired braids, that work well with today’s favorite looks. Berbers are especially popular, since they can be kept virtually footprint-free and are easy to care for. This carpet is suitable wherever a casual look is desired. Area rugs, meanwhile, feature a blending of fabrics to create interesting styles. For instance, braided rugs today employ a variety of different fabrics-from wools to cottons to blends. They come in patterns and colors to coordinate with any decor. Check with your local independent floor covering dealer for the best selection and latest trends.
